"Was that a compliment, or was it an assumption that (my teachers) didn't believe I was capable?"
Marta Garcia speaks with such grace and kindess and love, and I'm so grateful to have her as a mentor. #NCSMRiseUp #NCSM2025

@martamath0901.bsky.social made me cry and I'm not even mad about it. Absolutely beautiful session. #NCSMRiseUp #NCSM2025
In “more than 60 years as an educator… I’ve learned…from sharing ideas with colleagues, I’ve attended workshops, I’ve attended conferences, I’ve read professional books, but my most important source of honing my teaching skills has been the students I’ve taught.”
"Making practice public is essential to teachers developing their craft together. What it means is that teachers: 1) make their instructional decisions public before, during & after teaching; 2) relentlessly position students as capable & as central participants in teachers’ collective learning; /1
"Explore how student reflection can support the establishment of an equitable learning environment" near a teacher talking with two students.
Our Student Reflection Tool supports Ts in asking ?s about kids' prior experiences & sense of themselves as math learners, & their beliefs & expectations for - and participation in - math class. Blogs linked in the right margin address what to do about what you find out!

How does the Forum for Equity in Elementary Mathematics supports teachers in establishing and maintaining an equitable math learning community from the beginning of the school year? Read and find out! #RoomSetUp #Norms #ClassroomStructures #GettingToKnowStudents #ReflectingOnParticipation
How can the design of a classroom promote the distribution of math authority, equitable participation, and respect for different learners? How can it ensure that students see themselves, feel welcome, and understand that this will be a joint undertaking? - @martamath0901.bsky.social
"How I learned the real maths, to make connections and see maths in the very unique way [I do]...developed despite the school maths, not because of it." - Dr Laura Tuohilampi
Quote from a Participant: "Coming into this class my goal was to gather strategies to reach all my students, give them confidence, support, and different entry points. I am leaving with a plethora of ideas to incorporate into my teaching, my work with students, and my work with my colleagues."
Looking to meet the needs of the range of learners in your K-5 math class, whatever your curriculum? Our 7-week asynchronous online course starts 6/18 and focuses on instructional strategies to effectively support and engage all students in deep & rigorous math learning. www.terc.edu/mathequityfo...
A course participant quote: "I think this may be my eighth online course and I have never had one so interactive and well set-up. I loved the way I could view and interact with student work. Very cool."
