How do you cut your sandwich? Turns out there's a lot of mathematics involved, especially if you want to maximize the amount of crust-free surfaces you have. npr.org/templates/story/stor…

Instead of asking which one is the right answer, have kids tell you why they think the wrong answers were chosen... @jennifuhs4 and @1pmorris at #NCTMAnnual

I am so excited to share our new interactive mindset guide tinyurl.com/MMhexagons. Ideas on how to teach for a mathematical mindset culture, with each idea illustrated with a free teacher video. Click on the hexagons to see a video. What do you think youcubians?

The skills of teachers must be aligned with the needs of our students. Our neediest students deserve our most skilled teachers. @PedroANoguera #NCSM18 – at Washington, DC

"Definitions are important in mathematics but they should be the end product of an exploration, not a beginning." Words of wisdom from @Trianglemancsd during his #MtHolyokeMath session.

Try the new GeoGebra Augmented Reality app! Create 3D graphs and walk around them! As you edit equations your graphs change shape in real-time, helping better demonstrate complex concepts in a simple, visual way: itunes.apple.com/app/geogebr… #mtbos #iteachmath

More love for @pwr2dppl "My view of mathematics is that it is an absolute mess which actively pushes out the people who might make it better. I have no patience for genius pretenders." Her blog page is so important - Ihttp://www.theliberatedmathematician.com/

Amid the relief everyone feels in Austin today, I hope this story—about how police initially treated the bomber’s first victim “like a suspect in his own death,” and failed to adequately investigate his murder or protect his family—does not get lost. thedailybeast.com/the-austin…
The Austin Bomber Is Dead, But His First Victim’s Family Still Doesn’t Feel Safe

The Austin Bomber Is Dead, But His First Victim’s Family Still Doesn’t Feel Safe

Cops initially said Stephan House may have killed himself, but he was murdered. House’s brother says that’s why the family can’t trust official word that the bloodshed is over.

Great comparison of division tasks in this post. Shows why we need to think carefully about the resources we find to use in our classrooms. #MTBoS teapawt.org/IllustrateMath/status/…

Students' number sense often declines when they are introduced to algorithms - they often become laser focused on those and stop making sense. Most algorithms are introduced way too early and they stop sense making. teapawt.org/MrTravisDrake/status/9…
