I worry that mathematics is too often taught as if it’s bad-tasting medicine that students just have to take, rather than teaching it with the purpose of showing off its beauty and elegance, and feeling joy when engaging in it. The Ontario curriculum makes a point in describing this as a goal in mathematics learning. How incredible would it be if we approached the teaching and learning of math like this? dcp.edu.gov.on.ca/en/curricu…

People use “foundational knowledge” as an excuse for regressive pedagogies but no one can define it. All knowledge is foundational after you build on it.
Much of the variation in math understanding is because some students lack foundational prior knowledge. When teaching fails to recognize the existence of those knowledge gaps, those students fall farther and farther behind, amplifying the class-wide disparities.

A few years ago I built a catalogue of thinking tasks that were shared with me. Its since been added to and updated in an easy to access format. The link below gives access. #mtbos @KirstDy @pgliljedahl @NolanFossum @pearse_margie @Sneffleupagus docs.google.com/document/d/1…

Ya'll @ctfosnot is brilliant. The way so many are handling "learning loss" and "acceleration" is just so well intentioned and misguided. And so based on fake math, not real math. Let them math! #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathIsFigureOutAble #Elemmathchat #MSmathchat #MathStratChat

Math education has been guilty of doing this. Worse. Math education has been guilty of ignoring doing this. Yeah. I'll take my my wisdom from a mathematician, philosopher, educator, and writer--and who cowrote Principia Mathematica with Bertrand Russell. @HumResPro
