Trying to be proactive. No clue what this upcoming school year has in store. I assume it’s going to be a mix of a bunch of different things. So ...... #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher #mathteacher #teacher

With school officially in the books I’m taking a couple hours to relax and enjoy a gorgeous Ohio afternoon. #teachersofinstagram #mathteacher #schoolsoutforsummer

Finally no rain. While walking with the pup we stumbled upon a dawn hiding in the weeds. #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolmathteacher #middleschoolteacher #norain

First attempt at being a barber. There was bloodshed. Fortunately only mine. #teachersofinstagram #mathteacher #barberlife

Latest creative reading. A very light/fun/insightful read. I figure there is going to be a bunch of problem solving & creative thinking required this upcoming school year so I might as well get those creative juices flowing. #steallikeanartist #a

My video set up. Making a few instructional videos. Clearly not professional grade. #teachersofinstagram #mathvideo #middleschoolmath #middleschoolmathteacher

Crazy Friday night. Crush the puzzle to start the festivities. #middleschoolteacher #mathteacher #teachersofinstagram #puzzles

With all the daily chaos I’ve been forced to learn new things or at the least think about things differently. It’s given me time to reflect on what I do and how to do those things differently. Quote by I believe @noahkagan . #mathteacher

Another example of math saving you some 💰. Doing the Kroger Click list (highly recommend) and notice both on sale but... I can buy 4 of the 10 count for the same price and get an extra 8 pods. 25 % more! #unitrates #math #reallifemath #krogersdeals

Just a fun silly little milestone:My Trapezoid video hit 1,000 views. Kinda neat seeing a 1k on the screen (only 480,000 views behind the video above this). Thanks to any teacher that forced there students to watch this. #math #trapezoid #areaoftrape

Hello Fresh has been money! Delicious. Easy to cook. Right to our front door. #hellofresh #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher #mathteacher

Two straight beautiful days in central Ohio. So glad we were able to take advantage. It was a pleasant distraction from all the crazy. #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher #mathteacher

Cookout with hotdogs & smores, roaring fire and watching a video of a beach on the ocean. Just a few of the ways we are spending the quarantine. #quarantine #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher

Completed a Sudoku “high-fives” from the Sunday paper. So I got that going for me. #quarantine #mathteacher #mathteachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher #sudoku

Everybody in our house is taking advantage of this quarantine to catch up on a little reading. Ginger is currently enjoying “Creative Calling” by @chasejarvis #middleschoolteachers #mathteacher #teachersofinstagram

Holy Cow! What a week! The governor closes schools for 3 weeks (Ohio) but staff still reports 🤷. Still 2 days with kids (just a bit of crazy). No internet of course. And... my beloved X-acto pencil sharpener went down☹️. #teachersofinstagram #middle

$Ugh!!! Maybe it’s just me, but I can not get the kids to understand that fractions are just division problems. Daily reviews. Anchor charts. Lessons on equations & inequalities. Extra practice for some during intervention. And yet here we$

Breaking out the Geo Solids to start working on surface area. #geometry #3dshapes #middleschoolmath #mathteacher #teachersofinstagram

Starting to brainstorm ideas/layouts for my probability bulletin board. #teachersofinstagram #mathteachersofinstagram #middleschoolteacher #probability

No school gave Ginger a chance to explore our school today and help with copies. #teachersofinstagram #middleschoolmath #mathteacher #goldenretriever #goldenretrieversofinstagram
