What better way to wrap up #LitMath25 than with @howie_hua talking about building math confidence? We’ll wait. 🤔

[Ms. Lignan Math @mslignanmath]

@mr_stadel Thank you so much for responding. So happy to hear the site will be back. I love it!!!!

@mr_stadel Can't get on Estimation 180. Is it temporarily or permanently shut down?

Teachers at this elementary school found that “I do, we do, you do” made their kids overly dependent on them for solutions—so they overhauled their math curriculum.

@Dean_of_math I can't find you.

[Ms. Lignan Math @mslignanmath]

@techknowmath Just followed you!

@rickwormeli2 @JamesLaFontain I love block scheduling! However, it’s really challenging when I don’t see my students everyday.

THIS. The primary purpose of any assessment is to drive student learning.

[Melissa D @Dean_of_math]

Students need feedback. But what they need even more is time to use that feedback.

[Ms. Lignan Math @mslignanmath]

@NolanFossum @Dean_of_math @NCTM @LatrendaK @kdykema I’m sad to have missed it too.

[Monte Syrie @MonteSyrie]

I don’t keep a grade book.

I keep a learning record.

Yes, there’s a difference.

In how I see it.

In how my kids see it.

In how their parents see it.

Seems the only ones who have a hard time “seeing it” are those educators who can’t quite change their grading mindset.

My suggestion?

Try a learning mindset.

It changes how we see things.

@Alex_Calleros I had similar thoughts after watching Joker.

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

When students reach high school math, play typically disappears from the curriculum. It doesn't have to. @MathforLove

High School Math Can Be Playful, Too

@howie_hua 37 is an odd number. You better make 38. Hell, I'd just round to 40. 🤣

[Ms. Lignan Math @mslignanmath]

@Sneffleupagus @teacher2teacher I’d probably say the same thing to you. 🤪
