While I love the flexibility I get in the summer and a chance to rejuvenate, getting "summer's off" is not how I would describe teaching. x.com/TweetsByATeach…

Tech can't replace great teaching. Thank you Desmos for a teacher guide to help our students get the most out of this awesome tool. x.com/ElaineRustand/…

So many tech options to support learning that it becomes overwhelming. GeoGebra is something I've wanted to explore, perhaps now is the time. x.com/MT_at_NCTM/sta…

I think many teachers realize we need to do something differently to improve student achievement, but that is easier said than done. x.com/tangentz1/stat…

I'm loving patterns for seeing representations in new ways and making algebra more visual. I'm excited to think through this one a bit more. x.com/fawnpnguyen/st…

As I moved from middle to high school, I've not had to do bulletin boards, but I think there is value having thought provoking content on display. x.com/Mcoaty/status/…

As I seek to grow my library of engaging problems, I'm thankful for twitter and all these wonderful resources. x.com/cindyweitzman/…

As a career changer, I love that I teach classes like Data Science and Financial Algebra that I know students will use later in life.

A3: For pi day, I invited parents to donate pi(e)s. I was stunned by the tremendous response. I think high school parents and those working liked feeling they could support in some way. Make it easy for them. #ditchbook

A4: I agree remind is awesome! Parents opt in for daily updates. I only send out mass emails to all parents before big tests or for special events. #ditchbook

A5: I hate to be negative here, but I really wish parents knew how distracting cell phones are for their kids in class, especially when parents are the ones texting them. #ditchbook
