Had a blast with @TheMathGuru on Math Therapy! We started miles apart on algorithms but ended up finding real common ground on how kids learn math. https://t.co/p1tyFNZbKM

@TheMathGuru and I are co-presenting in Austin in a week. We just met to plan. Well we laughed and chatted AND planned. What a hoot! Such a genuinely invested math teacher educator. Looking forward to this debut combo session. #MathIsFigureOutAble #MathChat #MTBoS #ITeachMath

On the first day of school, I have students take a picture with this "I am a math person" frame. I read in Atomic Habits that it STARTS with identity and then the habits will follow. Someone who keeps telling themself that they are not a math person is not going to grow as much

@TheMathGuru! I loved learning from her as we talked about the importance of emotional relationships with math & how this marries so well with the #thinkingclassroom. #brilliant

Such a beautiful blog post by a beautiful leader of one of the most beautiful math ed conferences 💖
Our hearts are still full after an amazing three days at #CAMT25. It was a joy to see and interact with all of you. Here is a short blog written by @psmoeller on her reflections from the event. https://t.co/eflCxA5roI

Still speechless after @CAMT_TX. If u were at any of my 3 sessions, know that the convos, laughs, tears, stories + real connection meant everything. I’m leaving full of hope, love + the reminder that there’s so much light in the world. And to your students - you ARE that light ✨
