Thanks to @wipebook.bsky.social for giving us a space for our sentence frames at the COSA Multilingual/EL Conference in Student last week! Our attendees were excited for the giveaway!

Do you cringe when you hear “I’m just not a math person”? Many of us have faced math trauma without even realizing it. Join Dr. Kasi Allen as she dives into what math trauma is and how educators can help break the cycle. Listen now: www.mathlearningcenter.org/blog/dr-kasi... #MathTrauma

All true.

Don't forget about your feet - boots or at least heavy socks.

And be careful when you zip your coat up all the way! (Remember Portland?)

A scarf can help, too!

This week I transitioned one of our favorite games, Make 10, into a warm up activity. I shared this array and students worked with partners to come up with as many combinations of 10. They recorded their expressions on a white board and shared out at the end of each round. #iteach #edusky

This feels like old times! I'm in! 30 minutes once a month sounds like enough to get started. How did we have time and focus for an hour a week back then? Wednesday is still a good night for me but Tuesdays would work, too. ##educoach
