It’s Monday which means it’s once again time to look through all my twitter likes for the past week to prepare for this week’s volume of Monday Must Reads. I find that I’m much more likely to actually implement the amazing ideas I find if I take a bit of time each week to look through these tweets, share them with the world, and write a short summary of each one. I frequently find myself searching through my old volumes of Monday Must Reads for tweets to use, and I hope that you find these posts inspirational and useful in your own classroom.
By the way, can you believe that this is my 60th compilation of math teacher twitter awesomeness? It seems like I just started putting these together a few months ago!

I love these puzzles of the week from TAHMaths and Clare Bond!
Area Puzzle
Circle Theorem Questions
These circle theorem questions from Mary-Kate Connolly look lovely!
Math Vocabulary
I love the looks of this math vocabulary etymology from Sarah Farrell!
STEAM Quilt
Federico shares an amazing STEAM quilt created by students highlighting minority leaders in their fields.
Dog Graph
Dorinda shares a comical graph she plans on using with her Algebra students. How fun would it be to give the students the graph and the categories and have students try to match each category with a curve on the graph. I think this could lead to some awesome discussions!
Binomial Distribution Pop Quiz
