Number Line Resources

December 22, 2020

This is to go with my almost done video about how good it is to use number lines throughout curriculum, and how to make them with Powerpoint. I need to do a scripted version ’cause … saying “I’m going to Control V” should be “I’m going to paste with Control V” and that sort of […]

Seeking unsuccessfully for the elusive template for building labeled number lines on geogebra. I’d hoped if I came back later maybe it would be more searchable. I just have to pretend I didn’t see that and do what I was going to do, anyway. I captioned the “intro to number lines” video . I’ll link […]

Yesterday I got to use my role-playing skills. Marketing sent a pair of folks down because they’re making a commercial about all the support Parkland provides during the pandemic.

LOL no, it’s real friday by the time I get to this! OK I guess I should be grateful this stuff is happening right before I Have Down Time At Home… seems Desmos and Geogebra are *both* doing “let’s collaborate and do the cody stuff with little webinars” — they called it a “buildalong.” There […]

Okay, it’s not quite time for that song yet 🙂 Back at work after “break” and still Have Students Here, tho’ many students think they’re not even allowed on campus since in-class sessions were moved online after Friday the 20 (as planned in August). Several acutely sad deals where if our staff hadn’t been gutted… […]

addressing the harm

December 1, 2020

So, the Nuns on the Bus have a little pre-election video saying that if somebody’s supporting policies we don’t agree with, we should address the harm caused rather than rail and spew vitriol. I”m helping a student withdraw from a course. To withdraw, you have to contact the teacher and send them a form to […]
