We shouldn't be trying to remove struggle from math. We should be adding it back in--and without the performance adjective of "productive".
Mathematics is not a a chore or a project.
Mathematics is a lifetime devotion to beauty.
We teach the skeleton of math; not the soul.
Summer is almost over & I am excited to announce that we will be joining the @WorcesterAcdmy family! I will be teaching Grade 8 math and be a dorm parent!
Any advice on teaching Geometry or boarding school would be appreciated!

@mathdunnright We are moving back to the US just outside Boston to Worcester! I didn't think our international journey would end so soon but for now home with family is the best place to be โบ๏ธ
@kruevans ๐ I am sorry to hear that! We gave been abroad for 4 years and are heading back to the US but mainly because of family and COVID. I definitely want to come back international in the future.
Please reach out if you wanna chat! Know you aren't alone!
@JenniferWathall Absolutely! I like to think of it as organized chaos. There are structures in place to help students succeed and foster deeper understand.
A myth about #StudentAgency is that Ss are completing all their work by themselves on whatever topic they want and it is complete chaos in the classroom.
