If you already own my editable absent student form If you already own my editable absent student forms, I’ve just added a digital version that you can use with Google Slides! All the original forms are included, plus an editable one. This would be perfect for keeping a running document so students always know where to check what they missed!

RIP subtraction! // Shoutout to @mspineappleteaches for the original idea - having a funeral for subtraction is one of my favorite things!

In The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl by @stacymcanulty, Lucy was struck by lightning as a child and it made her into a math genius. She’s been homeschooled ever since and is ready for college, but her nana insists she go to middle school for a year first! What’s your favorite book that involves math?
