This delightful photo of stickers on the roll from Pipsticks makes my brain so happy. 🦄 🌈 ⭐️ 🌺 🦕 Engage mathematicians in an image talk and then invite them to pose their own story problems. The possibilities are endless with an engaging, real-world context. #iteachmath #edusky

I was looking for a Which One Doesn't Belong? for use in kinder through 2nd grader classes that explores place value. I couldn't find one, so I made one. Let me know how it goes! #wodb #iteachmath #edusky

Sheesh, this is a wonderful resource for a math teacher to add to her collection.

I can imaging mixing these in amongst the Number Talks and WODBs the teacher already does.

I made this for a friend who was headed off to talk with first graders about circles last week.

Which one doesn't belong?

Sharing this choral count as my first official post. What a great way to promote participation and honor voices. Feels appropriate for this new platform. #iteachmath #mtbos

#ICTM25 was a great weekend full of lots of learning and laughs. @ryanflessner.bsky.social and I had a great time as emcees. Special thanks to our 4 awesome keynotes @robertkaplinsky.com, @drindiagrit.bsky.social, @kimrimbey.bsky.social, and @howiehua.bsky.social for indulging us in stage selfies!

Tried an area/perimeter #menumath a few weeks back and was very worried the grade 3/4s would struggle because it was the youngest group I've done it with. I was wrong. They loved it and did so well! Up next, grade 1/2! @natbanting.bsky.social

“A HEAP of POPCORN” is my new favorite #unitchat. Are we supposed to use the ruler to measure fractional HEAPths?

Another tip for those new to Bluesky…

You can make life so much easier for people w/screen readers if you add ALT text to images.

1) Go to Settings
2) Open Accessibility
3) toggle on “Require alt text before posting”
4) add a simple description of the image you’ve added to help describe the image
