Highlight of the day: a 7th grader was so proud to show me he went back into the Desmos Classroom activity to reach a streak of 100! Floats and anchors for the win!! #mydesmosclassroom #iteachmath ⚓️🎈💙💯

Introducing some math games during our WIN block this week! Does anyone have any favorites these middle schoolers might want to try?! I can’t remember where I found this one, but it was a hit! #iteachmath #mtbos

Our 7/8 students at Sats showed their PRIDE and leadership skills to lead the K/1/2 students in their 100th day parade they once marched in themselves. They Counted by 1’s, 2’s, 5’s and 10’s to lead the parade in both English and Spanish!

One of my all time favorite lessons- Students were so proud of how close their graphs were to the Desmos solution! #mydesmosclassroom 💙

A curious 3rd grader wanted to know how many small blue tiles made the stripe across the bottom of the pool, but knew it would take too long to count. Her foot covered 19 of the tiles, and it took her 37 steps to go across the pool. We agreed on an estimate of 703 🟦 #iteachmath

Getting students up and moving to practice solving equations using balanced hangers! #iteachmath #mtbos

Happy pi day! Perfect day for a math teacher conference! ATMIM #mtbos #iteachmath

Homemade algebra tiles for factoring and expanding today! #iteachmath 💚

Our 8th graders starting unit 7 today! #mydesmosclassroom #iteachmath 💙

The 8th grade exponent lessons from Desmos Classroom do SO much more than just giving students rules to memorize. These students were finding pairs and explaining why they were equivalent! #mydesmosclassroom 💙

Solar eclipse 2024!!

Using spinners in 7th grade today to help us differentiate between experimental and theoretical probability! #iteachmath #mtbos

Exploring theoretical and experimental probability with a game of twister! #iteachmath #mtbos

I will never get tired of the beautiful conversations that emerge when students get the opportunity to do math at the whiteboards with their classmates 💚 #iteachmath #buildingthinkingclassrooms

7th graders exploring alphabetical probability- one of my absolute favorite probability tasks from Marilyn Burns because it allows students to work together to organize information, ask really great questions, and reason about data sets and sample size! marilynburnsmath.com/data/alphabeti….

Probability games! Always inspiring to see the creativity and collaboration this activity brings! #iteachmath

Trip to the New England Aquarium and a ferry ride home!

Starting in a new classroom and district this year gave me the opportunity to fully commit to using #buildingthinkingclassroom practices as often as possible. There’s been a little bit of a learning curve, but today I really saw the magic- and they did too🙌 #iteachmath
