Posted on November 3, 2022 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Blooms Taxonomy in Education

I began my teacher education in the fall of 2014 and…

Over the past couple years, I have often been asked by people in my personal life or my school, “why math?” I don’t have a definitive single defining moment answer but can draw on inspiration from many places.

Three Act Math Tasks

Resilient Problem Solving

Posted on August 16, 2022 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Resilient Problem Solving

Resilient Problem Solving.pptx Over the past few weeks my definition and beliefs around innovation and what counts as innovation has shifted.
