Do your students object to having to document their work, opinions and ideas in notebooks? Share how some people used their notebooks as a place to store ideas, review their work and consider modifications. blogs.loc.gov/teachers/2023/… #edchat #sschat #nsta

What a great way to help students form a positive math identity! Do YOU have a favorite activity to start the year? We’d love to hear your ideas! @NCTM @MathICTM
First day of the semester and continuing the tradition of students taking a picture with this frame. So many people don't believe they are a math person but I learned from Atomic Habits that it STARTS with identity, and everything else follows.

Public schools are not failing students. Public school teachers are not failing students. The system is failing public schools, teachers and students. Stop saying public schools and teachers are failing students when the system is setting them up to fail.

I was lucky to meet the awesome teachers from @KyCharge and chat Sanborn Maps! What does this map from Kentucky make you wonder? @TeachingLC #EinsteinFellows22
