I do magic tricks for my kids bc I can kinda relate it to the topic and I actually get their attention that way. I also make immature jokes about how to remember certain formulas, rules, etc. we do stupid shit just bc we know it works..even if it makes us look totally retarded. | ||

oh lord this pretty much deserves its own thread. but i'll give you a couple examples.. they released "model lessons" that were designed for 45 minute periods..we have 41 minute periods. in addition, their version of 45 minutes is if I talk straight through the lesson..for the full 45 minutes they made it so that kids in 9th grade got placed into Common Core classes without having grades K-8 Common Core..so when they shuffled the curriculum, these kids have gigantic gaps in their knowledge..so I have to cover shit that they should know already AND what I'm supposed to teach them in the aforementioned 40 minute period. one last example..we've never seen a test before so we have literally no idea what it will look like. generally speaking you should know what your test looks like before you teach a topic so you know what to teach ![]() | ||

He loved math in his spare time he did math shit non-stop. he contributed to some fractal or another that was published in some book (look i don't know much about publishing fractals). My middle school math teacher was also super memorable. He insisted that we call him "Dr. Levitt" even though he wouldn't say what his doctorate was in. Turns out its astronomy LOL. The whole class loved him because if you could get him on a tangent you successfully scuppered an entire day, nothing reined him in until the bell rang hahahaha. He was teaching the advanced math part of the advanced students program though, so nobody in the class suffered for the lack of instruction. | ||

What the fuck. What's he doing at a middle school. | ||

Granted it was in something english related so her ability to teach math was... questionable. | ||
