So proud of my friend @robertkaplinsky.com who celebrates 10 years of grassrootsworkshops.com this week! Starting a business is no small feet, and running one that can survive Covid and adapt to meet the changing needs in education is legendary. Congratulations! 🎊

Bring it. I work in public education; I can be outraged and hopeful at the same time.

Alright, y'all! I'm soliciting Math Jokes for the opening session at CMC-South. Hit me. Waddaya got? #CMCmath

Some of y’all may have heard: I am thrilled to accept a position at two Elementary schools! More joy, more hugs, different flavors of complexity, and I tower over everyone at the site.

Yeah, @duolingoesp.bsky.social knows.

My offspring chose this fit for her last day of school and wanted to show me. 😍 #ITeachMath #YouAreAMathPerson

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next? This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

Okay, I'm gonna say it. @peterliljedahl.bsky.social has a fantastic teaching structure that has transformed classrooms. And "Building Thinking Classrooms" isn't a snappy name for it. Here are some suggestions from ChatGPT: Think First Math Stand & Solve Math in Motion (taken) Brains On, Hands On

Here’s the Ignote I just did at @nctm.org virtual conference: www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8j8uXcv/

This may upset some folks, and I’d love hear from you if it does. Let’s cring together and do better. ❤️

So proud to be a part of Fontana Unified, taking a strong stance in defense of immigrant rights in California.

17 states are suing to overturn section 504. www.bazelon.org/wp-content/u...

“Every system of injustice depends on the silence, paralysis, confusion, and cooperation of those seeks to eliminate and control.“ I am late to the game on this book, but excited to start.

“I can’t right now think of a better purpose in life than to be a teacher. To teach feels like you are a guardian of time itself, protecting the future happiness of the world via the minds that are yet to shape it.

Emotionally, it was surprisingly easy to delete 13 years of the bird-website after the lead guy's nonsense this week. I downloaded it first, here's a picture of my kid from that first few months of my bird-site account.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

It’s a windy day in Fontana! Stay safe out there!

I would like to lodge a formal complaint against the words “numerator” and “denominator.” If we wanted people to hate fractions more, we could not have picked better words.

“Equity without excellence is low expectations. Excellence without equity is exclusion.” Reminds me of “we want the best candidate for the job” or “the top students get the honors.” (This is at the #Equity Task Force for my district)

THIS is why I trust @dingleteach.bsky.social’s judgment. Just scrolling through my feed and she’ll drop some bars like AND I WILL NOT BE A SLAVE TO PERFECTION, and suddenly I’m inspired and galvanized. 💪🏻

Marian@dingleteach.blacksky.app · 2y ago

Day 44 of moving my body. Increased physical goal is manageable. Doing some org tasks today. Being engaged in a routine helps with time management of everything else. Today’s prep is difficult. And I will not be a slave to perfection.

After lunch, we’ll be discussing 3 ways that schools can be unfair to kids, what we can do about it, and how to do Equity work without burning out. Join us in Primrose D! #CMCmath

At this point, Jeremiah said “The double integration is pretty straightforward.” I’m a B I T out of my league here, but we’re doing math, so I’m happy. #CMCmath

I'm loving this quote, but there's nowhere in my #CMCmath session to put it, so I'll put it here: A reduction of injustice is not the same as freedom. —Ella Baker
