0️⃣ I’m starting my 13th year teaching high school math and physics at a K-12 Waldorf school in #WesternMA. I’m also involved in pedagogical administration, and coordinated our high school through the covid years.

1️⃣ This year I’m teaching Algebra II and Precalc year-long courses and month-long intensive seminars in Projective Geometry and an intro to Calculus.

2️⃣ Pies>Cakes>Donuts. Overdosed on donuts after grad school talks. Also have been gluten free for ten years and GF donuts are pretty meh.

3️⃣ Outside of work I love walking my senior Labradoodle, hanging with my family and cohousing friends, going to cafes, cooking, a little gardening.

#prompt1 #classroommath #introduction

@coreyspowell@mastodon.social makes perfect sense. Astronomy is the only science where you have such little direct sensory experience of the domain, or ability to manipulate the subject to cause macroscopic effects (e.g. chemistry). Mostly what we know is through indirect means anyway, so we have some freedom in how we represent it.

My #introduction! I’m looking for a good home in the fediverse. Have been on social media of some sort since the MUDs and Usenet of the 90s, and a participant in intentional communities on and offline, including #cohousing. I am interested in science and education topics as well as some light computer geekery, sustainability and organic ag, reskilling, and parenting. Currently parenting teens in #westernmass with my husband.
