Celebrating the proud women of SFUSD who told their stories and lifted their students last night on the ignite stage in front of the members of the California Math Council North, and rocked it! @AngelaTorr3s@SimplyMEchelle and @RoriSamantha. #cmcmath#WeAreSFUSD
Continuing my complete love of everything Henri Picciotto brings our field. Another amazing, interactive session on the many kinds of symmetry @hpicciotto#cmcmath
I just want to take a moment to put out there my genuinely heart felt thanks to @SFUSDMath & the collaborators who have worked tirelessly this summer to take their entirely free curriculum & redo it for remote learning - down to slide decks for each lesson and unit. From all Ts:
After many years of work and many hands, we now have released the PK Math Core curriculum open source under a CCBY license, in collaboration with the SFUSD Early Childhood Department. @SFUnified@creativecommonsdocs.google.com/document/d/1…
See the latest NCSM position paper on the Call for Detracking Mathematics. It’s papers, like this one, that compiles research, that helps us all in this hard work towards equity! @MathEdLeaders
Be sure to check out the newest position paper, Closing the Opportunity Gap: A Call for Detracking Mathematics, on the NCSM website. mathedleadership.org/resourc…
In light of school closures, we have produced ten days of elementary activities teachers can choose to assign students to complete at home. We are releasing them under a CCBY license and you will find them on our homepage sfusdmath.org/@creativecommons@SFUnified
So excited by the mathematical reasoning happening in Grace's and Bonnie's kindergarten classrooms at Sheridan. Get in close and see what they notice about rectangles and squares! "Sometimes a square looks like a diamond." "A square is a special rectangle." @pdaro@SFUnified
See @joboaler's opinion piece in the Hechinger Report today. She shares some early findings of surveys of our 9th grade students' positive math identities about learning in heterogenous classrooms.

A celebration of Ms. Cheung and her 2nd graders at Visitacion Valley ES, with groups of students showing multiple representations of counting identical coins, from unit 2.1 Grouping Objects. Each different color marker represents a different student's writing! @SFUnified
A shout out to Mr. Jorge’s Math 8 and Mr. Carter’s Math 7 for sharing your learning with out-of-state visitors today. Get in close and read the time v distance explanations from math 8! Denman Pride on the South Side! @DenmanPrincipal @SFUnified
What do you notice and what do you wonder? I stumbled on this phone interface box (I think that’s what it’s called?) being worked on right outside of one of our schools, so many patterns so many things to see and model with mathematics.
