@ddmeyer Great piece! Is NYC and their IM onslaught reading this

@mfc248 What horrible bets!!
Holly should have won
Then once she blew it… Daniel had it!

@kimdayers @bielleogy I’d need to know a lot more about this student before making a blind judgement. This could be a great thought or simply copying what they saw with no insight (and possibly no reading)

@howie_hua I always think of 20% off as 80% on! $80x .8 = $64
I just multiply 8 x 8 = 64
And adjust the decimal to what I think the answer should look like
…. 64 or 6.4 or .64

@MathTechCoach @desmosclassroom Dude, you rule!
I don’t even know how you find the time to do all of these amazing activities on multiple platforms… is there some kind of clone-thing going on?

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@MathTechCoach @desmosclassroom Love to do this with my Summer School kids! Thx as always for great activities @MathTechCoach

@ImTired81401613 @stoodle Tell us how you really feel!

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@stoodle Our school is much smaller than @bobsonwong but the four of us have found it very efficient also… and the not-waiting-around part makes it a smooth operation.

@missradders @MrKitMath I have found that many of my lower-level 9th graders remember that they heard KFC or KCF… but they don’t know how or when to use it, I don’t like it… but I support those that use it correctly. I would never teach this trick

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@karimkai @TheMathGuru You can’t really believe that we teach the standards so they can specifically be used in a career… math class is about problem solving, building reasoning skills, discovering patterns and relationships and much more.

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

How about just hard-coding “works best 1-on-1” into every IEP… and put it under the category “No Duh”

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@GiftedTawk I vote for trying to hit as many of the senses (hear, speak, see, do) as possible with each topic or lesson. I’ve found the combination to be most effective

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@bobsonwong @TenCountyMath Hey wait! I forgot to get mine signed!

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@teachergrind I never say “over”…. Always “divided by”…. Gotta do it

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@Angela_Watson Wait…. Who grades the math tests for 100+ ?? In a 40 minute prep period? Yikes

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@caribeanpirate Wow! Redic!

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@DrCIKingdom And some of us teach Summer School, too…

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@bobsonwong @mathillustrated Well said

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@DrEugeniaCheng @Jamie71018484 @DrAnthonyMeijer You’ve got a serious power strip monster going there!

[Scott Taylor @TaylorMath]

@bobsonwong Tell us how you really feel, Bobson…. (Ummmm… I agree!)
