Greg Abbott and his billionaire mega-donors know private school vouchers are unpopular in Texas.
So they’ve paid for a poll-tested rebrand to sell their scam.
Here’s how to debunk their “school choice” slogan in 90 seconds…

This is not a drill! This is happening!
After much musing over the years about there being potential for an anime adaptation of ‘Scott Pilgrim’, I’m thrilled to say one is IMMINENT, with the whole cast back together and… you are going to lose your minds.

My ADHD was misdiagnosed as “smart but lazy”, “selfish”, “lacks effort”, “in his own world”, “too sensitive”, “messy and disorganized”, “always late”, “gets in his own way”, “sloppy handwriting”, “overly emotional”, “a lot”, and “not living up to his potential.”

Here's some more "proofs" without words you can copy and paste into your own custom @desmosclassroom activities. What phenomena do you see here? 🤔 Happy exploring! teacher.desmos.com/activityb… @Desmos @AlgebraDesmos #MTBoS #ITeachMath #geometry #geomchat

Great quote from the article. "I’m not giving them something for nothing. I changed the narrative to redefine the floor at 50, so that failure isn’t worth more than success."
When teachers rethink their grading philosophy, they can help students' improve their academic performance in a mathematically fair way. Here’s what that can look like. 👀

Reworked version. Feel free to share and use.
This is a simplification to illustrate a point.
The traits I used are just some of the ones I could have chosen.

You picked an excellent book for this year's book study, can't wait! @MartyCMath

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:
