2) had parent meeting on math support, & a parent suggested an AI tutor. Their daughter said “an AI tutor? They’re bad for the environment”

2 proud moments that i think show Ss’ criticality & how they’re living justly:
1) district is piloting tech software & offered Ss amazon gift cards for an interview. Some students declined bc of their views on Bezos

the GLARES i got today from students when I joked that we would still “do math” today…they mentally boycotted🤣

United States Completes WHO Withdrawal WASHINGTON —  January 22, 2026 — The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Department of State today announced the United States’ completion of its withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) due to the organization's mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic that arose out of Wuhan, China, its failure to adopt urgently needed reforms, and its inability to demonstrate independence from the inappropriate political influence of WHO member states.

The United States has officially withdrawn from the World Health Organization.

This is a shameful move that puts both Americans and people all over the world at greater risk from disease outbreaks, which require international collaboration to contain.

Felt so much anxiety returning to school this week… but day one felt good!

Schools have no clue how many students are living under the threat of deportation for themselves and/or their immediate families. We have no way to collect this data or to address the issues that arise when students live in fear of their worlds being torn apart.

And it’s a massive problem.

My doctor: Are you feeling increased anxiety or depression that makes it hard to function in your everyday life?

Me: Are you not? 👀

Yay thanks!!

Thank you!!

been really into maps and GIS-related things. anyone have any recs on resources to start learning GIS? thinking about place-based learning as it relates to education :)

started reading Elena Aguilar's Arise book today. I've been needing this book for a long time 😭

I wrote a (small) piece on oppressive mathematics at the 6-12 grade band in curriculum and wondering where I might be able to publish this— any help or suggestions welcome! And collaborators too :-) DM me!

I’m so tired of seeing AI infiltrate our worlds. We need to center human relationships, not have AI replace them 😪

I love speaking to my elementary teacher friends and learning how different the vibes are right now: it’s winter holiday hyper party vibes for the littles and freak out for finals/grades at the HS level🤣

"I start each class with 5 minute "Me" Time – the students get 5 minutes at the beginning of class for themselves adn you get a moment to get your thoughts together and you have time to set up supplies adn breathe." –Teacher Ciji Thurman

Even 5 minutes of "me" time can be a powerful reset, says T Ciji Thurman:

Math education is complex. It can’t be reduced to single studies or one-size-fits-all claims.

NCSM’s new position paper offers a balanced, equity-centered, research-informed alternative—one that honors the real nuance of teaching + learning.

year 6 of teaching and ive gotten really good at not working over the break, and also really good at leaving grading for the last day of break! 😆

certainly not the most restful break…but enough to help me pull through these last 3 weeks of the semester💪🏼

Book entitled “killing the wittigo: indigenous culture-based approaches to waking up, taking action, and doing the work of healing” by suzanne methot

been checking out YA books and graphic novels from my school’s library and learning SO much from books I wish I had as a high schooler. Currently reading:

was recently asked, "what are you grateful for?" and it made me really uncomfortable to think of a response-- there is so much to be grateful for, but those are often results of privilege AND there are people thriving without the things I'm grateful for.

Join TODOS for our second Bluesky #slowchat of the school year! We'll be chatting about La Familia y Mathematics on Sunday, November 23rd at noon Pacific. If you can't make it, no worries! A #slowchat means you can still engage in the conversation afterwards.

Rest in power ✊🏼❤️alice wong, your work and strength has forever changed me for the better.

the future is looking bright. Days like these give me hope!

Dear AI edtech companies— instead stripping the creativity and authenticity needed in my job, can I just have smaller class sizes?
