How many Spider-folk?
I thoroughly enjoyed the recent Spider-man: Across the Spider-verse movie. If you haven’t seen it, be sure to watch the first movie Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse and then see this one — I’m not a comic book geek at all,…

The Death of DeltaMath

Desmos2OneNote
The Lede: This is an app that will screenshot all pages of a student’s Desmos Activities into a OneNote Page. Desmos Activities have been a great way to have students work, both individually and collaboratively, on mathematical ideas. It was…
