Friday, April 24 and we’ll be in “stay home” status through the end of May. Since the college had already made the decision that at least summer will be online, it’s not a big change for me; I’m supposed to have a mask on starting May 1. Masks are so prevalent that I already […]

Students sometimes say “I was taking the test and I thought of what you would say” (or sometimes “I remember you yelling at me, ‘THINK!'” the one time…) … or they’ve said “could we bring you with us… a cardboard you?” okay, anxiety is a real thing. What if students *could* bring some kind of […]

(It’s not happening yet…) I just sent this email to Power in Numbers: Have you seen https://www.geogebra.org/m/zQ7ADTWX in geogebra? It’s a whole BOOK for GED … The “Isle of Mathematics” looks to have a trove of good things, and Geogebra is CC-BY … And I just saw a cool webinar (only because students aren’t here […]

Serendipity! I’m trying to do that minimalist fraction stuff and this fraction lesson is linked to on twitter. Yes, it’s Illustrative Math (IM) and I love this promotion of **going back** and doing stuff from earlier because that’s what they need.
