Insecta (2024)

Inspired by the art of bug pinning.

Frames are made out of Indonesian teak. Each one measures 6x6x1.5 inches.

See the 🧵 for all the varieties.

DM me if you’re interested in purchasing one!

Yesterday, two colleagues were talking about heated car seats being a game changer. And today, 7 years after getting my car, I finally tried them out and have to agree.

Here's to trying things that have been right in front of us all along, just waiting to change our lives.

Today we tested out "outrangeous" from Math Games with Bad Drawings (Ben Orlin) and were not disappointed! The questions folks came up, the cheers and collaboration - all so very worth it. Not sure what the equivalent #iteachmath rating is to 2 thumbs up, but it totally gets whatever that is!

So if you can't get to NCSM/TM, or you go but find there are too many sessions in one time slot, don't worry - SoCal has your back with CMC-S. Many of the same national speakers head to Palm Springs. Check out the program & register today! web.cvent.com/event/45fe2c... (Early bird pricing ends 9/23)

I think conferences can be fun to attend, but if you want to amp up the PL, plan to present a session. I've found it's the greatest stretch opportunity and a place for supportive feedback. And #cmcmath south is the perfect place to do it - apply by 4/7 cmc-south.org/conference. #MTBoS

Anyone else have trouble deleting people from their contacts/phone after they've died? Spotted a few today in my list today - made me wonder if anyone else does the same.

@mathematize4all.bsky.social Did I see that your book has a publication day?!?! I know at least one podcast planning to read and discuss it as soon as it arrives

The math you see when driving around town. This one prompted the 9yo to ask how many different things people really get to choose from to make this many options. What would be your next question in response? #mtbos #ITeachMath

Diving into PBL design w/ a T, hoping to center math (but connect/interact/integrate w/ other content).

Looking for the right amount of supports for teachers - more than just the guiding Q and potential math but less than a produced pblworks kind of thing. What would you include?

Snark aside, I really can't overstate how good, simple, direct, clear this article about DOD schools by Sarah Mervosh is. It's a manual for how to make schools work. I *firmly* believe that we know how to do this. www.nytimes.com/2023/10/10/u...

Revelation from 4th grader: minimum days stink (!) because they have less recess for the length of day they are.

Proportional reasoning here we come!
