Your typical curriculum presents maths as a laundry list of skills. These are skills to be done one by one & ticked off when β€˜completed’ (with little intention of revisiting what’s been done once). Yet, at the heart of maths lie connections. Read more. loom.ly/LjKqQQw

Indeed. I no longer grade β€œevents”. I grade β€œoutcomes”. It’s way more effective and is 100% objective with ZERO bias. Event based grading (quiz 1, test 1, πŸ₯±πŸ˜΄) is not objective whatsoever. tinyurl.com/BTCrubric @pgliljedahl @thinkingclassrm #MTBoS #ITeachMath – at New Haven, CT

Education has always seemed to be focused on fixing teachers. Teachers don’t need to be fixed but they do need to be supported, encouraged, & appreciated. Thank you to all the leaders who do!
