To All Math Teachers

by mathdad

Oct 19, 2013

I am 48 and like math. I have two degrees in areas other than math. I fell in love with math after earning my second degree in 1994. A few years ago, I decided to learn math beyond the basics on my own. Why take out a loan at almost 49?

Why pay for college courses when I can learn calculus and more via youtube and other math forums? Howev...See More

Calendar Math

by Kay DeLaney

May 16, 2014

There used to be a company that produced Calendar Math resources that were via power point, bulletin board, or printable page. I am thinking is was "Texas Math." Can anyone confirm this for me or set me straight.

I know there are lots of great ideas, but this was nice because it was already produced and just needed changed up weekly.

Do you know of any Praxis 2 study group in Columbia, SC; specifically, mathematics (0061) & (0063)?

Math Teach With a minimum passing score of 131 in your state, why would one even NEED a study group for the 0061 test? If you have a pulse, you can pass. Really.
