Removing numbers and reducing scaffolding from word problems will help students better understand the task at hand! They can determine what info is needed and think logically before jumping into solving! #iteachmath #mtbos #EDUC406 @UDCEHD

@CBSNews @nickbaker80 This is so cool! A student in MA took action to make her roads safer. She is participating in civic engagement in a way that could never be learned with a textbook. Would ❤️ to see more of this in schools!

@MsAlyssaPotts1 @nickbaker80 @nickbaker80 the video interview is at the end of the article! :) she says learning where the states are located on the map is a middle school standard in her state!

@MsAlyssaPotts1 @nickbaker80 Ms. Prentice talks about how she needs to make modifications when teaching her ELLs the 50 states.They practice pronouncing the states and capitals, matching them and placing them on the map. We need more teachers like her to get ALL students excited to learn this!
