I've been a math educator since 2003 and Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics by @pgliljedahl has more potential to improve the way we teach mathematics than any other book I have ever read. I wrote a blog post to share why we should all read it: robertkaplinsky.com/you-must…

Today's tip of the day: There's a huge difference between hating math and hating feeling frustrated.

Don't let doubts about being a teacher make you feel like you are not a good teacher. You are a good teacher. It's the other stuff outside of your control that is making your job harder.

Two phrases I've been saying frequently in class: 1. It's okay if you are wrong. I just want to know what you're thinking. 2. Remember, we're on the same team. I'm here to help.

I had a student say "I know it cancels, but I don't know if it cancels to 0 or 1." This reminded me of why precision in language is important. That's why I say "creates a zero pair" or "simplifies to 1" instead.

Getting students to work hard for us is great. Getting students to work hard for themselves can be life-changing.

It’s easy to lose perspective and overthink a small problem! Take a deep breath and see if you can step back from the problem and see it more clearly. Gaining perspective will also help you gain peace of mind. #edchat

You can’t overstate the importance of the first 45 minutes of the first day of class. Students ask: 1. Can I trust you? 2. Is this a safe space? 3. Does my voice/perspective matter? 4. Can I succeed in this class? 5. Do you care about me? #edchat
