I really love this visual from @AledaKlassen about triangulation of assessment reminding us that assessment isn't just writing tests. Thanks to @HTheijsmeijer for this one

THIS!!
How are students showing us what they know? How are they, formally and informally, demonstrating their knowledge? Does "COP" collection of evidence have to look the same for every student? No!

It seems that @Kurt_Salisbury has been knocking it out of the park lately with the @Desmos activities. A couple of weeks ago he had an Among Us activity and this week he's turned @SaraVDWerf's 5x5 game. I like how it keeps score for the class. It's great for a starter game in any class.  Check it out.

I think it is good to go. A modified version of @saravdwerf 5X5 game. Thanks for all who tested. Let me know if you find issues. #iteachmath #mtbos

There has been a lot of assessment based Desmos activities revolving around assessment and here @LW has actually created a plugin for Chrome that strips the info out of the summary page and throws it into a csv file. Very cool stuff.

Leave it to @Von_Oy to come up with such an elegant looking @Desmos graph in under 80 lines of code.

Now that's a lot of snow. Here's an image that could be used for imperial/metric unit conversions.

Numerous #snowfall records have been broken in #Japan, with the top being 219cm in Fujiwara. If there’s 200cm of wet snow on a 100 square meter (1,070 square feet) roof, it would weigh 60 tons. That’s like 400 sumo wrestlers sitting on top of a house🇯🇵 pic.twitter.com/KREHECdrCs
