Putting My Money Where My Mouth Is

I’ve written and spoken a lot about the link between undesired behaviors and classwork that is too difficult for students. I’ve been following my convictions about this for the past year and am pleased to announce that I have opened a sister store on Teachers Pay Teachers, Conçu universellement. À l'heure actuelle, my focus is on reworking […]

Conçu universellement: Arrive bientôt!

I’ve been working on a new product line since January that I hope to roll out for a soft launch this summer.

Cette semaine, J'ai suivi le programme de formation des enseignants de l'Exeter Math Institute. C'était quatre, 8-heures jours de problèmes de mathématiques de travail. Problèmes de mathématiques difficiles. Problèmes mathématiques qui nécessitent des connaissances et une compréhension préalables de l'utilisation d'une calculatrice qui ne provient pas de Dollar Tree. Je vais admettre sans vergogne que, les doigts dans le nez, I was THE DUMBEST person […]
