Your right. Crap. I need to look at it again. Thanks for pointing it out.

I looked back at the results from the three years I have run this. The first year they would have been up $20. Last year they would have been down $186. The second year they would have been up $1500, most of that coming someone scoring a touchdown and then also scoring the 2-pt try (an “octopus”)

I have a middle school activity I do with Native American beadwork and transformational geometry. I’m sure you can adapt it to your needs. Here’s a link. teacher.desmos.com/activitybuil...

The earrings were done on simple frames. I’m not sure where they got them from. Let me know if you need anything else. I will be updating the activity in a couple weeks with some new examples of beadwork a student shared with me today.

The history of beading was a presentation by two teachers from our Indigenous Education Department. They used Rocaille beads. These are pictures of the directions the kids followed

This week I’m doing something new. I ended last week showing rigid transformations in Native American Beadwork. I have guest speakers this week on the history of beading and then kids will make their own beadwork. We will ask them to show the math in their work.

The kid smiled. I said how I love teaching like this because kids acting like kids helps us learn more math. The kid had a huge grin and said “That’s why this class is fun.” Made my day. #iTeachMath #EduSky
