Local New England #iteachmath, #imentormath #MTBoS, see you in October? #ATMNE25 #yogamath @atmim.bsky.social @atmnemath.bsky.social; www.normabgordon.com atmim.net/event-5937758
Flyer promo #ATMNE25 October 2025 MA. Peace-Love-Math logo. Text reads "Functional movement, mindfulness, and play—with a #yogamath twist. We’ll tie for two, thread for three, fit for four—and maybe even discover a fifth —not in the numbers, but in how we feel, move, and connect. No mat. No pressure. Just space to move and a curious mind. #MathYoga #YogaMath

Using the "you are running out of space in Google Drive" as a nostalgia trip of classroom assignments - found this puzzler from 2006! Updated fancy image for 2025!
#iteachmath, #imentormath #MTBoS (more vintage IYKYK)
movie ticket stub imag with puzzle text: "THE MISSING DOLLAR (?) 3 students go to the movie and the ticket seller charges $30, they each pay $10. (side note: first clue this is a vintage problem!) Later, the ticket seller realizes the discounted rate is 3 tickets for $25. He finds the students to return the $5. Rather than figuring out how to split the $5 evenly, the students take $1 each and give the honest seller the other $2 as a tip. Each student ended up paying $9 and the seller got $2. 3*9+2=29. WHERE IS THE OTHER DOLLAR?"

Wrapping up a terrific summer book chat group! I hope to run it again in the fall – message me if you're interested. Last session is next week, we wrap up with Ch 7. Participants' assignment is to create a "found poem." Here's my example, enjoy! #imentormath #iteachmath #icoachmath #foundpoetry
Screenshot or book texted with some words obscured to create a "found" poem. Poem text reads: NAME: Norma CHAPTER 7 and PAGE(S): 267? FOUND POEM: PROBLEM STRINGS Real math-ing; students solve, reason, know and build. Problem strings: high-dosage patterning, mathematical connections String of problems: intention, purposeful, mathematical goal Travel mental paths - strategies become natural Teachers: represent thinking Students: solve any way; reason; see thinking; compare brain and visible; gain clarity; instant feedback; adjust; over and over; Discuss - Compare - Generalize Increase: Confidence - Accuracy - Efficiency
