Thinking a lot about discretionary spaces and the work we educators need to do to provide safe places for Ss. The decisions we make have a huge impact on students' lives. Great discussions with @cohort8 @martagarcia0901 @VBastable70 @mountholyokemath.

I've been thinking about some of Shelley Moore's dots @tweetsomemoore and how they help us think about how to best support variability in math class. What do we still need learn so every student feels like their ideas have value?

One of my favorite books! Students behave like mathematicians and teachers get to be learners of students' ideas.
“When Ss engage in the process of creating mathematical conjectures and arguments, they are behaving like mathematicians.” #MtHolyokeMath

Great VMC PLC last night! We discussed our "why" for the work we do. So many interesting "whys" ex: disrupting ideas about putting students in a hierarchical framework - "interrogating inequities" and more! @martagarcia0901 @MikeFlynn55.

As I prepare for this upcoming year, I'm thinking a lot about how to work and think with families. What will help them support their children in math most? Very thoughtful ideas from where @tamannedeford shares an informative handout. Thanks for sharing!.

Thanks Desiree Harrison @Kidsmathtalk @BuildMathMinds for asking the Q what are your core values as a math coach? Equity has to be at the center of our work, "a living component inside all other[core values]"
