I strive to read some nonfiction and fiction daily
I am currently reading "Punished by Rewards" by Alfie Kohn for my nonfiction selection. The previous nonfiction work I comleted was "Math with Bad Drawings: Illuminating the Ideas that Shape Our World" by Ben Orlin
For fiction, I am currently rereading "The Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams. The last fiction book I read was "Dear Martin" by Nic Stone.
I am also reading Ms. Marvel comics.
For my first toot, I would like to say that I think it stinks that our children are judged primarily on multiple choice tests taken in a high pressure situation. The state tests do not show the flexibility, persistence, and creativity of my students. Nor do they show their ability to collaborate or to use and interpret technology.
If you really want to know about my students and their mathematical abilities, stop by and visit. You will learn more than any one test will show.
