NCCTM 2018

I feel very privileged to have been able to attend the NCCTM conference again, but this year I went as a presenter.  This is/was a huge deal for me.  I always thought presenters were people who were "pros" at what they were presenting on, but after attending just one conference before I realized that was just not true.  Very knowledgeable teachers were just sharing with others something they are passionate about ... something they found that may or may not be helpful to everyone but somebody is going to love it.  I realized I can do this too!

I was really nervous.  I gave presentations before, but nothing at this level.  I was worried no one would show up ... I was worried there would be a hundred people there ... I was worried I would talk too fast and run out of material, or talk to slow and not have enough.  As it was, I had an excellent group and my timing couldn't have been more perfect!  I heard some positive feedback and I hope attendees got something out of what I had to say.

My presentation was on Interactive Notebooks in HS Math.  I got some requests for my Math 3 notebook materials, which I will gladly give out, but all the way home I was mulling over the best way to get these items shared.  I have said before how much I truly want to blog more, that I love writing them, but time usually gets away from me and before I know it a whole year has past. Now I have a really good reason to start again.  I've decided to post my Math 3 Interactive Notebook pages here ... starting tomorrow!
