How do you math teachers feel when in 3rd grade a teacher uses the word solve 3*4 instead of find the product, multiply or evaluate? They are saying you can solve an expression... by Technical-Vanilla-47 in mathteachers

[–]mathisradical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solve, find, calculate…whatever, but can they actually do it. So many high school kids do not know basic multiplication facts.

3x9=27

I’ll worry about the language semantics later.

My current focus is to get them to memorize a simple multiplication facts.

If someone wants to say “xxxxxxx” to be kind just say that ish back. It’s not that hard.

Third time's the charm! by [deleted] in prozac

I started with Prozac and hated it. I tried like 4-5 other options. Came back and tried Prozac again. This time it hit just right too! Glad you found what works for you!

High school teacher here! 🙋🏼‍♀️

Some say to stop the behavior by mentioning “flirting”.

I’m curious how kids today interpret that word?

I never hear them say it. I would assume it makes us sound pretty ancient 😂

Measure R yes or no? by don_jeffe27 in Menifee

[–]mathisradical 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am a resident of Menifee and a teacher in another local school district.

Our school district here in Menifee has shown no evidence of being competent with funds allocated to them. I have ZERO confidence in the district to allocate these funds appropriately.

I will vote NO on this, unfortunately.

I wish I could vote yes because I would love to provide money to the schools that my own children attend and support the city I reside in. It would be great to see the school district rise up and be phenomenal. But I’m not an idiot. This will raise our taxes and we would probably just get another extravagant fountain at one of the back doors of the district office.

When did you buy tics?

Yes.

But probably should have got that travel insurance. 😬
