  • When Eavesdropping is Okay

    My favorite part of each week is grabbing each new episode that Laura and Karina have authored. I particularly enjoy their insights as practicing educators. They consistently make their thinking visible with sharing of specific ideas they are ruminating upon. Each show is a vibrant think-aloud that suspiciously feels like eavesdropping on someone’s thinking.

    The guest list has been amazing for 23-24 season (Barbara Arrowsmith-Young, Brendan Scribner, Tj Jemison, Tammy McMorrow, Ann Elise Record... more

  • Teach Math Like a Pirate

    These two have lots of treasures to share. I appreciate these pirates navigating the ocean of math education literature. They share nuggets of instructional practices and resources. Their ideas are always easy to implement and student centered. I have truly enjoyed listening to this podcast on my commute to and from school.

  • Stumbled upon this gem

    Thanks to a tweet that led me down a rabbit hole I found this gem. I will get this book now and share with colleagues. Will also listen to more episodes. I like that this is short and not filled with random chitchat. Also there are no ads. The episode notes are perfect and I printed out a couple of the links to enjoy later.
