Used this image as Same But Different task in 3rd grade. Students noticed color of dice, pips, numbers showing, arrangement of dice to look like 5 & 6 pattern, then students noticed commutative property. Thanks for sharing!

You hit the nail on the head with this blog! I especially appreciated this paragraph.
I want teachers to observe and listen to what their students can do to make instructional decisions that are right for their kids.
“When you create an equitable culture in your classroom, the kids buy into it. As a matter of fact, often my kids help those that need more, to ease my burden.”

Dear National School Leaders,
Please waive state testing for the entire nation. This is on the minds of all educators. Our country is vulnerable, particularly our educators and students. I implore you, take this burden from us.
Sincerely,
Concerned Educator
Children can create number paths in many different ways using laminated white paper, dry erase markers and links. Write the rule for your path at the beginning of your links, or challenge a friend to create a certain number order by following your rule.

I find this deeply disturbing. Teachers should not be exploited for entertainment. Education needs proper funding so teachers don't have to scrounge for dollars, even if their purpose was to help their students.
I came across a woman collapsed on the street and did CPR until the paramedics arrived. She was awake and alert in the ambulance. The paramedic told me that he could count on one hand the number of people who survived in such a situation.
Prime Climb was such a big hit at Family Math Night! For some, it was the only game they played. There was always a line. The parents on the sidelines had a hard time not giving their opinions about the right move.

After picking up my online groceries order, I realized I was missing several items. I called the store to notify them, and the manager made it right by gathering the items for me to pick up, AND refunded the cost. Happy customer!
The lack of TSA agents is not limited to JFK. Many airports are understaffed. Almost missed a flight from Newark despite having TSA pre-check and Global Entry.
The TSA must bring more agents to JFK. The lines are unacceptable with so many hours of waiting and too few agents. Passengers are missing flights or standing for hours.
Without action from the TSA, the travel chaos could get worse during the Labor Day rush.
TSA must act now.

In 2nd grade, I invited all the girls, including the only black girl, to my birthday party. Her mom told my mom it was the first time she'd been invited by a classmate. Racism is learned. BTW, I went to her birthday party too.
I assume the student got tired of making cars and changed to dots to indicate the total of 10 in each box and then counted by tens to make 60. I am wondering about the blue & red crayon marks.
Day 3 of CGI Math Fellows. Rain or shine, nothing can stop these teachers from learning about children’s thinking around math. Don’t miss out on Local District Central’s CGI Math Fellows!!

Next, in conservative cis men “finding out”, yes, bathing suits have gussets, pads have wings, tampons have strings, and bras hold up breasts. Do they need a TED talk?

I agree,

. The FDA needs to ensure our safety just as Frances Kelsey did in the 1960s with Thalidomide. I want a way out of Covid as much as anyone, but I fear a rush job could backfire on us with unintended consequences.

Questioning Scenarios for K-3 PD. I created subtraction and rounding scenarios too. Teachers loved practicing questioning, saw their penchant to use funneling too often.
Received this from Asst Principal & it made my day!
I just overheard two teachers talking in the hallway about how much they are enjoying teaching math with CGI.
Barb, thank you! This is a huge testimony to your work.

It's time for my annual back-to-school tip --
Record a "classroom tour" video & post it online for incoming students to view. Let them glimpse your room & hear your voice. Imagine the impact this can have on students who are anxious about starting a new school year.
#EduInfluence
If you outlaw abortions, ban mask mandates, dictate what educators can teach in schools, and stop people from voting, safe to say you're not the party of limited government...

Thanks for the laughs. As a recently retired elementary teacher, I can completely relate. Kids are technologically more advanced, so teachers don't stand a chance. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I feel your pain. Last summer a woman in the row in front of us cough pretty much nonstop for the entire 4 hour flight to our vacation destination. Unfortunately for us, we didn't have any masks with us. By the next evening, hubby became ill. The day after, I got sick. Grrrr!
Let's say it together: Birth control is basic healthcare. It helps put women in charge of their bodies, their careers and their lives.

made strategy guides to bring home and share with parents/practice (mostly mental math strategies). Some students volunteered to be 'specialists' for each strategy to support others. Great conversations and learning!

Tchr probly thinks this is helpful, but what is the floor when written as equation, 55-8= ? Teach conceptual understanding, not this.

I tried Esti-Mysteries w/K-6 this week. Discussions were great formative assessments! Uncovered Ss partial understandings on even/odd, multiples, vocab. Lots of revising thinking, SMP 3.
It wasn't that many years ago that Rs were decrying "activist judges" who were "legislating from the bench". Funny thing is the Rs are silent about SCOTUS' decisions of this year's term.

Me: Why?
Him: It shuts me down, takes away my curiosity... I don’t care anymore. Let me discover what we are learning!
