I work in public education; I can be outraged and hopeful at the same time.

No big deal, just my guy @robertkaplinsky.com teaching a lesson in Spanish to students in Barcelona, and FEATURED in a Catalan-language newsletter!

Alright, y'all! I'm soliciting Math Jokes for the opening session at CMC-South.
Hit me. Waddaya got?

Send me a DM! I'll share the folder with you.
Hey, anybody who's attending #CMCmath in Palm Springs and doesn't want to type out the huge URL for the program, I made a short one.

You are the coolest. If there was a word to define βcalm confidence,β youβre the one. π
Some of yβall may have heard: I am thrilled to accept a position at two Elementary schools!
More joy, more hugs, different flavors of complexity, and I tower over everyone at the site.
Offspring: Dad, I think today is June 0th.

Yeah, @duolingoesp.bsky.social knows.
My offspring chose this fit for her last day of school and wanted to show me. π

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, whoβs next?
This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.
Okay, I'm gonna say it.
@peterliljedahl.bsky.social has a fantastic teaching structure that has transformed classrooms.
And "Building Thinking Classrooms" isn't a snappy name for it. Here are some suggestions from ChatGPT:
Think First Math
Stand & Solve
Math in Motion (taken)
Brains On, Hands On

Final thought
βLamar is creating art at the intersection of Black men being the worldβs scariest boogie men and the worldβs most profitable commodity. And I think heβs accepted thatβs where he is.β
All quotes from The Youthsβ’οΈ
βEvery system of injustice depends on the silence, paralysis, confusion, and cooperation of those seeks to eliminate and control.β
I am late to the game on this book, but excited to start.
It isnβt playing the loot for Shakespeare, or the piano at [a jazz club in the 20s], but itβs something as good. And goodness has his own kind of harmony.β

βI canβt right now think of a better purpose in life than to be a teacher. To teach feels like you are a guardian of time itself, protecting the future happiness of the world via the minds that are yet to shape it.
Emotionally, it was surprisingly easy to delete 13 years of the bird-website after the lead guy's nonsense this week.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

Stay safe out there!

I would like to lodge a formal complaint against the words βnumeratorβ and βdenominator.β
If we wanted people to hate fractions more, we could not have picked better words.
