I did this lesson a few years ago with my fourth graders, and it was a hit! The perfect challenge that was great for problem solving, critical thinking, and playing. I highly recommend checking out these activities! #PlayWithMath #MathEd

Wow, I have not even opened Twitter since school started on August 18. If that does not tell you how busy teachers are, I don't know what will... #teacher #education #TeacherTwitter #mathteacher #distancelearning

Almost every school will look somewhat different, and its going to be uncomfortable for a bit. The best thing you can do it CHOOSE to have the best attitude and effort everyday. Love your students, colleagues, family, and yourself! #weareoneteam

Love and grace is what we need. @Caamp

This is so important! Just like we are not "on" all of the time, we cannot expect our students to be as well. #AltEdChat
Replying to @mindfullymath
A5: The first step in self-care is committing to taking time for yourself! So I remind my students that if they need to take a break, it’s okay! If today is a day where they need to just do work silently, it is okay! We don’t always have to be ā€œonā€! It’s hard to keep that up!
