The best advice my mentor gave me: keep moving forward. I’m thinking about this a lot as we inch closer and closer to spring. This school year has pulled the rug out from underneath us, and yet we’ve kept moving forward despite all the obstacles. What have I missed most? Talking shop with my teacher friends. Nothing energizes us more than nerding out over the latest success, sharing brand-new teaching strategies, swapping great ideas, and chatting about the interesting research we’ve found. That’s why we are looking forward to NCTM’s 2021 Virtual Annual Meeting, which is all about what’s next for math teachers. Here’s all you need to know and what you won’t want to miss.
