We are now required to do 20 minutes of Khan Academy in each lesson because our principal "truly believes this is the additional support our students need." 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 #mathsky #iteachmath 210

Katherine @matherinep.bsky.social · 11/08/2026If you were trying to scheme about a math field trip to your favorite contemporary art museum, what tasks would you have students do that connect to any of the high school math standards?

Katherine @matherinep.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Next yr I’ll be teaching a HS “math elective” class for kids who need to make up math credits. I can teach anything as long as it’s connected to the CCSS. Has anyone built a course like this? Any ideas of what would be most engaging for kids? Resources to pull from? I will have a wide range of kids… 222
