On today's episode I sat down with my friend and neighbor Kristin.  Kristin is a former high school math teacher and a current new teacher mentor.  We discussed one question that all math teachers get asked on a regular basis, "Why do I have to learn all of this?"  Kristin also shares a teaching tip about how to respond to students' behaviors.  Finally, Kristin and I talk about the phases of the teaching school year.  Enjoy this week's episode, My Friend Kristin.
