Remember you can always use the nomination form and I will put it in my next post!
Let’s start with a super happy post from Elissa (@misscalcul8). Sometimes it’s nice to reminded that, yes, this job can sometime rock. And it couldn’t be rocking for a nicer person! I bet making lessons like these is definitely helping the positive trend!
Man, I love books. Beth (@algebrasfriend) was nice enough to share some that are great for any age! (I added The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires because I LOVE reading that book to my classes. Look at this cute video of it!)
E (@cheesemonkeysf) is a pro at turning everything into a good set of Talking Points. Her newest one has the theme of (loosely translated): Keep Calm and Carry On; You Can Do This.
(I never know if I should use someone’s name if they don’t use it on Twitter. Thoughts?)
Pam (@pamjwilson) has a easy way of getting students to slow down and think about graphs.
If you need some logic games, make sure you visit Julie’s (@fractionfanatic) blog. So many good ones that are new to me!
I found Math PD for Substitute Teachers fascinating, both the idea of having PD for that and what Allison (@allison_krasnow) chose to do for it.
Scroll, scroll, scroll and you will see the most genius idea ever from Jennifer (@MrsCookKHS): ZIP TIE PENCIL POUCHES TO DESKS. I feel like it is so genius that everyone must already know it but me.
This has nothing to do with math or school, but it made me laugh. 🙂
And now for some starred tweets:

@mathymeg07 @MTMambo Had this idea based on your radian slices. Not sure how good an idea it is… pic.twitter.com/hqpjaQ0NBE

“I’ll know if you’ve read your syllabus carefully.”
“How will you know?”
“I’ll know.”
