I’m seeing this as well. There’s a sense of community, but also anxiety.

If only we had a word for a shape with three sides.

It has been a minute since I've used Desmos CL. Having to dig back into my memory banks to remember some of the scripts. Good thing the forum still exists.

Halftime was good, but the game is lopsided. At least I was able to plan for the next week

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 10/02/2025

Not really a game. Turning it off after halftime.

We have school tomorrow. We're also in "monitoring" mode and it looks like nearby districts already called off tomorrow because of the cold. Student arrival drop-off tomorrow will be busy!

Heat on, blankets and yule log on the tv is on the agenda. While planning for a day of school tomorrow.

020

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 20/01/2025

Nothing here either. I'd like them to make a call sooner rather than later. Usualy they announce it before 7 to help people prepare.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 20/01/2025

Haven't watched any news on television today. Based on my feed that was probably a good idea.

Hoping the forecast changes. Not a huge fan of adding days to the end of the year.

010

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 20/01/2025

Yeah, Tuesday is scheduled to be frigid. If we’re going to have a cold day it’ll be Tuesday. We had a cold day last year around this time.

Thanks for sharing. What was the prompt for this BTC task?

100

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 07/01/2025

Yikes. That’s a late cancellation. Are you open tomorrow?

100

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 07/01/2025

Sorry. Do you need to make up the day at the end of the year? I heard downstate had some really rough weather toda.

A class conversation starter for our geometry unit.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 21/12/2024

That's a wrap. Last day before break is in the books. Closing the classroom door for about 2 weeks.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 12/12/2024

Had it for a 3 month free trial. Canceled after the trial because it wasn’t worn the $.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 08/12/2024

Yes. It has been a nice warm up this weekend. Last week was a bit brutal with the temps and wind.

010

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

Do it. My team used one of the boxes near the end of the year and it was a hit. It seemed brand new for the group of students.

010

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

That's a classic. I still have a MTBoS shirt somewhere in my closet.

010

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

It was quick. We have 3 weeks and a few assemblies before break.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

This reminds me of decomposing and rearranging strategies used to find the area of polygons. Something we explored in a geometry unit earlier this year.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

Parent conferences ✅ Was great to connect with families and talk about individual math journeys. Going to recharge the batteries over break.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

Haha! I remember those days.

020

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

Agreed! Hoping we’re able to build a similar spot here.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 24/11/2024

Enjoying the energy on this platform. It’s refreshing.

With our latest math rollout, teachers were involved in helping identify the resource. Not sure about even 90% (especially w/pacing), but providing ongoing pd and resource to help implementation is pivotal. Very important during the first few years. Without support people will find other options.

Preparing myself for snow this week. #notreadyyet.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

I've heard this phrasing being used as the reason why a purchased resource should be used.

010

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

I've heard ... "the district-adopted resource should be used first before supplementing." or "you should only be using a specific resource and follow the pacing guide". Depends on who is communicated the directive.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 17/07/2024

Find myself organizing my inbox rules at this point in the summmer. Saves quite a bit of time when the school year starts.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 17/07/2024

Was able to work in the yard today although the grass was soggy from all of the rain this week. Summer is moving quickly!

000

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 16/07/2024

Stay safe. The weather the past few days has been rough.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 16/07/2024

Second night in a row of thunderstorms with high winds. So far the power is on.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 17/02/2024

Quite a bit of time has passed between posts, but I felt like reflecting on a conference from last week. mattcoaty.com/2024/02/16/f...

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 12/02/2024

Have to admit that teaching about circles is probably in my top 5.

000

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 15/01/2024

We had winter break, school was in session for 3 days, then off 5 - 2 unscheduled. I think many of us are still trying to get back in the routine.

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 15/01/2024

Snow day confirmed for tomorrow. Plans keep on shifting. 🙃

000

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 15/01/2024

Yeah, I can't remember one. I remember consecutive days for cold, but not a snow and cold combo.

010

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 17/12/2023

Trying out a Desmos 6a scavenger hunt tomorrow for the first time. Any suggestions to make this runs smoothly?

000

Matt Coaty @mcoaty.bsky.social · 11/12/2023

Watched the Bears win against a decent team. Now it's time to plan for the week. We have 1 1/2 weeks left and so much left to explore.
