Opening @nctm.org session at #NCTMATL25. @latrendak.bsky.social kicked off with things to think about and people to thank before handing things over to Matt Larson, who gave an inspiring acceptance speech after receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award, and to Lateefah Id-Deen, our opening speaker.

We were talking about our old report cards this morning in the office so I decided to dig mine out. I had one comment from my Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Reingardt, and honestly it might be all I've ever wanted people to say about me.

"Raymond has good ideas and solutions to problems."

Reading Rathmell (1978) with fresh eyes while participating in a book study of Bay-Williams and SanGiovanni's Figuring Out Fluency. I like this advice regarding drill: It's needed to develop immediate recall, but make sure you're drilling _efficient_ strategies, not inefficient ones. #MTBoS #mathed

Opening keynote at #NCTMCHI24 with Dr. Eugenia Cheng and honoring NCTM Lifetime Achievement Award winner, Dr. Jim Hebert.

"We know a lot. I don't know if we know the right things yet, but we know a lot."
