Looking at the Morse Code for the digits. What do you notice? What do you wonder? I notice that each digit is made up from 5 characters.

What if our rubrics were wheels instead of linear progressions that give the impression of learning coming to an end? A colleague brought me this idea and I can’t stop thinking about it.

Dad: Before we get started today, let's review what you did last time. What did you have to do on these number lines? Me: I had to find 1 whole. Dad: How did you do that on this first one? Me: I only had 1/2 so I had to make another half. It had to be the same length.

"Wordle rewards every thought you bring to it with something new to think about." That's the magic for me. Thanks for encouraging us to see Wordle as a challenge outside of the game. Why Wordle Works, According to Desmos Lesson Developers, by @ddmeyer danmeyer.substack.com/p/why-…

My 7yo mathematician created this math puzzle for anyone to solve while waiting for turkey. Each color represents a different number. When next to each other as in the first equation, it represents a 2-digit number. #Waltsays

True for students. True for teachers. True for all humans. In or out of the classroom.

The next time you think your students are giving you a hard time, remember, that probably means that they are in fact going through a hard time. Our students' behavior is often their way of communication.

Been using these @openmiddle cards lately because of the power in the mystery number. Just when students are about to quit, we pull out the "?" card. They get to make it whatever number/digit they want. We're building perseverance over here. #elemmathchat drive.google.com/file/d/1zOm…

Thinking about the fact that to explain subject X to person A you need to understand both subject X and also person A. I think there's often not enough focus on understanding the person.

I'm loving this fascinating blend between English and mathematics. Here are the results of how likely an event is based on when each of these words/phrases are used based on what 956 US adults said. What do you notice? What do you wonder? Source: reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful…
