Crewton Ramone's
Blog of Math

My blog is an under utilized resource.  And best of all it's FREE. HUNDREDS OF POSTS that teach by example. You see actual lessons  with "real" boys and girls 100% unrehearsed. 

Shift your paradigm.

I have to get YOU to change YOUR paradigm and understand they way you were taught via compartmentalized separate subjects, grades and levels might (just maybe) NOT be the best way to teach math, and is part of the reason the teaching of mathematics in general in the USA is an utterly abysmal failure.

The DOEs at the Federal and State levels have done everything they can to BLOCK this method from going mainstream and being used in public school classrooms. If they do use manipulatives they barely use manipulatives and they teach teachers to use them in the dumbest way possible, and they usually use flats rods and units which make math tedious and difficult to preset. 

Most of you recognize that math education is an utterly abysmal failure which is why you are here but the first thing you ask me is couldn't you teach and organize your blog and website more like the way we know doesn't work and is an utterly abysmal failure? Isn't there one track to run on? Too many choices. 

i have organized M0AR training for you. But even that starts in the middle so to speak. You could go to the EZ PZ Overview and start there or you could go to the Getting Started Page which is a little outdated (the CSK is no more) but the information is still quite relevant and start there. The Blog is mostly EXAMPLES of lessons i've done over the years. 440 posts. YEARS worth of content, besides all the content you get here. 

Example IS the lesson. Watch and learn and then turn around and teach it to others or implement in your situation. i also give you formal training that you can't get anywhere else. People usually tell me it's the best or some of the best training they've ever gotten. And that comes from people who have been professional educators for years. . 

If you need and introduction go to the No Mystery Theatre page. 

This blog is basically DEAD now. Have not posted anything much since 2019. But there is still a ton of free math material, lessons and vids. Go to the lower right where it says "labels" and click on one. Many lessons on "algebra" for example or "sample lessons."  Hours of learning for FREE.

Took up too much time for too little return on investment of that time. 

NEW: you can now translate the blog into almost any language: use drop down menu on upper right.

Look for the red arrow at the bottom of each page, it will always point you to blog posts that are relevant to the page you are on at the time or are the next logical step in your math journey.

Fun lesson with a bright little boy.
