After months of teaching my daughter how to drive, parallel park, three-point turn, etc. (she passed her driver’s test today), she was docked points for not using hand signals. She took her test in a car, not a horse and buggy. Bruh! americanhistory.si.edu/collections/...

Found this on Edutopia. Now go slay the day, will you!?
I’m reading a paper from the International Journal for Studies in Mathematics Education. It posits that intellectual need is necessary in order for significant learning to occur. Here are the five categories of intellectual need the researchers have identified. #EDUsky #mathChat 🧵1/5
Hoping to make Monday just a bit more interesting. #EDUsky
It certainly doesn’t answer the question, “Why do I need to learn this?”, but it does give it some context. #EDUsky #mathChat
After 26 years in public education and ten+ years on social, I’m still trying to figure out my purpose and place on all the platforms. But it seems like this space is best for me to share with and connect with other educators. #EDUsky #mathChat

In PD and a teacher said “compliance” in referring to student behavior. I just threw up in my mouth. #EDUsky #mathChat
In a new teacher meeting about student engagement and the presenter is lecturing to us and reading the text on her deck. Why don't teacher leaders spend more time planning effective PD that matches the goals? #EDUsky #mathChat
Wisdom Wednesday. As educators, we talk a lot about failing and failure (maybe more on that distinction later). Just remember, we’re referring to an act, not a person. #EDUsky #mathChat
I regret the moment that led me to leaving my last district. I don’t regret choosing my new home. #EDUsky
My new school is a humbling place to be. Analyzing Plato with colleagues. Interpreting Shakespeare sonnets. Digging deep into Frost. But that humbling sensation is hunger. Hunger to learn, to connect, to be. I’ll contribute when I’m ready. In the meantime, I’ll bring my best self. #EDUsky #mathChat
My new school has a faculty room where all of us share space (WeWork-ish) to plan, discuss, bounce ideas, grade, reflect, be. Why don’t all schools have spaces like this?
