Strengthening education starts with strengthening the teaching profession.

Yet new @UNESCO data show that in 2 out of 5 countries analysed, teachers earn less than professionals with comparable qualifications, making it harder to attract and retain talent in the profession.
, #UNESCO calls for renewed action to strengthen the status and support of the world’s 107 million teachers.

Happy World Teachers’ Day! 🍎

Today is a chance to celebrate the educators who plan, adapt, encourage, reteach, listen, notice, and keep showing up for students every day.

So much of teaching happens in moments that never make it onto a lesson plan, but those moments matter teacher making a difference in ways both big and small, thank you. ❤️

Happy Fall or Happy Spring, depending on where you find yourself on our precious planet. #equinox

Teaching tip: consider saying "ask me at least 2 questions" instead of " do you have any questions?" to help normalize questions

We should strive to be lifelong learners 💡

Simple shapes form the basis for four distinct tessellation styles shown here.

- Avión 1 features sharp angles and triangles that repeat into dense geometric fields.
- Hueso uses symmetric bone or I-forms aligned in structured arrays.
- Pajarita employs rounded, lobed curves s.
- Pétalo relies on tapered points that stack like overlapping scales or petals.

The rows advance from initial outlines through refined shapes and full patterns to actual glazed tile photographs.

These patterns are used to pave floors and clad walls in traditional and contemporary architecture.

I wish I was shown how we can visually derive the difference of two squares formula

Only straight lines. The pure beauty of mathematics.
