Had a subLIME week with our LIME scholars at the #OSEP24 meeting in Washington, DC. More to come, but just thinking about how much I treasure each of these LIMErs. Erica Lembke

One of the best parts of my job is mentoring these 10 doctoral students! I'm so lucky they comprise the PRIME team! Welcome to Kayla and Jason.

I’m looking to elementary teachers in the US to participate in this focus group interview study. If you are or know someone who is eligible, scan the QR code or click the link in bio to sign up!!

Happy Pi Day!

I love this team, our work, and CEC 💕

In our #MathWords presentation at #CEC2025 Mackenna Vander Tuin shared tips for integrating math words during the math lesson. Try the "Which word" activity with students: Which word goes with equal parts? inequality or denominator? Danielle Lariviere Natalie Patton Sarah Powell

It's Mackenna Monday! Mack is a 3rd-year student. She loves all things early math! For her dissertation, she's developing a storybook intervention for Grade 1 students. Mackenna brings the PRIME Team together, and I'm grateful she's on our team!

Happy to share news about our new SCALE-UP project! education.utexas.edu/news/2025/05/0…

Last week, I got to spend time at the University of Kansas with the Math Words team, including two of my doctoral students - Mackenna and Danielle. These two have made such a difference on the project. They are really sum-thing, particularly when they get me in the middle seat!

The UT Austin crew made it to #MCLS2025! We are excited to share our research on math at home, fractions, math vocabulary, problem posing, and word problems! College of Education
