A little over a year ago Hilty Consulting LLC was created. Shortly after, Emily started making plans for us to put on our own math conference. I, of course, thought she was absolutely crazy and couldn't even begin to think about how we could ever pull that off.

During this crazy and uncertain time, Emily and I have been trying to figure out how we can best support you and your students. We received many thank yous for the 3-week virtual math series, and that got us thinking...what else can we do virtually? Meanwhile, Emily's students were telling her how much they missed… Continue reading NEW Virtual Math Game Series
To begin, Emily and I would sincerely like to thank SIS4Teachers for asking us to partner together to provide you an amazing at-home bank of videos over the past three weeks.

I… Continue reading Workstations that Work
Good afternoon from cold, cloudy, grey Ohio. We have decided to post-pone the book study until June 2020. We've posted a bit on the book study and have asked for engagement through Facebook. We haven't seen the amount of involvement as we have hoped for, but we think it's due to this busy time of year… Continue reading Book Study: Limitless Mind
If you are planning on doing the LIMITLESS MIND book study with us and want to earn graduate credit from an accredited university, this would be an easy 15 contact hours of reading the book and participating in the online discussion. Raise your hand if you're a teacher who stays late to get work done… Continue reading Continuing Your Education
