I have been working on a collection of math tasks that I am calling "180 Days of Math Tasks." So far I am one-third of the way with 60 tasks completed. I am hopeful to also include extensions and other add-ons. The collection is here: bit.ly/180daysmath #iTeachMath

Friendly back to school reminder: When kids show up late for school, they still showed up. Thank them, not scold them. Itโ€™s not always their fault. โ€œIโ€™m happy youโ€™re hereโ€ goes a very long way.

We cannot preach that ALL students can learn math when we still teach in a way that makes learning math inaccessible to ALL. (I mean, I guess we can. It's just not going to change anything.) An incomplete collection of ๐Ÿ”Ÿ upgrades we need in math education. ๐Ÿงต1โƒฃ-๐Ÿ”Ÿ

We're missing the point about math anxiety and timed math tests. Whether the relationship is causational or not is NOT what's significant. The entanglement of these 2 concepts is blinding us to the dangers each brings to a student. Lean in, folks. I'm fired up. ๐Ÿงต #MTBoS

Effective teachers don't focus so much on rules, but more on relationships, routines, & expectations. If you focus mainly on rules, you will spend most of the year enforcing them. But if you focus on relationships, routines, & expectations, you rarely have to defer back to rules.
