This link is a blog that I found through an IB Math teacher resources page. I wanted to post the entire blog because it has so many articles and ideas for extra materials to use in class. The teachers posted different teaching methods and ideas they used in class for others to look at and potentially use. There are some with different types of readings or even some with different types of activities to use in class rather than constantly using the textbook. It is a much better idea to use several avenues to teach from since many students learn without the textbook. This source is specifically for math classes, so I think it will be super helpful for us to have this for examples of what teachers do in their classrooms.

Hey Hannah! I seriously love the resource you've posted this week. I looked at the different post/articles posted here and I thought it had a lot of great ideas and activities I can probably use as a math teacher. Like you said, using some of these activities will differentiate the classroom and won't bore the kids by only sticking with the textbook,, in which I feel is really hard to get away from as a math teacher. Normally, math teachers just stick with concepts and doing practice problems in class, but I think the stuff listed on this blog will make the class more fun and engaging for the students!
