Holy smokes! Tons of things to read and find here;

Explorations of mathematics, giving students mini problems to do and report back with. Havent read yet but the opening paragraph hooked me in. Putting this in the to do pile.

Ive wanted to do Standards Based Grading SBG ever since I have heard of it. Here is a good post on a hybrid.

This is a great way to introduce trig, I found last year it was one of the hardest things... and when I learned it it was one of the hardest things too.... Silly trig.

This is the trig hook we all wanted. Hope this works this year!



https://app.letsrecap.com/

A website that will record video from a computer/phone/tablet/Ipad and submit it to a teacher. The teacher then see's all the students and can watch each video and reply with comments. I want to try this and see if its worth the hassel. Its always hard creating videos of math if you dont have a writable screen recorder.

PIXAR IN A BOX! This is a neat little segment where pixar takes you into their studio and shows you how they use math to create their videos. Great for Animation, Patters, Combinations and more. Ive used the combinations in my class last year, students liked it - how it was an actual company they have all had an interaction with.

Family of curves. Holy smokes this looks so addicting.
