ow.ly/hXVo50zlRNi How might we use this time as an opportunity for deep transformation? Some great ideas in this piece!
“We are at an unparalleled point in history where our everyday experiences are governed by mathematical structures,” @misterwootube. 👏👏brisbanetimes.com.au/education/key-…
Thank you to thought leader Nancy Blachman and others for sharing how #math mentors can have lifelong impacts on kids' relationship to numbers--especially when they are empowered to question, explore, and engage deeply at a young age. nytimes.com/2019/05/26/opi…
Why learn math? We need to understand the math used to measure our health and design policies that govern our lives, so that we can respond appropriately when models become political. It can make the difference between life and death. #EPA #Maths nytimes.com/2019/05/20/cli…
Happy #WorldBeeDay! Studies show that bees understand the concept of zero and can also do basic arithmetic. livescience.com/64699-bees-can…
I love love love seeing kids who think they are bad at math really get into it when they are asked to think instead of regurgitate. #cvmn

According to some estimates, 93% of American adults experience some sort of math anxiety. Help children see the fun in math with this list of unexpected strategies to help them gain confidence in their mathematical abilities. npr.org/2019/05/14/723…
#ThursdayThoughts We'd love to hear yours! Is math class working, or does it need a radical revamp? @nytimes @JohnCUrschel #MathCrisis nytimes.com/2019/05/14/lea…
@drMi @mr_stadel @robertkaplinsky Thanks for sharing! It's great to see studies about math misconceptions. We're making a film about them! bit.ly/gatekeeperfilm We've been gathering math stories through filming and our KS campaign, and so many of them fall in line with these graphics.
@xinwinner Thank you so much for the shoutout, Xinwen!!
It's great to see teachers looking critically at students' perceptions about math. Even at young ages, we are susceptible to inaccurate messaging about who is "good at math" and "bad at math." #MathStory
Interviewed my students to find out what they think of as math and how they see themselves w/in it. I talked to 5 boys and 4 girls. Interesting to note that every boy said he was good at math. Girls' answered "no", "I don't know", "a little bit" & "I think so?" #MTBoS #iteachmath
@dramresultsorg So true. Thanks for the shoutout!
@bilcorry @RaceToNowhere Thanks so much for the shoutout, Bil!!
"It is hardly surprising that students so often feel that #math is inaccessible and uninteresting when they are plunged into a world of abstraction and numbers in classrooms." One solution from our featured expert @joboaler: encourage finger counting! bit.ly/2J4Erwl
Here's another great way to encourage playing games to support math thinking: start #MathMonday at your school! The brainchild of @scottekim. youtube.com/watch?v=QomvEx…
@KelvinBeachumJr We love your work getting kids into #STEM! We’re collecting “math stories” for a documentary film and would love to hear yours! Ex/ your relationship with math as a child, why you think math is important, or if you’ve used math in your career in pro football.
@danicamckellar We’re making a film about math and are collecting personal “math stories”! We would LOVE to hear yours for #ChildrensBookWeek! What was your relationship with math like as a child? Did you have a math mentor? What do you love about writing math books?
What a powerful #MathStory from @mrhonner on navigating a complex relationship with math before finding fulfillment as a teacher. Thank you for sharing! We’re collecting stories like this for our new film and would love to hear more. @MathforAmerica vimeo.com/269636558
