“The less we control and manage and the more we commit to freedom, the more our students learn.”
How will you invite choice? #MondayMotivation

"Math should reflect student identities too—not just through names in word problems, but by embedding culture, history, food, family, and voice. A story like Bilal Cooks Daal isn’t just about measurement—it’s about belonging." @tjmath.bsky.social What a great session! #LitMath25
That’s a wrap on the 2025 NCTE— @nctm.org Joint Conference! #LitMath25 gave us new ideas and meaningful connections. Grateful to Howie Hua, Stella Villalba & Kristin Ziemke for closing the experience with such positive energy.
The texts we choose to use in our classrooms matter! Whose stories are we telling, and which cultures are we erasing? It is important for students to see themselves in their learning. #litmath25

What better way to wrap up #LitMath25 than with
@howiehua.bsky.social talking about building math confidence? We’ll wait. 🤔
When you start with what you know, and look for patterns, then you can make sense of something new and weird! @howiehua.bsky.social #litmath25
"something that may be obvious to you, may not be obvious to someone else... So please share your ideas." @howiehua.bsky.social We can all be math people when we learn to find our voice in the math classroom! #litmath25
1) We are all here to build each other up.
2) questions just mean you’re curious.
3) I can do hard things.

At #LitMath25, Omo Moses of MathTalk opened Day 2 with a powerful reminder: math lives in everyday moments—from transit maps to breakfast tables.
“It all begins with a child’s curiosity.”
