Today's warm-up: I challenged my students to use this amazing artwork to create their own word problems. I'll be posting my favs over the next few days. They did this while listening to "Try Everything" by @shakira

Official classroom theme song this year, "Try Everything" by @shakira

Amazing growth mindset lyrics, embracing of mistakes, GRIT

If @shakira wants to perform it for us I'll be her backup dancer 🕺

New year, new board!

Decided to highlight "failures" that my students can connect with. What are you planning to start the year?

Looking for ways to enhance collaboration & communication when your students are doing #STEM?

Implement a planning time when students can't touch materials and can only talk if they hold the Idea Stick!

Your face when your students should be hitting the books, but instead they are "hittin' the woah!"

Happy SOL season!

Why do we learn properties? To make math make sense! Can you calculate 16% of 50 in your head? What if I told you it's the same as 50% of 16? Bet you said it was 8...you need to know the rules in order to play the game!
