First Nine Weeks Down!

Well, we did it. We lasted a whole nine weeks! Most of my students did very well. Also today, I had my first tutoring student come for extra Geometry help. We've had quite a few interruptions these past two weeks. Everything from ASVAB, pictures, flu shots, to beams falling through the roof! Great overtime win over Lake Village. Home game this week against Dollarway.
GO LIONS!!!

P.S. I just read TC MITS, which is a great book about modern mathematics in layman's terms.

Fostering Algebraic Thinking

Well, I've had a great week in teaching. Even though it was homecoming and we lost, I think my students may have actually learned something. Saturday was another fun experience meeting with fellow math teachers. We got to review how our students were thinking. The review came from word problems that were given out earlier in the school year. Professional developments in math have been very helpful with my teaching. This week I get to go to Little Rock for a conference on Geometry. All in all, should have another great week. Times getting close for nine weeks grades. I hope all my students can get it together!
