    Hi all. In this time of increased calls for unity and reconciliation, if you're looking to broaden your Twitter sphere to include a wider array of voices, but want to weed out the bad-faith-arguers, may I humbly recommend subscribing to my "Reasonable Voices" List?

    For today's meme of the day, I asked students where they are in this picture. Hoping to ask this at the end of the semester too.

    As Americans, we're notorious for projecting our own deficiencies -- which we despise -- onto each other. We all need to do some extensive shadow work. And so many people fail to realize that this is exactly what folks like Baldwin and King were challenging us to do.

    Turns out they're not directly related. But they totally should be! "thesis" comes from "tithenai," to place "theorem" comes from "theōros," spectator

    The kids are learning about thesis statements in virtual school today. When I came out to get some lunch, M said, "I think 'thesis' comes from 'theorem'. Because they're kinda the same thing."

    I am reveling in this... well, for many reasons. But a big one is because it's one thing that is making me NOT feel like a failure as a teacher this year.

    Last night I made sure to tell M how much I enjoyed the Math Post I received yesterday morning. Here is this morning’s delivery. 🥰

    I definitely enjoyed the math and people parts of attending , but ↓FACT↓

    The best part of academic conferences is the night alone in a quiet hotel room with take out, tv, and a full night sleep.

    I had to get on Zoom before M even started her breakfast this morning. About half an hour later, this was quietly slipped under my door. 😍🥰

    This morning’s Math with M: Seeing which positive integers we could get by adding &/or subtracting only 5s and 8s. We were able to get each of 1 through 10, at which point M declared that it was possible for all positive integers. I asked for a proof, and she gave me one.

    M asked for a math challenge. I asked her which was greater, 2/3 or 7/10. Her first move was to run and get a tape measure. 🤔
