I would like to thank Trisha Marsh for inviting me to Region 9 ESC’s conference on June 17th. The participants were very excited about my math strategies. They were also willing to share the strategies that were shared with their colleagues after they return for the 2025-26 school year. I hope to return to Region 9 ESC during the 2025-26 school year.
