Why I Procrastinate – #July2014Challenge | TeacherPaulP
https://teacherpaulp.wordpress.com/2014/07/16/why-i-procrastinate-july2014challenge
Adventures in Middle School Mathiness. Why I Procrastinate – #July2014Challenge. Mtbos30 Day 16 (missing days 10-15). All of my life, I have been one who procrastinated. Mostly, it was to avoid pain. I greatly dislike being in some sort of pain or discomfort, so if I could put it off, I would. This extends from school work to exercise to yard work to dealing with issues with myself to dealing with other people. Recently, a friend of mine said this about her husband:. I know my students are this same way&...

The Wisdom of the Crowd: First Day Task? #msmathchat | TeacherPaulP
https://teacherpaulp.wordpress.com/2014/08/02/the-wisdom-of-the-crowd-first-day-task-msmathchat
Adventures in Middle School Mathiness. The Wisdom of the Crowd: First Day Task? Earlier this summer, I watched this video:. I wonder if we can make this into a task for our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders? Here’s my idea:. Each student will receive a slip of paper when they walk in, and will write their names and their guesses on them. As the slip is handed in, a teacher with their laptop will enter the name and guess in a spreadsheet. Is this a task worthy to be tried? August 2, 2014. Enter your comment here.

Adventures in Middle School Mathiness. Kindness in Teaching #July2014Challenge. Kindness must be used with wisdom within a structure of justice and fairness. Consider the role of a teacher. Love moves and empowers a teacher to be kind toward. For something in the essay that can be praised, at least for its potential. Kindness compels the teacher to look until finding something worth commendation. — Lewis Smedes Love Within Limits. I had a professor in Seminary who was one of the kindest men you could eve...

Scanning & Grading Assessments #July2014Challenge | TeacherPaulP
https://teacherpaulp.wordpress.com/2014/07/07/scanning-grading-assessments-july2014challenge
Adventures in Middle School Mathiness. Scanning and Grading Assessments #July2014Challenge. Day 8 #mtbos30 #July2014Challenge. On Students Grading Their Own Tests. Mylene had the students write a duplicate copy of the quiz to hand in, and one to keep and grade together. I think that could be a bit cumbersome for a test with longer answers, and using twice the amount of paper. Then she posted this:. The Scanner In My Pocket. Now this is a good idea! To do the scanning, hooked directly up to a computer.

Adventures in Middle School Mathiness. Mindset – Jedi Edition #July2014Challenge. At a Professional Development workshop for the district this summer, we were introduced to Carol Dweck’s Mindset.

Infinite Journeys: Sunday Musings
http://infinitejourneys.blogspot.com/2014/11/sunday-musings.html
Our minds are finite, and yet even in these circumstances of finitude we are surrounded by possibilities that are infinite, and the purpose of life is to grasp as much as we can out of that infinitude. - Alfred North Whitehead (1861-1947). Sunday, November 02, 2014. Yesterday I went to the UC Davis Math Project. And got to meet a group of really wonderful teachers. We worked on a lot of problems, I meet @JessicaMurk13. In person. She writes The Mathy Murk. I'm very fascinated with the #mtbos. Using them ...
