Monday Must Reads: Volume 64
Last week, I sat down to compile a new volume of Monday Must Reads. Then, I realized it was a Tuesday that just felt like a Monday. And, with that realization, all my motivation went right out the window. I’m 97% sure that it’s Monday, so let’s delve into the world of my recent twitter likes. This is my semi-regular attempt at capturing the amazing ideas of math teacher twitter. I hope you find an inspiring idea or two!
