When students are thinking, everything feels possible. Flow & confidence grow when we release perfection & focus on reflection.

Inspired by Peter Liljedahlโ€™s session โ€œThin Slicing 101: A Deep Dive into the Heart of #BuildingThinkingClassroomsโ€ at #NCTMATL25

Every โ€œimperfect sortโ€ reveals how students are thinking.
Thin slicing isnโ€™t about getting it perfect; itโ€™s about curiosity, reflection, and adjusting in real time.

At #NCTMATL25 in Atlanta, we challenged teachers to consider the impacts of AI as they use it in ways that support them in the classroom.

๐Ÿ’ก One big takeaway? Be thoughtful with your promptsโ€”the quality of your questions shapes the quality of your results. ๐Ÿค–โœจ#edusky #mtbos #pblchat

#NCTMATL25 reminded me that conferences are really about people. The sessions are great, but the best moments happen when you connect with fellow educators, share ideas, and leave inspired. Grateful for every conversation in Atlanta! #EdChat #MathEd #edusky

This weekโ€™s class was asynchronous, which gave my students time to dig into disciplinary practices.

The big shift: seeing standards not as checklists, but as doorways into the ways to be a doer of the discipline outside of schools.

Thinking back on a class that reminded me why I teach math:

๐Ÿ’ญ Every student can do rigorous math.
๐Ÿ’ญ Every student belongs at the math table.

When students feel capable and included, everything changes.
What belief guides your classroom? ๐Ÿ‘‡

Supporting STEM teachers to provide discipline-rich, equitable learning experiences for all students.

Our language shapes what we believe is possible. Letโ€™s make sure it reflects the strengths students bring.

Weโ€™ve put together a reflection tool for shifting from deficit-based to asset-based language in classrooms.

Goal setting with teachers shouldnโ€™t be a compliance exerciseโ€”it should be an inquiry process

I used the Question Formulation Technique (QFT) from the @rightquestioninst.bsky.social to lead teachers in year-long goal setting rooted in reflection

When content + practice align, STEM learning becomes powerful.

Attending to Content Storylines and Practice Pathways helps students see how ideas and skills connect.

Whatโ€™s your go-to move for designing cohesive #PBL projects?
