If you don't think conceptual learning and modeling why the math works is important, then you won't appreciate this. #iteachmath
And to know this teacher went from not wanting to even try to being so excited about the lesson that she invited me to come see. 🔥🔥

He said he didn't like math. That he was never good at it.
On the corner, in Atlanta, we had a conversation about math and his ability. I poured into him some #MathJoy. I'm glad I ran into Muhamed! May never see him again but I told him how great he is. 💜 #iteachmath

Meeting with the AP had to wait because when I stopped to ask this baby about the math, I knew I needed to celebrate his voice. Hope you got 90 seconds to celebrate him too! #iteachmath #studentvoice #hisownwords #mathHisWay

One the APs I work FOR (cause I truly believe I work for them, teachers, and kiddos - not the other way around) said she was swamped and needed help with her data presentation for Monday. So I got to do what love - design stuff on Canva. Her slides are done and off her plate!

1. I made it
2. Helped a T set realistic expectations
3. T called kids low. Redirected to change the perspective. They're striving, they're not low. If that what you call them, that's how you'll teach them. They deserve better. You'll give them better.

I spent a long time today wondering why pacing gets in the way of learning. We move to tricks and memorization of steps because the calendar says we have two days to teach this. And I truly hate it because we could be much better. #BlackEduSky #EduSky #iteachmath

The lesson gave the kids a word problem about the area of a sidewalk so Ms. Obi let the kids experience their math on the actual sidewalk!!
Distributive property + area model 🔥💜

Led a session on SGI for MS math Ts. Icebreaker fraction ➗All defaulted to KCF.
Problem? Not really. 🤔
But I shared a time I didn’t know why it worked. Problem? Yes.
That led to the 💡. The willingness to try! A 1st year T loved the model more! #iteachmath @howiehua.bsky.social

My DC approved my request to add a campus I've been wanting to support to my portfolio. When I go to share the news with the Principal, AP, and teachers...the unexpected celebration and welcome I got had me feeling all warm and tingly inside. I needed that 😭😭. #iteachmath #goodday
