I found this problem somewhere (here or mathstodon?). But I saved the image they posted of the problem. It completely took over my brain. I brought it up over lunch with a few other math teachers, and we argued about it. And I think we came to great solution. Thanks OP! #Teach180 #iTeachMath

Ta daaa! I give you the Lorentz Attractor thanks to the free pattern from #ThreadedTheorems and also @samjshah.bsky.social whose posted work I admired. #StemBroidery #MathArt #MathSky

Here is a problem I thought I’d never have. Our math club is too big! Just over 200. How do we make meetings meaningful and not just chaos? Wow. Gotta think. #iTeachMath #MTBoS #MuAlphaTheta

Pullback cars must mean it’s time for Vroom Vroom ala @fawnnguyen.substack.com . Reviewing linear regressions was never so fun. #iTeachMath #Algebra2

Building hypercubes to round out level surfaces today. Students had fun building 2 different perspectives and trying to match it up with Schlegel diagrams in order to identify the 8 cubes within. A fun pre-Labor Day weekend activity. #iTeachMath #MathSky

Beautiful view on the way to work. Had to pull over and photograph. #sunrise #clouds #sky

Problem solving, what not to do! I love this video clip so much and shared with students today before giving them something challenging to solve. #iTeachMath #MTBoS www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSIk...

Had an extra day with one class compared to others today, so we tried out a @mathforlove.bsky.social activity “Squarable Numbers”. Had 100% participation and lots of good discussion. #iTeachMath #MTBoS mathforlove.com/lesson/squar...

All ready to explore the 3rd dimension. Tri-tac-toe and Qubic. How many ways can you win? #ITeachMath

Two things I always need more of. #iTeachMath #MTBoS #Maths

Just a reminder kids. Thinking can be messy. But it is so much fun! #iTeachMath #maths #MTBoS

Had some fun folding up the Weaire-Phelan structure made using these instructions: www.cutoutfoldup.com/214-weaire-p... This is a model of idealized bubbles fitting together and was the inspiration for the Beijing National Aquatics Center in the 2008 Olympics. #MTBoS #ITeachMath

Recently, my book THEY CALLED US ENEMY was banned – again – in Tennessee. Book bans are out of control. Huge parts of American history are being restricted.

Thinking about pentaminoes today. And it reminded me of a puzzle I hadn’t done in awhile. Looking at it anew, I see one piece is actually a hexamino. I wonder if this puzzle could be redesigned to only use pentaminoes? #iTeachMath #MTBoS

I think this game was made especially for me. #maths 💣 I scored 100% in 199 seconds! vole.wtf/primesweeper/

Navajo wedding vase symbolizing two becoming one will be my submission for #even #MathPhoto25 Next I will work on some even/odd Sodoku variant puzzles while I eat a #pair of cookies for good measure.

I’m a bit late with #symmetry for #MathPhoto25 but I was cleaning out and found a bunch of pencils and was inspired to make this ala George Hart. How many pencils did I use? What sort of symmetry does it have? This will look great until the kids need to borrow a pencil. #iTeachMath

This looks interesting… #iTeachMath #MTBoS

If you were asked to recommend one book, video, conference, etc to a new math teacher, what would it be? #ITeachMath #MTBoS

#MathPhoto25 is about #angles this week. I took this photo at the California Science Center. How many unique angles do you see? Are there more acute or obtuse angles? #ITeachMath #MTBoS

I was watching James Tanton show how to get a formula using the leading diagonals of difference tables at this webpage: gdaymath.com/lessons/gmp/... But I’m stuck on #9. I believe the constant might be off but I not sure why or how. Any ideas? #ITeachMath #MTBoS

I just registered. Super excited!! #ITeachMath #MTBoS #MathEd
