We cannot preach that ALL students can learn math when we still teach in a way that makes learning math inaccessible to ALL. (I mean, I guess we can. It's just not going to change anything.) #MTBoS #iteachmath

I’ve been filling this book with algorithmically generated drawings in my chill time this week 🤓💗 The creative part is making your own variations of the rules✨ Then the drawing is already destined and you get to see what happens! 🌿

This is so cool! We're working on making it easier to move between @desmos and @GraspableMath , but in the meantime, did you know copy and paste works to get your equations into GM?

Creative Project using the @desmos graphing calculator and @GraspableMath to graph and test solutions to linear inequalities. This will be fun! Looking forward to seeing student work. #iteachmath #mtbos youtu.be/T8uM6SQ56Hk

The mass dissemination of inaccurate/poorly interpreted statistics and data is spreading faster than the virus itself. How fast can we expel Algebra 2 and replace it with data sciences and statistics? #MTBoS #iteachmath #expelAlgebra2
