Russell Ledet’s opening keynote was amazing! Every day we must ask ourselves: What are we doing to create an environment where all of our students feel they belong? @drrussellledet @NCTM #NCTMDEN26

Robert Kaplinsky’s session about Math and AI really got me thinking. We can’t avoid teaching the top skills that companies are seeking. Students will be unemployable! @robertkaplinsky @MathEdLeaders #AI #NCSM2026

I'm excited to be presenting at NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education in Denver ⛰️ ! 🎉 Data Stories for Justice: Empowering K–12 Students to Investigate Their World Through Data Science Every data point is a person, and every graph tells a story. In this interactive session, we'll explore how data science can turn K–12 math classrooms into places where students ask real questions about their communities, cultures, and lives, and use math to answer them. You'll leave with: 📊 Ready-to-use data tasks 🧭 A simple planning framework and graphic organizers 🗣️ Routines that deepen reasoning, elevate student voice, and build agency 📅 Tuesday, October 27, 2026 🕒 3:15-4:15 PM 📍 Governors Square 15 Come join the conversation, and bring a colleague! @MathEdLeaders #NCSM #DataLiteracy #DataScience #iteachmath #MTBoS #MathEd

Today's date is a right triangle 📐 10/24/26 → 10² + 24² = 26² 100 + 576 = 676 ✅ Happy Pythagorean Theorem Day! It's the last one this century. When's the next one? Answer + classroom ideas in the comments 👇 #PythagoreanTheoremDay #iteachmath #MTBoS

Today's date is the last Pythagorean Triple date of our lifetime! (Unless you live through 2105) Here's a really cool fact about how to generate infinitely many Pythagorean triples

Heading to NCSM/NCTM Denver next week? (Part 1) Check out these 3 Denver facts with math hiding inside: three different “mile high” steps at the Capitol, an airport 2.3 times the size of Manhattan, and why “300 days of sunshine” depends on how you define a sunny day. @NCTM @MathEdLeaders Which would you use in class? #iteachmath #mtbos #denver

What math matters most in high school? We’ve enjoyed working with Student Achievement Partners on this question, and now they want to hear from educators like you!  Share your perspective: hubs.li/Q04C7R3R0 #MathThatMatters

Thank you to everyone who joined my @NCTM webinar, Beyond the Graph! 📊 We tried data talks, slow reveal graphs and spurious correlations, then looked at the Dear Data Project Every data point is a person. 💙 #NCTMPD #iteachmath #MTBoS
