Math teacher, book reader, and cat mom.https://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lsoijivudc2nI am currently reading Mathematical Tasks by Chris McGrane and Mark McCourt. I also follow several UK maths teachers and really enjoy the tasks they share. It makes me wonder about task design - is it part of the teacher training program or just related to who I follow?28 Jun 2025 15:40 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lsoijivudc2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lslsey3bi42nDoes anyone know if there is a collection of error analysis or spot the error problems for HS Geometry?

I've tried electronic and I always forget it even exists - out of sight, out of mind? I've tried paper and that works ok, but maybe need to organize it better?

Do you have them available anywhere else? If not, no biggie, just thought I'd ask! :) Thanks!07 May 2025 23:46 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lomlfqoppx2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3loex67ksos27Any good activities or lessons for volumes of revolution for a high school honors geometry class?

I'm running out of DL ideas. I thought of having them use Desmos / polypad to create a quadrilateral themed artwork, but does something like this already exist maybe?20 Feb 2025 20:18 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lin4dmdjtr2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lh3e7buia42lDoes anyone have an example of a k-12 learning progression for a single strand (like functions, etc)? My professor has asked us to make 3 of them, but before I get too involved in making one, I was hoping for an example just to make sure I'm on the right track.

I'm working on an assignment for a class I'm taking and I wanted to get your feedback on a question: What questions should teachers strive to ensure that students can answer about functions? I am curious what others would say. I have a list of ideas, but checking if I forgot anything18 Jan 2025 13:32 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfzgbgmhbu2chttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lfifykx6ka2q3 preps plus a broken finger (arm/hand in splint) plus 2 grad school classes might be more than I can handle... Thankful for yesterday's snow day for giving me two 3 day weekends in a row to try to juggle it all!11 Jan 2025 19:12 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lfifykx6ka2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lezyglekhu2zSome days, every book on my TBR sounds fascinating and I add more and more. Somedays, nothing catches my eye, even though I have plenty of books on the list... I'm definitely a mood reader and having a grumpy mood right now isn't helping. My arm itches under the splint and winter break is over :(06 Jan 2025 01:32 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lezyglekhu2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lezizouins22If anyone wants to join us, here is the book we are reading: Making Sense of Mathematics for Teaching High School https://www.amazon.com/dp/1942496486/ref=mes-dp?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=fg2WI&content-id=amzn1.sym.7d2923e8-7496-46a5-862d-8ef28e908025&pf_rd_p=7d2923e8-7496-46a5-862d-8ef28e908025&pf_rd_r=PVRMM43W8KQTC7EKZ8X7&pd_rd_wg=QLHjN&pd_rd_r=84f28b01-3402-4bbe-8a14-f237348890ed This term is going to busy with teaching full time, 2 grad classes, and a broken right pinky but I am so grateful to be chatting again #eduread05 Jan 2025 20:56 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lezizouins22https://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3leziwdmd6o2l#eduread Thank you for doing this #eduread with me! I've missed our chats!!

For me, I think time to develop and explore... overall, I don;t teach a ton of algebra, but I want to look for some tie-ins that I can help make better connections05 Jan 2025 20:49 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lezintuc5b2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lezieumjo42w#eduread The TQE (Task, Question, Evidence) process mentioned in this book reminded me a lot of the 5 Practices as well. I enjoyed watching the classroom snippetts to illustrate the process05 Jan 2025 20:44 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lezieumjo42whttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lezi6pb4ya2z#eduread In Ch 1, I found the discussion on inverses quite interesting as well. I had never thought about the function of y=2x+5 and its connection to solving an equation such as 13=2x+5 and how you could use that to really teach the idea of inverse functions05 Jan 2025 20:41 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lezi6pb4ya2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lezhvh4rui2s#eduread One concern I had while reading is how many teachers in my state are emergency / noncertified... how do we get this kind of PD into their hands to help them make connections in order to teach their students?05 Jan 2025 20:36 +0000at://did:plc:qt6xeekrtzbuuce75imcquei/app.bsky.feed.post/3lezhvh4rui2shttps://bsky.app/profile/druinok.bsky.social/post/3lezhklwmxz22#eduread One thing I really like so far about this book is the DOING...
