It only appears once… and it’s in the modeling SMP, not content.

Wanna guess “combine like terms?”

Curious what other things we teach that aren’t in the CCSS.

less. :)

Play with me #iteachmath folks… Without looking it up, how many times does the word “simplify” appear in the CCSS K-12? #mtbos

one move i’ve been playing with:

when i invite Ss to turn and talk during standing launch or consolidation, i move behind the group while they talk. i’ve found that it promotes more discussion. then i go back up in front of group when it’s time for whole group discussion.

anyone else try this?

Love it! Is this a move you make during consolidation or during a launch? Or both?

To my #thinkingclassrooms colleagues: What is a small micro-move that you’ve recently discovered that gets Ss thinking and/or taking more responsibility for their learning? #iteachmath

Why do we spend so much effort/time delineating between expressions and equations? Don’t all expressions represent a value?

I’m teaching a #thinkingclassroom lesson on “evaluating expressions” and it’s got me thinking of when it clearly matters if exp or eq. and i don’t have a good case. do you?

A Building Thinking Classroom

Stoked for my #thinkingclassroom workshop today in Miamisburg, OH. Gonna be a great group of teachers to learn from and grow with. #ITeachMath #MTBoS @btcthinks.bsky.social @erinnull.bsky.social

So, how best to go about using my 5 invite codes to bring other #ITeachMath members over from Twitter? I don’t just want to sit on them… But I also don’t want to DM folks either. Advice?

the funny part is that i have about the same space as i did in some of studio apartments i lived in in Venice Beach when you factor in a queen size bed in the apartment. in my truck, the bed gets made and put away every day. so im either in bedroom mode or living/work mode.

The Traveling Stoop To go further, you must let go. And if, after letting go, you want to go further still, then you must continue the practice of letting go—again and again and again. This is my story of further still...

1) nomadic math consultant living on the road in my tiny home on wheels called “stoop”… let’s teach math class together! i also moonlight as a BTC facilitator for Peter Liljedahl.

2) having fun making a free audio companion to my book. #ITeachMath #ImperfectUnfinished youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Comment from @chaseorton.bsky.social that has my wheels turning as a math leader. How do we help teachers experience flow in their work with students? I know there are lot of conditions in schools that contribute to burnout, but is lack of flow one of them? #MPES23 #wismath #iTeachMath

Just released Ep 5 of the audio companion to my book, The #ImperfectUnfinished Math Teacher. In Ep5, we interrogate our math stories—because much of what we internalized about math class as students is unproductive to our work as teachers. Check it out… #iteachmath #mtbos
