Like the best real world application of right triangle trig is measuring things that are very large using a clinometer or something. Anyone have this but indoors, as we will be getting there in late Nov in Iowa???? Or similar activity that involves them actually measuring things?
I don't really post much on here anymore but embarked on year 12 today. Feeling old but not worn out yet, loved overhearing a kid already say "this class is fun" while doing the 100 Number task. #mtbos

One of our editors, a former teacher, just spent two days subbing and she has THOUGHTS about her return to the classroom after two years. #teachertwitter #payteachersmore 🔽weareteachers.com/havent-tau…

We play the SET daily puzzle a few days a week for our opener activity in class and I literally got yells of NOOOOOOO from my 1st block today when I told them the site was down. It's their favorite opener. Hope it gets fixed soon!

SO proud of these kids! They work so hard and put so much of themselves into this and they absolutely crushed it!
Thank you so much to @GSEIWI (and Maura specifically for the hookup) for helping my students get their last Cookie fix of the season as a reward for their hard work!
"Mrs. Schwind I have a probability question for you...what's the probability that my ex girlfriend will be in both my 1st and 2nd block class?....no really can we actually calculate that probability"
Me: "well, it would be an AND question, so....what rule do we use...."
I have a Bosnian exchange student in my class right now and the other day, a student goes "wait. Do I get to be the first to give you this important American tradition?" and then rummaged in his back and pulled out... "GIRL SCOUT COOKIES".
(she hadn't had them, and it was great)
