Does this feel like the first day of school for anyone else? @letscultivategreatness an I were talking last night about how it totally feels that way for us. ⁣ ⁣ If you’re starting distance learning today (or even if you’ve been doing it for a while), remember to give yourself grace. It’s a very new experience for us all and I’m going to choose to view it as an adventure. ⁣ ⁣ Random fact: I’m really afraid of lighters, so I just keep a candle by my desk but never light it. Once in high school chemistry class I was so surprised I actually made the lighter work after many timid attempts I chucked it across the room 😂🙈 ⁣ ⁣ Anyway, best of luck to everyone starting distance learning today! ❤️❤️⁣ ⁣ #iteachmath #iteachgebra #mtbos #mathteacher #mathteachersofinstagram #mathteachertribe #iteach678 #iteachhighschool #highschoolmathteacher #teacherspayteachers #teachersfollowteachers
❤️ Needed a positive message for my home-office since I’ll be spending so much time here over the next 5 weeks.⁣ ⁣ 💙 Reminder to all fellow teachers out there: you showing up for your students is enough. ⁣ ⁣ 💚 You don’t have to have this all mastered. Your students love you just for being there for them. Give yourself a break. ⁣ ⁣ 🧡 Try to give yourself the same grace you would give to your students. Has anyone else experienced that you are so much more compassionate with your students than with your own self? I definitely am, and know that being kind to myself is something I can/need to work on over this break. ⁣ ⁣ 💜 I hope you’re doing well. I woke up to SNOW this morning. Again. I suppose it’s just the world doing it’s best to make sure people are staying home. ⁣ ⁣ 💛 What’s one thing you’ve tried that’s new over this crazy past two week period? I’m trying to cook at home every night. It actually surprises me how much of my stay at home day consists of something food related. Making the food. Eating the food. Cleaning up from making the food. Snacking on the food. Repeat. Who knew staying at home could make someone so hungry? 😂 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #iteachmath #iteachgebra #mtbos #mathteacher #mathteachersofinstagram #mathteachertribe #iteach678 #iteachhighschool #highschoolmathteacher #teacherspayteachers #teachersfollowteachers
👋 It seems I’ve been spending a LOT more time on social media this past week, so it felt about time to properly introduce myself. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 😨The thought of putting my face out there is really scary to me, but I’ve always grown from doing things that make me nervous. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 🙋🏻‍♀️ Anyway, HI, I’m Audrey. I’m the face behind Math by the Mountain. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 🗓 I started my store over Thanksgiving break 4 years ago, and have loved sharing my resources ever since. I actually started blogging during student teaching after being inspired by the #MTBoS community in Twitter who are the real MVP’s of answering any math or teaching question you could have. I have relied on them SO much over the years and you will often find me asking questions and being met with fabulous responses. I definitely don’t know all the things, but they’re always there to help. ❤️❤️ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 📺 About me: I’m pretty sure I can out binge watch just about anyone. Not sure if I should be proud of that, but, hey...it’s a skill. I’ve trained my students to give me their Netflix recommendations and they’re usually pretty spot on. 😂 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 🎼 I play flute in a community orchestra. I’m not with decades of the average age of member, but I love it and we sound pretty dang, darned good. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 🍕 Steak fajitas are my favorite food. I’ve also become obsessed with pizza rolls this last year. I apparently missed out during childhood and I’m making up for it in my adult years. I also FIRMLY believe that pineapple belongs on pizzas. For real, this will be the subject of my Ted Talk. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 📚For the past year and a half I’ve been taking night classes to get my admin license. It’s been absolutely fascinating and just has shown me how much I just love learning. I’m in my last real class right now and then I just have to finish up all my artifact essays. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 👩‍❤️‍👩My mom has taught 3rd grade for 30 years now, all at the same school! ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ✏️I’m obsessed with planners. Any EC fans out there? This pic was from her Austin store last summer! ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 🔨 I LOVE watching tiny house videos on YouTube. I’ve spent TOO much time watching tiny house videos on YouTube. I think it would be SO much fun to design one, but idk if I could live in one 😂
Like many of you, my school is closed for the next several weeks due to the Coronavirus and our fate is up in the air after that time is up (who knows if we'll really come back, or, if we do, if it'll be all online). As with many schools across the nation, we are preparing for distance learning. Some schools are requesting teachers to prepare a two-week packet to hand out to students (either in person or electronically) and I'm hoping this packet can help you cover the transition into this new phase of teaching and learning. COIVD-19 will change the remainder of our school year. In time, we'll all find our new sea legs, but periods of change and transition can be stressful and challenging (I know I do not deal well with uncertainty), so I want to take as much stress off your plate as possible. I've teamed up with my favorite math ladies to offer you 28 resources for FREE that you can use to cover this transition into distance learning.
“I’m going to need AT LEAST three or four more sticky notes!” 😂 Yesterday was our last day before break and we were brainstorming ideas of things to do at home for two weeks and discussing tv show/movie recommendations-it was a great way to lighten the mood. After doing this for a couple periods it was obvious that my students REALLY wanted access to all of their suggestions over the break, so I started having students make sticky notes and put them on the board as their warmup for the remaining periods. As requested by my students, I posted a picture of their suggestions onto GoogleClassroom so they can have a list of ideas for the next few weeks. If you need Netflix/Hulu/Amazon suggestions, your students are READY to share what they love! If your school just announced a closure and you’re trying to figure out what to do in the last day, try something like this. It really lightened the mood and helped to put students at ease. #iteachmath #iteachgebra #mtbos #mathteacher #mathteachersofinstagram #mathteachertribe #iteach678 #iteachhighschool #highschoolmathteacher #teacherspayteachers #teachersfollowteachers
How are things in your neck of the woods? A) business as usual, B) not closed yet, but it’s “when” not “if”, C) closed. #iteachmath #iteachgebra #mtbos #mathteacher #mathteachersofinstagram #mathteachertribe #iteach678 #iteachhighschool #highschoolmathteacher #teacherspayteachers #teachersfollowteachers
