About me

Megan Backman
I'm working on my secondary education credential with an endorsement in mathematics. I'm passionate about using my computer science background within my future mathematics classroom. I believe the future of this country depends on creating technologically literate students who do not solely use technology, but have the ability to create technology. I'm the mother to 2 young girls who started learning the basics of coding at 3 years old (Robot Turtles, anyone?). Follow me on Twitter @MBackmeg

Simply Complex

"The art of simplicity is a puzzle of complexity."

Z: Do you know where bacon comes from?
Lily: The store.
Z: No, pigs. Bacon comes from pigs before it goes to the store.
Lily: That's a funny joke.

... first she said corn grows on trees, now bacon comes from the store... oh Iowa, our daughter is failing you.

While watching 101 Dalmations:
Lily: Why is Cruella so mean?
Nathan: Because she didn't eat her vegetables.
Lily: Are you kidding me?
Nathan to me: Did she just call me out?

L: (while out shopping) Mommy, that lady has a big bottom.
M: Yes, but that is okay, isn't it?
L: Yes... (long pause)... but how does she fit on the potty?
So grateful this conversation occurred outside the lady's earshot!

L: Mommy, I hear secrets in my bedroom.
M: You do?
L: I hear them right now.
M: What do they sound like? (thinking our house is haunted)
L: Listen
M: You mean the crickets? (coming from her night sounds toy)
L: Ya, those.
