When I showed a set of Anglegs to a high school math department and everyone said, “What are those?” I knew I needed to blog about these amazing manipulatives!
Anglegs come in six lengths of plastic that easily snap together to explore plane geometry. When you snap two Anglegs, of any length together, you can snap a special 4” protractor to explore angles.…
Exponents are useful, applicable, mathematical, and sometimes downright annoying! I like the way BetterExplained.Com explains it.
Numbers aren’t just a count; a better viewpoint is a position on a line. This position can be negative (-1), between other numbers (sqrt(2)), or in another dimension (i).
What does 3^10 mean to you?…

Are you an Algebra teacher who is wanting to begin using Algebra math stations, small groups, and guided instruction with your classes?
If you are, then I’m already impressed and the students you have this year will be, too! Here are a few basic tips for implementing guided math instruction and Algebra math stations in a secondary classroom:
1.…
How do we plan for math with precision?
As the graphic below shows, when planning for math, we need accuracy and precision!
Let’s look at a real-world example of precision. March Madness is just around the corner. If teams want to make it to the finals, they must focus on precision.…
How do you manage a classroom?
How do you run stations or small groups?
How do you get students to pay attention for longer than two minutes?
