RT @calcdave: RT @wigu: Maths are liberal. http://bit.ly/076KSJG 12:25 PM Nov 23rd from web
@misscalcul8 That sounds really sweet! I'd do it for Algebra. How many algebra students do you have? 10:45 AM Nov 23rd from web in reply to misscalcul8
On a happier note: any Brooklyn-based math teachers interested in a Thanksgiving break meet-up? 9:44 AM Nov 23rd from web
I can't keep up with my quiz system well enough - in Precalculus it's falling apart. It think I may have to let it go in that class. 9:34 AM Nov 23rd from web
I have needed to make a drastic turn around for weeks and am just now feeling disappointed enough in myself to get the motivation to try. 9:32 AM Nov 23rd from web
I hate hate hate when I make a mistake on a quiz or homework and don't notice until I've already handed it out. 10:07 AM Nov 20th from web
@jimwysocki Worst PT conference: I was berated for giving a student a failing grade on a quiz where she had clearly cheated. 10:00 AM Nov 20th from web
@jimwysocki Best PT conference: mother told me I was the reason her daughter came to school, and that my quizzes were "inspired" 9:59 AM Nov 20th from web in reply to jimwysocki
5*14 = 25? http://bit.ly/2LXLrg 1:42 AM Nov 20th from web
Algebra test just let out. Half the kids took 20 minutes, the rest weren't done after 45. 10:49 AM Nov 19th from web
I am ludicrously underprepared today 9:28 AM Nov 19th from web
@jimwysocki Wow, I really like that idea. Do you have any problems with one student dictating answers to the rest? 2:14 PM Nov 18th from web in reply to jimwysocki
@jimwysocki Group discussion test? How does that work? 12:29 PM Nov 18th from web in reply to jimwysocki
I am so unproductive this....month 4:26 PM Nov 17th from web
@misscalcul8 ...as dy/dan would point out, you've got your whole PLN to back you up when 5th hour is dragging you down. 1:22 PM Nov 17th from web
@misscalcul8 By the way, I think thoughts of quitting are rather common, but don't worry about it - you'll persevere! After all... 1:22 PM Nov 17th from web in reply to misscalcul8
@jimwysocki How do you prompt them when studying for a test? I ask "What do you think you'll need to know?" but that doesn't get them far 1:20 PM Nov 17th from web in reply to jimwysocki
@misscalcul8 I had a class like that last year. I know it's hard, but try not to let one class get you down. Some groups are just difficult. 11:38 AM Nov 17th from web in reply to misscalcul8
@jimwysocki @j_lanier Feel better guys! Thanksgiving break is coming up! 12:01 PM Nov 16th from web in reply to jimwysocki
