When talking about our agendas for the day, I told my 5yo I was a little nervous about a meeting I have today. He said, “Mama, I am nervous all the time. I know what to do.” So friends, here is all the advice he could fit into the drive to school:

So thrilled as we were finishing building kites a student asked if I had any spare dowels (or where I bought them.) She wanted a set to make a kite with her sisters. Tomorrow we learn about trig and how we can indirectly measure a kite's height. systry.com/lets-go-fly-a-…

Nothing like a classroom observation to motivate a @Desmos investigation of Geometric Mean. #MTBoS suggestions for improvement are always welcome. teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde…

Is there a way to make a polygon appear in @Desmos when a point is moved to a correct location? For example if point A_1 is moved to point A's location then polygon appears. Slide 1 of this activity teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde… is where I'm trying to give students feedback.

Jay, you are so awesome! I feel like the shoemaker. I went to bed discouraged and woke up to shelves of bright, shiny shoes made by elves. I hope people tell you every day how amazing you are!

Why is finding the ‘opposite’ of a midsegment triangle so much harder than finding the midsegment triangle? And why am I going down this rabbit hole instead of grading tests? And how many similar triangles are there? #mtbos #iteachmath

Any ideas @Desmos on best way to give students feedback on slide 16? I'm thinking showing the pts as they type them in and when all three are there, connect to form triangle? Unsure how to implement #MTBos #ITeachMath teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde…

working on a @Desmos activity and can't get checkmark to appear on dashboard instead of dot when checking 2 conditions. teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilde… on slide 2, x = 26 and y = 37. Any ideas #mtbos ?

I love this! Question, is it possible to use correct = this.numericValue = 11 in CL to show correct in dashboard? I made the sketches ReadOnly: true, but the dot isn't changing.
