There they go! Congrats to the class of 2022 - the first Meridian grads. Meridian High School Falls Church City Public Schools

Powerful math instruction matters! Thank you @NCSM NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education for an important convening to imagine, inspire, and influence the mathematical genius that resides in all students. #BoldLeadership #NCSM22 #NCSMBold

Thanks to the Falls Church Education Foundation I finally got to sit in for my first time in person to hear Steve Leinwand speak! High school math should be INVIGORATING and I appreciated hearing how we can work to make that happen. NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education #NCSM2022

Well said! The work we’ve started with #ThinkingClassrooms in our district is already having incredible effects. I got goosebumps sitting in this session because of how excited I am about this revolution! #NCSM22 NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education

Thank you to the Falls Church Education Foundation for supporting the math team in our own professional growth. We learned so many incredible things that will make the Falls Church City Public Schools mathematics program even stronger! #NCSM22

Loving this vertical, collaborative work in Elizabeth Alcoke’s IB Math AA HL 2 #ThinkingClassroom !! Meridian High School

Kicked off the week in the best way - vertical math tasks with random grouping! Ms. Peters’s Algebra 1 students brought some amazing prior knowledge and collaborative thinking to day one of their next unit! Thank you for letting me join! #ThinkingClassroom Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School Falls Church City Public Schools

I loved visiting Elizabeth Alcoke and Mr. Wright’s IB math classes this week to see their #thinkingclassrooms where students were collaboratively solving rigorous problems on our freshly painted white board walls. Thank you FCCPS Facilities! Peter Liljedahl

We had so much fun learning about hints, extensions and consolidation during our #buildingthinkingclassrooms book study meet up this afternoon! We were even able to discuss it in context-visibly seeing the thinking of Jennifer Jayson’s Algebra 1 students from class today! Falls Church City Public Schools

It is truly amazing to see how FAST the students start the task and thoroughly complete the task (that doesn’t even ask a question!) in a #ThinkingClassroom. Jennifer Jayson has established fantastic BTC routines and these Algebra 1 students are thriving 🤩 Falls Church City Public Schools Meridian High School

“Can you give us a SUPER spicy problem??” “Wait! Can I PLEASE finish this one before we move on?!” Quotes from Jennifer Jayson’s Algebra 1 class. Makes my math heart so happy! 😁 #thinkingclassroom Falls Church City Public Schools Peter Liljedahl

Thin-sliced some tasks on right triangle trigonometry in Mr. Wright’s IB Math AI SL 1 class to assess their prior knowledge before we dive into our new trig unit. They did some awesome work and gave us great insights for the unit! #ThinkingClassroom Falls Church City Public Schools

Congrats to these two state-wide math presenters for leading a #VCTM interactive session with great discussion on engaging learners and raising the rigor in mathematics! #thinkingclassrooms Falls Church City Public Schools Peter Noonan Jennifer Jayson

Thank you, VCTM for putting on a great math conference! I enjoyed learning beside a great group of math leaders from Falls Church City Public Schools! +Ms.Introna!

There’s no case of the sluggish Mondays when you start the first block of the day with some vertical tasks! Ms. Peters’ Honors Alg 1 class came ready to work through some SPICY factoring problems! #ThinkingClassrooms Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School Meridian High School

White boards are UP and we’re LOVING them in Ms. Peters’ classroom 🙌🏻 😍. Thank you FCCPS Facilities for making this happen!! Alg 1 students are crushing a thin-sliced task (credit: Jennifer Jayson!) on simplifying rational expressions. #ThinkingClassroom Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School

Thank you Falls Church Education Foundation for making my math heart so happy today 😄 Kicked off the NCTM conference with two inspiring sessions! Meridian High School Jen Fessenden
