[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach middle school math. I hate the textbook. It's not well aligned with our curriculum, the explanations are convoluted, the problems jump from simplistic to challenging immediately, and the "real world" scenarios are stupid. I post every. single. note. from class on blackboard, in powerpoint and pdf form for students or parents to download. Students have a binder of class notes they take back and forth with them. I will post links to youtube videos on blackboard for extra challenging topics. Lack of a textbook gives teachers so much freedom to teach things in a way that is stronger, mathematically. I have a stack of textbooks in the back of my room that we only use on emergency sub days.[/quote] Which school district? Which textbook?[/quote]
