I tried something new with my elem methods class this semester—ending each session with a game (many thanks to @mathematize4all.bsky.social for the inspiration!). I need to finish grading before I can reflect on things but one thing I know for sure is that it brought joy into my class every week.

🧵 So, hey there #edusky! 👋 A while back, I posted an angsty blog about how difficult it is to engage in meaningful work on teaching practice when the systems are breaking down all around us. Excerpt and link below. tjzager.com/2024/09/21/c...

I wrote about how I use student interviews in my coaching work (“Let’s Ask a Kid”) for the new issue of MTLT. I’d love to hear your thoughts!
The latest issue of MTLT is here! 💚
