It's official, use it in Scrabble

Not Taylor Swift reversing decades of bad PR for math in under 13 seconds on Travis Kelce’s podcast yesterday! August 13th is officially the day math entered its reputation era LFG 💅 ✨

The importance of teaching statistics. This is apparently a chart of "MEDIUM INCOME". #iTeachMath

Desmos is coming to AP Stats — Skew The Script The free Desmos calculator will now be embedded for AP Stats…

This is cool. I hate doing inference on TI calculators. Thoughts? #MTBoS #ITeachMath skewthescript.org/blog/desmos-...

Missed opportunity for Amazon Prime Days not to be on July 2-3 since 2 and 3 are the only consecutive prime numbers.

My #math heart was happy today at the Mathematicia exhibit at #theford museum

Since I prefer paper copies, everything goes in a 3 ring binder for each unit (in sleeve protectors to group original/keys). Any ideas or changes gets a post-it note for my future self. Digital items get a print out. Hope you find a system that works for you.

Here is one of my favorites #birds on #signs - just in case you were wondering what kind of bird it is…. there’s your sign

Baby animals and cats

Bluebells scattered between trees that appear endless from a hike at Merwin Nature Preserve

Inspired by the #bllomscrolling posts here is an endless sea of #bluebells seen at Merwin Nature Preserve

Small tortie in box on which is written "warning: if left empty and unattended this box will contain cat

I mean, the warning wasn't wrong. #proofOfCat

A family of geese with many, many fuzzy baby goslings

How many? How did you count? (I struggled to count all the baby goslings). #Edusky #spring

Loved catching a glimpse of the baby joey at #MillerParkZoo today.

Did you know MN's own Ben Orlin made 'Math With Bad Drawing' styled images for the 8 Mathematical Practices (thanks to @mctm_mn )? He also added texts to each. You can find MN versions of his work and how to use them to unpack standards HERE: drive.google.com/drive/u/1/fo... #iteachmath #mathstoday

A white cat partially covering an answer key on a desk with student tests to the side.

Does anyone ever get any work done with a cat around? Guess the grading will have to wait. Oh darn!

You can’t buy love, but you can adopt it.

It’s a great Caturday to visit a shelter near you and find your new best friend.

Yes, hello, I have once again purchased too many books and I regret nothing.

A version of the kermit vs darth kermit meme where good kermit tells the online academic that they should grade, while darth kermit tells them they should eat more pie.

Every academic right now

Algebra Tiles? Start with the concrete and move toward the abstract.

Kinda like the function machine - I’ve used a vending machine model when introducing functions.

Nice! Today was “anything but a cup” for us and flannel tomorrow - we also have monochromatic, any old holiday and band t-shirt. Anything that helps get through the week!

A1 Connections/Community, and Inspiration - I’m hoping to up my participation game (I used to like, repost and view on the old app)#SlowPopUpChat

Would love to hear what else you have planned for the week!
