I love memoir, I love libraries, and I love hearing women share their stories. I got my tickets for this event with Dorothy Lazard.

Sharing this event in case you’re interested too!

I studied 43 home languages and sorted them by one question: do their number words clearly show base-ten place value?

Some languages make that structure easy to hear. Others, including English, hide parts of it. In English, "eleven" and "twelve" give a child no clue that they mean ten-and-one and ten-and-two.

Children can arrive at school with different amounts of math built into the language they've heard since birth.

The difference shows up years later. Take 23 × 57 with the box method: 20 × 50, 20 × 7, 3 × 50, and 3 × 7 give 1,000, 140, 150, and 21. Adding those four numbers depends on knowing what each digit represents.

Number experiences from birth to age six matter years later.

What is school for?

For a generation, the answer has quietly been earning potential: good grades, good college, good salary. AI is making that answer shakier by the month.

In October's talk, "Mastery, Not Money," I make the case for a different goal: every student leaving PK–12 with a common mastery of foundational skills, a goal students, teachers, families, and schools decide together. The same question applies to a BA, MA, or PhD: name what it's for before you start.

Here’s our Shock Science bot for you to try.
Click the link to see a shocking science fact.

Martin’s showing his Impossible Questions bot to friends at a school event today. See if you know the answers.

I make bots for our academic program—like the Target Game. I made the game before AI so kids learn synthetic division without knowing its synthetic division. The bot gives them as much time to play (practice) as they want.

It’s fun to make bots. Do NOT fear AI, especially if you’re a woman.

Pass these along to friends so they see what kids and parents are up to.

After two PTA meetings I attended last week where EVERY parent in the room was female, and the ONLY person at each meeting who was paid to be there was the male principal from each school, this is an important share for all of us.

I appreciate our principals and the work of the members of our PTAs. They are putting in great effort to help students.

Something’s out of whack when rooms have such clear imbalances— female/male and financial.
