I share this every year, but it’s one of my abso I share this every year, but it’s one of my absolute favorites and I have to make sure everyone knows about it! I realize it might be a little insensitive right now, so use your best judgment. FUNERAL FOR SUBTRACTION: I’m afraid I have some sad news today: our dear friend subtraction has died 😱 I know it’s a tough loss and it will be hard to go on without it, BUT! fortunately we are prepared to deal with this loss because we know that every subtraction problem can be rewritten as addition by adding the opposite! RIP subtraction! I then go on to share my first memory of subtraction and ask if anyone would like to share a memory or say a few words (my favorite was a student who said there was a lot we could “take away” from this - pun very much intended 😂). We close with a moment of silence. It really sticks with them all year! #mathteacher #iteachmath #middleschoolmath #middleschoolmathteacher #iteachmiddleschoolmath #mathteachers #mathteachersofinstagram #mathteachertribe
