Thank you Superintendent Baca @LASchoolsNorth and @MsDamonte for visiting our classrooms for @IllustrateMath instruction and @UFLiteracy academies! It was a pleasure to have you at our school.🌟 #weareSylvanPark @LASchools @LAUSD_Achieve @LAUSDDepSupInst @ScottAtLAUSD – at Los Angeles, CA
Sylvan Park hosted Dr. Baca at Sylvan Park. Great programs, clearly everyone is working hard for their students @sandraeduc8 @LASchoolsNorth
8th Graders @MaclayMiddle in Ms. Frias' English class are becoming experts at using the Lines of Communication Protocol to get new ideas from each other around analyzing character relationships in the StudySync text. @LASchoolsNorth @MMEDLAUSD @studysync

It was an honor to have you join us Dr. Bryant! #inspirationalleader 🌟
It’s never to late to express gratitude or too much gratitude to express! I know this was a thank you for presenting a few months back but thank you @ACSARegion16 Women in Leadership 2023 Committee officially for this awesome thank you gift. It sits in my office, right where I can look up from my computer and view it. It reminds me to keep what’s important at the forefront! May the 2023-24 school year be your best year yet sisters! 👏❤️💪 @FrancesBaez10 @davalos_ileana @DoloresHuerta @SMMendoza123 @LASchoolsNorth @HeidiBaker_Te @margieacsa @KFuentesLAUSD @sandraeduc8 @kimi_mac @ACSA_info @ACSAXVII #SisterCircleLWF #EdBranding #LeadLAP #TLAP #TellYourStory #BeAConnecter

Hot take from @ddmeyer: “Math classes often ask students to write down the results of someone ELSE’S mathematizing…”
Do you agree? #mtbos #Math #iteachmath #maththerapypodcast

Acts of kindness that feel small to us have a big impact on others.
Research: kids and adults underestimate how tiny acts of generosity lift others' moods.
There's no easier way to make someone's day than to offer a compliment, give a little gift, or send a handwritten note.

In Kindergarten today…we counted by tens, extending from fives done last week. They noticed a lot! #choralcounting

Rehearsing routines with teacher teams has been a great tool for my coaching work. You can read more about it and see some pages from #6ToolsforMathCoaches in this Math Monday blog post: blog.stenhouse.com/math-mond…
I was lucky enough to be at a school on the 1st day of the salad bar opening! Heaps of lettuce/veggies! The lettuce to veggie to ranch ratio was considered by all...kids crafted their own and loved it! @LASchoolsNorth
Salad Bar is now open! So much fun today launching our new Salad Bar! Thank you to our wonderful cafeteria manager, and APs for making it extra fun for our students! 🥦🥕🍅🥬 #healthyeating #healthychoices

In kindergarten today… one of my students sat at her desk during the image talk (all others students sat on the rug) from #buildfactfluency @stenhousepub I let her have her space, she said she was writing it all down so she can show her 3 year old sister. K rules!

Each time she is given a new block, she starts counting all the blocks from the beginning. This stage of counting is known as the “count-all” stage. @eriksonmath Brilliant site for early Maths. Counting Principles earlymath.erikson.edu/?s=cou…

ALT At TODOS, we recognize that all humans belong and are worthy of respect. To classify any humans as “illegal immigrants” upon appearance is racist, dehumanizing, and wrong. As an organization we continue to pledge to dismantle systems and structures that maintain racism, both in our larger communities and within teaching and learning mathematics, through challenging belief systems that perpetuate microaggressions. We invite you to join us to do the same.
