Come work with me! @codepted is seeking candidates for three (3) math specialist positions to implement parts of the recently passed bill HB23-1231. See the posting here:

https://t.co/ZdVvR8WStV

The application closing date for these positions is the end of the day, July 7.

@HthrLynnJ @codepted As hybrid positions, they could live anywhere in Colorado. Currently we meet in Denver no more than one day a month.

@TinaCardone Books on vinyl would be a thing if they existed. A heavy, cumbersome thing.

@geonz @bowmanimal It's one thing to think, "In terms of three-point-one-fours," but very abstract to think, "in terms of ratios of the circle's circumference to its diameter."

@wtgowers One of my favorite articles in #mathed theorizes why this is hard: mathematical conceptions include processes and objects, and it's hard to make the leap to thinking of a process (like we are introduced to functions) as the object in another process. https://t.co/O0eQpH0W2I

@ilana_horn @HthrLynnJ @annehelen I've had a rather negative, albeit uninformed, reaction to Substack. When blogs are generally independent and free and RSS is independent and free, I struggle to be convinced that I need to participate in another company's money-making scheme.

Meet Marley Horn, whose love of coaching soccer was her first foray into working with children. However it was her work in a bilingual elementary classroom that sealed her fate and love for teaching. Meet our 2023 Outstanding Grad in Elementary Education: https://t.co/rmAIIw523e

@saravdwerf The thing I generally *want* to say (but don't) is, "Do you have any idea how not-good you are at lots of things? And how okay that is? Math has a way of making you feel like you're not good at it when, in fact, you're fine. Maybe even better than fine. Just like lots of things."

[Benjamin Riley @benjaminjriley]

From Chat GPT: "When teaching a four-year-old to read, it is important to understand the child's learning style and tailor the instruction accordingly...Every child has a unique learning style, which may include visual, auditory, or kinesthetic (hands-on) learning." Cool, cool.

@karlfisch None are currently recording, and some aren't plugged in or turned on, but we are totally surrounded by lenses and sensors at this point.

[Raymond Johnson @MathEdnet]

@karlfisch Ever stop to really think about how many cameras there are everywhere? It could be an interesting mathematical investigation for students. I'm in my home office and I count about a dozen if I include front and rear for a tablet and 2 phones, webcams, and what's in my camera bag.

Are you a Mathematics Leader or Math Coach who wants to challenge unproductive beliefs through self-reflection, coaching conversations, and enhance your coaching skills?

If so, then check out our Summer Leadership Academies #NCSMBold #NCSMSLA23 Info: https://t.co/tnO1xjU5uQ

@ilana_horn I wonder if we've over-focused on class size, and how much that could be a factor in this. At least in secondary, the quick way to smaller class sizes is to teach more class periods and give up potential planning time.

[Raymond Johnson @MathEdnet]

@ddmeyer I know we'd all like it if teaching fit into 8 practices instead of 19, but this is one of those that the @TeachingWorks folks got right and make it worth having a longer list. https://t.co/z8xcPZfc5B
