Former HS Math teacher looking for my next role. I write about math, education, music, food, parenting, travel, tinkering... all with a side of snarkiness, sarcasm and self-deprecation.
My former workwife left to teach at a boarding school- it's definitely an all encompassing life experience. She wasn't a huge fan but did allow them to save a fair amount of $$.
This one is in Aspen. Which is GORGEOUS but also ridiculous touristy & insanely expensive (I say this having lived in SF)

Although I suppose it's better than 10 years ago when a lot of adulthood was trying to figure out how to fax something...

I understand wanting to get them to use up their timeouts... but that was brutal. Gotta be a bit more creative...

Speaking on behalf of many educators who used Desmos classroom before the Amplify acquisition...
There seems to be a lot of teachers... frustrated... with the pivot to amplify classroom. It sounds like it hasn't been a smooth transitions & many features have made life more difficult for teachers.

Although, if we're talking about the math of coffee... Can we discuss how drip coffee machines need a water to coffee conversation?
For example, this morning I put in 4 cups of *water* and produced 2 cups of actual *coffee*
Why can't the machine state "X cups of water, Y cups of coffee" somewhere

IMO Bills fan frustration feels misplaced...
Bitch about the no-call DPI on Moss.
Bitch about the first DPI on the Bills (although there was also a roughing the passer on the play...)
This play isn't it
The second DPI was blatant, and they also missed a holding on the Bills that was almost a safety

Here's a different angle, I don't think it's as secure as Bills fans want to see it. I also think the fact that he didnt protest at all is telling.

I see him going to the ground, starting the process of the catch, then the one on his back doesn't show the ball, then the defender has the ball.
My understanding is when going to the ground the WR has to complete the catch. One more step, a football move... I 100% agree, catch, down by contact.
