Which makes mathematics the most honorable thing one might experience in this world. As Celine in Before Sunrise would say "The answer lies in the attempt". The answer to why we study mathematics is all about the attempt.

The DNA of any two people on Earth is 99.6% identical. (Entry #22: between2numbers.com/21-30.ht…) We can help Ss understand that race is a social construct, not biological or genetic. Happy Friday, everyone. ❤️

"In the US school system, 53% represents the percentage of students of color in the US school system. Numerically they're not in the minority. They're historically excluded from high-quality education. Purposefully." - @DrKChilds #OURHIVE

Every day we have a choice. We can choose to be positive or to be negative. We can choose to be grateful and see the good in all that have or we can let anger, fear, doubt, and insecurities rob us of our joy and the life we're meant to live.

Teacher just texted me "the students struggle anytime I ask them to think for themselves." TRUTH and they resist, but it is important that we keep asking them to do the thinking and not rescue them from thinking.
