#TeachingTuesday
This week’s asynchronous class dug into community-content connections

After reading Learning for Justice blogs + watching a @todos-math.bsky.social Live video, candidates began exploring their placement communities through walks, interviews, and online searches

This week’s class was asynchronous, which gave my students time to dig into disciplinary practices.

The big shift: seeing standards not as checklists, but as doorways into the ways to be a doer of the discipline outside of schools.

#TeachingTuesday #DoersOfTheDiscipline #TeacherEducation

My teacher ed class is full of PSTs across math, science, ELA, social studies and PE. This week we explored content storylines.

What I loved was hearing how each discipline engages in this work. Together we’re not just asking what the standards are, but also how and why they matter #teachingtuesday

🚨New Publication🚨

After quite the journey, this book chapter is finally out in the world.

It is from the first research project I worked on and the first time I got excited about what emerged in data.

Although it is short, this piece represents me beginning to find joy in research ❤️

So grateful to share this work with #AMTE that I have been doing with my amazing colleagues @bheprime.bsky.social, Sabrina Zarza, and Samantha Wald

🚨New Publication🚨

I stand on the shoulders of giants in this work and am grateful for every single person who came before me and laid the ground work for me

This book is absolutely brilliant the way fiction and methodology are woven together is so compelling. I am so glad I picked this to be my break work-adjacent read.

Sandy (our cat) is basically a walking meme…..just peaking over the table trying to see if she will get in trouble 🤣

She even when I had her try without a picture she gave up and drew a picture 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Update for everyone following my saga of learning first grade math…..we worked on it after school and she just wanted to draw a picture to get the answer….

Ok #mtbos and #iteachmath folks, my daughter came home with this worksheet. I think I get where all the numbers come from procedurally but I don’t get conceptually why you would do this. Any insights to explain it to her?

Ending the semester with a sick kid. Will be posted up on the couch till further notice

After avoiding work all week, I decided to spend this cozy evening catching up on grading

So grateful to be able to share two of my passions, teaching math for social justice & PBL, with the future teachers in @bheprime.bsky.social methods class

I have funding (so yes PAID opportunity) to collaborate with and support STEM teachers who use justice-oriented teaching practices and are mentoring future teachers. To find to more see the flyer or visit: www.sheilamorr.com/current-proj...
