Math With Ms. Yi

Recently a friend on Instagram introduced me to Desmos Polygraph. I used it once in my class and have ideas of how I can use it in the future to build community as well as review skills in class. Watch below as I share how I used it with students to review our current topic. Read More

If you haven’t already, check out Part 1 of this blog post.  I’ve loved using Desmos to create my daily lessons. However it doesn’t need to be created from scratch daily! My favorite tricks in Desmos is duplicating slides from other lessons I find as well as using “copy and edit” to edit lessons to fit myRead More

I love using Desmos Card Sort for quick matching activities. I’ve used it for integer operations as well as graph/equation/table matching. It’s super powerful when it includes feedback for students. Grab the code here!

I’ve used the table in Desmos as a way to provide practice problems to students, assess graphing points from my equation and so much more. When paired with student feedback the table is so powerful.

This was the first “coding” I used in Desmos and it has since led me to a world of possibilities! Reveal answer unfortunately doesn’t provide you with feedback through the teacher dashboard but allows students to assess their own knowledge through the answer provided.

This function has been so helpful for me to provide students with quick feedback in class both through warmups and in practice. Grab the code here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSEtm-Ymxt0&list=PLy6YNm9BHT1sF2Gr1PX2n1q5nWtYSvNCy&index=6

When I first started using Desmos earlier this year in virtual learning, I used it just for warm ups. I’d create a set with two questions, send the link to students and jumped into our activities for the day. Slowly I realized that my two question Desmos set could be expanded to a whole lesson.Read More

The dreaded select all that apply questions! My students have ALWAYS struggled with these question types and Desmos makes it so much easier to set up these question and provide students with feedback on their work.

If you’ve been following me, you know my recent obsession has been Desmos! Desmos is so powerful in what it provides teachers but the best part is that you can add code into your activities to make it work for you! Follow along as I share how I add code that automatically checks numerical input.Read More
