Used Desmos geometry tool to adapt a mini-golf activity I’ve used since the ‘90’s. Reflect the hole around the walls to find a path for a hole in one. #mtbos #iteachmath desmos.com/geometry-beta/…

Ted Lasso combined the Jordan Chicago Bulls and Donald Duck in Mathmagicland. Truly awe inspiring.

If I had $1100 to make the prop bets my students selected for the Super Bowl I would have made a profit of $1543.33. #WisdomOfTheCrowd #iteachmath

I’ve updated my Desmos Classroom Super Bowl prop bets activity. It is in Joel Bezaire Sports Analytics collection or you can find it with this link teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde… You don’t have to know anything about Football to enjoy it.

Had my 7th grade honors students playing with Desmos last week. One student made this graph. Took a little while to figure out why it was doing what it did. Here’s a screenshot until I can get the link from a computer. #iteachmath

Trying to decide which costume to wear to school for Halloween tomorrow.

I teach 7th and 8th grade math intervention. I’m looking for a diagnostic/progress monitoring tool I can use with my students. Any suggestions? Preferably one with minimal costs. #iteachmath

I teach 8th grade math intervention. I’ve put together this collection to use with my students. The chapter headings correspond to CPM Core Connections Course 3. #iteachmath Desmos Classroom teacher.desmos.com/collection/631…

Politicians are clamoring for a “Parents Bill of Rights” for schools. Who’s for a “Teachers Bill of Rights”?

I need to buy a gift for whomever handles scheduling this year. I teach math intervention, so I have 5 small groups of kids I see every other day. This year I have one class that has one student. This student happens to miss a lot of school. I got an extra prep period today 🎉

First day of school. Year 28 for me and 7th grade for my youngest.

District Administration constantly wants us to use new technology. Yet they also insist on starting the year by getting every employee in the district together in one location for a 2 hour rah-rah session.

I hate doing bulletin boards. I used posters for a long time. I left them when I changed positions. Now I use soccer scarves. Here’s this year’s so far.

I made this activity using tools I learned at a couple of Desmos webinars. Thanks to Joel Bezaire and Adam for answering my questions about the graph that became slide 7. #iteachmath teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde…

My wife sent me to Walmart today forgetting that it’s July 5th. They are putting out their back to school stuff. I’m in need of emotional support.

Took my old worksheets for using reflections to find the path for a hole-in-one in miniature golf. I took the time yesterday to put it into Desmos Activity Builder. Feel free to use and share. teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde… #iteachmath #mtbos
