Just realized that #NCTMatl25 was the 10th anniversary of my first NCTM conference.
I had started teaching in 2006, mostly Astronomy and Physics, so it is not super weird that I didn't know about NCTM for so long, but it is too bad that more classroom teachers aren't involved (a common criticism).

Back home from #NCTMATL25! ✨
A number of sessions left me thinking about communication in math class. Blog posts are brewing…
Oh, and a number of curious things at my hotel had me thinking about communication, in general. Check out this R&B elevator. Is this effective?

Two things from #NCTMatl25 that I'm going to be using *this* week:
Gail Burrill's algebra problem, and @gwaddell.bsky.social and Ed Keppelmann's 4 pile Nim.

Boarding my flight from ATL:
Gate agent: “What group are you?”
Me: “Pre-K” trying to say “1k” but combining it with “pre-tsa”
At least they gave them the best laugh of the day!
I may be tired! 😂

So many good connections come from attending conferences like @nctm.org. Loved being with a community of math people like Lawrence Yu, Zi Chen, Zuobin Tang, Amy Hogan, and Ralph Pantozzi! #NCTMAtl25 #MTBoS

Each representation is correct, but which are helpful, at what stage, and for which purpose?

So the previous session mentioned procedural fluency versus conceptual understanding.
The next session drove the point home.

The only reason I would want to teach small children would be for the contexts - & sketches - they create!

Use "Create a mathematical sketch" rather than "draw a picture"
(it was referenced from another session so I don't have a reason why atm)
