Daily Data Statista daily charts - discover current subjects visualized by infographics on statista.com!

And to also have access to the data behind the graph, my favorite is www.statista.com/chartoftheday/

What's Going On in This Graph? Graphs, maps and charts from The Times — and an invitation to students to discuss them live.

For current events: www.nytimes.com/column/whats...

There are also a couple of apps for your phone, in case you're looking for a way to do the puzzle without the physical puzzle

The "reasonable precision" being most in question with this representation? Appreciate the convo on this!

Today Andrea and I cohosted SoCal Math Leaders network and did Outrangeous from Math Games with Bad drawings....it was joyful!!!

Where's your line between infographic and graph?

I love you that you did this!

Slow reveal worthy? @jennalaib.bsky.social #iteachmath

15 pies on a counter in front of Martha Stewart. Post "total pies baked 35 - chocolate pecan, brown butter maple rum pecan, pumpkin phyllo, apple crumb and cranberry. Took two days, 100 eggs, 14 pounds pecan halves, eleven jars Karo syrup, 25 pounds heckers flour, thirty pounds plugra butter, six cups maple syrup, 60 ounces pumpkin puree, 18 cups free cranberries, etc..."

Feels like a 3-act in the making, for those who make pies during holidays. #iteachmath

Everything is relative :) 40 degree mornings are more than my SD blood can take. (And my former IA self would totally be making fun of me)

Yesterday, two colleagues were talking about heated car seats being a game changer. And today, 7 years after getting my car, I finally tried them out and have to agree.

Here's to trying things that have been right in front of us all along, just waiting to change our lives.

#UDL #gamechanger

Today we tested out "outrangeous" from Math Games with Bad Drawings (Ben Orlin) and were not disappointed! The questions folks came up, the cheers and collaboration - all so very worth it. Not sure what the equivalent #iteachmath rating is to 2 thumbs up, but it totally gets whatever that is!

Have you seen Ben Orlin's Math for English Majors? He parallels all of math with parts of grammar and language, and has some thoughts on this.

Cultivating Mathematical Hearts: Culturally responsive mathematics teaching in elementary classrooms

#SumOfItAll podcast will be back *next week* with a brand new season on #CultivatingHearts by Drs Zavala y Aguirre

Grab your copy and join us as we begin, and make this a TK-12 conversation #iTeachMath

Listen in on your favorite platform

But specifically what you're looking for - you might try searching @camathcouncil ...that pulled up some for me

Hey Rachel - I have a group trying this on in a middle school, too. They are collecting some data, surveys, etc. Not sure if that's useful for your team and/or you're interested in collaboration.

Got caught in a convo w/ Geo teacher today - proofs are still top of mind, not necessarily style so much as how to help students to realize when they've said/shown enough (or not) to actually prove something. That seems like a shift in the convo. Others hearing same/different?? #iTeachMath

I LOVE chatting geometry, but I'm not in the classroom currently. Seems like the community here is still small and growing, but if there's something you need - always happy to amplify or ask beyond here and report back
