Breaking News with Erin Wahler-Cleveland

It’s been a minute, but there are MANY things going on. Good things - but MANY things. I think about episodes and topics for this podcast all the time because there are always good math and other things to talk about!I also have two episodes I still need to produce, so I’m sorry to my guests that those aren’t out yet. Trust that they’ll be very good!  BUT today’s episode is a breaking news episode because of the response my friend Erin Wahler Cleveland received on a post she made on LinkedIn. As SOON as I saw the post and started reading through the comments, I knew we needed to talk about it immediately.The link to the post is in the show notes, along with a blog post Erin wrote about the topic. I highly recommend checking both out and engaging in the conversation. Erin is a wealth of knowledge, always seeking to learn more, and has been incredibly thoughtful and reflective about this particular topic.I created this podcast as another avenue for folks to learn and take time to process what they’re learning, and I LOVE this conversation. I also love the conversation happening in the comments of Erin’s post.Bottom line: these are important conversations for all of us to have so we can continue getting better at the craft of teaching math.So thank you to Erin for jumping in and helping make this happen quickly, and I hope everyone enjoys our chat and leaves thinking about a little something!https://www.rootsandwingsmath.com/blog/whatsrighthttps://www.linkedin.com/posts/erin-wahler-cleveland-564b3392_my-first-grader-brought-home-a-worksheet-share-7467285534986399745-VghW/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAABO-rlwBsfart9wCuNqlZFyQhlfukaymkJQRoots and Wings Math Educator NewsletterDeborah Schifter - What’s Right About Looking at What’s Wrong?Grading for Equity - Joe FeldmanBuilding Thinking Classrooms - WebsiteDebate Math Episode 49 - Is Math Ed Broken?
