For the first day of school, 9th graders in honors math worked on these problems in groups to practice discussing, asking questions, and trying out problem solving strategies. #iteachmath docs.google.com/document/d/1...

In #mathstoday we had fun playing a modified version of "Statement Snap" from NRICH (nrich.maths.org/problems/sta...) with incoming 9th graders to review vocabulary. #iteachmath

The activity is part of a 2 week environmental science curriculum we do with 9th graders in May.

Perhaps a different prompt could be something like: "Use algebra to transform the first expression into the second expression".

So #MathsToday I found out that if you have four adjacent Fibonacci numbers e,f,g,h then eh and 2fg are two elements of a Pythagorean triple. 1,1,2,3 - 3 and 4 1,2,3,5 - 5 and 12 2,3,5,8 - 16 and 30

Back on Twitter, my most viewed tweet was a link to my "math pep talk"—a video I made for my students that now has 23K views 👀 m.youtube.com/watch?v=kenf... There's a lot to expand on in that video, like structural barriers to success in math. But I'm sharing it again anyway. #MTBoS
