We're delighted to more actively share than usual @mathmoves.bsky.social #mathical books w/our students. For 1st time we're in the readathon www.mathicalbooks.org/readathon/ - so far have read books like 'Which One Doesn't Belong', 'The Woman Who Split the Atom:The Life of Lise Meitner' etal #mtbos

Stand-up math comedian @standupmaths.bsky.social Matt Parker shares the "the most romantic shape in mathematics", intertwined Möbius hearts easily made with strips of paper and scissors. #mtbos

Make a 3-4-5 right triangle and inscribe a circle (make a circle that is just big enough to touch the sides of the triangle). The area of that circle is exactly πr² or π square units! #mtbos

We will be at SciREN #SciREN tonight at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences sharing our math resources with other teachers. It's always a great event - how could it not be with teachers?! sciren.org/networking-e...

We had a a lot of fun at BugFest naturalsciences.org/calendar/bug... and had activities for all ages at our table, drawing many interested families. #mtbos

Thanks to @mathowitz.bsky.social for reminding us that 2025 is itself a perfect square! We asked our students in Jan. what its square root is (and how to easily find it), what the next perfect square year will be, and how many perfect square years the United States has had since 1776. #mtbos

Happy Triple Square Day! #mtbos

Today is the big day! We've been teaching math for several years and now, based on many requests, are offering our 1st language arts class starting today running for 10 weeks. We're considering additional ELA classes and tutoring - and of course math! Join us - trianglemathinstitute.com . #mtbos

We are getting ready for our first level one and level two classes starting this afternoon! #mtbos

Thanks to Coco cocochapelhill.com for hosting our school year kickoff party. We had over 80 students/families for a #juliaRobinsonMathFestival #mathGames, lots of great #vegan food, photo booth, reveal of our new tie-dyed t-shirt for each student, and just a nice #mathisfun time together. #mtbos

We had our last playdate/get-together of the summer Saturday evening. Classes start in just over a week with our kickoff party this Friday. #mtbos trianglemathinstitute.com

We have a big kickoff party before our school year begins on August 24th. Join us for math classes 1st grade through high school, our first offering of language arts, and/or tutoring ages 3 through college. Contact us for questions or to schedule an assessment via trianglemathinstitute.com . #mtbos

It's easy to calculate the sum of the factors of any positive integer. Check out our most recent video that demonstrates how at tinyurl.com/mathInstSumFactors . It's one of many free handouts and videos that we love sharing at trianglemathinstitute.com/math . #mtbos

We had our second playdate/get-together of the summer this evening. It’s great to see continuing and new students and their families plus several of our teachers! #mtbos

Several of our teachers enjoyed 2 1/2 days of math teachers’ summer camp at NCCAT nccat.org in the mountains of N.Carolina. We explored w/other elementary through college teachers topics like ‘folding fractions’, equitably slicing bread, AI, & more - w/ good food & better company. #mathcamp #mtbos

We had our first play date/get-together of the summer. We miss our students & their families - we love every opportunity to reconnect with past and new students! #mtbos

Dr. Med Kharbach of Educators' Technology shares a set of math TED talks. #mtbos

Happy #MemorialDay ! #mtbos #iteachmath

We're excited to offer language arts classes this fall! Our families expect rigor&fun in math classes. We'll maintain the same standards w/ LA. Our 1st classes will be taught by Dr Emily Brewer, writer, editor,& award-winning teacher #languageArts @carrboronc.bsky.social @chapelhillnc.bsky.social

We enjoyed sharing #mathisfun activities like Towers of Hanoi, subitizing, #origami & more incl a talk on math teaching ideas at NC #Homeschool Cnvntn www.modernhomeschools.com @raleighnc.bsky.social today. We had frequent visitors & loved meeting so many families! #mtbos tinyurl.com/mathInstProm...

Registration for 2025-6 classes starts soon. We’re trying a few daytime #homeschool classes, a language arts class, & a new 1st grade class. Classes go through algebra & geometry with tutoring ages 3 through college. #mtbos #languageArts trianglemathinstitute.com, trianglemathinstitute.com/poster2

We have a new lesson aimed at 2nd-4th graders (though also may be interesting for older grades) on Square Numbers we just shared at trianglemathinstitute.com/math and directly at tinyurl.com/mathInstSquareNumbers . #mtbos

There's an easy way to take any positive integer and find the number of factors it has; just do a prime factorization, add 1 to each of the exponents, and multiply those incremented exponents. We show you why and how in our video tinyurl.com/mathInstNumFactors. #mtbos #numberTheory

We just finished hosting two sessions of the #mathKangaroo #mathCompetition serving about 60 students grades 1-11. #mtbos mathkangaroo.org/mks/

We are ready to welcome students to Thursday’s Math Kangaroo #mathCompetition! Tests and answer keys are ready to go and table assignments for students made. #mtbos #mathKangaroo

We love our math classes, this year for grades 2 through high school, but we also tutor many, all ages through college. With our youngest (3 yrs old) we do short in-person experiential sessions to build number sense & logical thinking skills. Check out trianglemathinstitute.com/tutoring. #mtbos

We love welcoming new students. We assessed three students today; one joined almost immediately and another likely will soon join, both students for classes tomorrow. The third just came for an early 2025-6 assessment and will join in the fall. #mtbos #rollingAdmissions

We love games like 24game.com. A 3rd grader of ours made a video sharing how to play it w/her own cards. #mathisfun - there are so many math games&puzzles. Do you know Ben Orlin of mathwithbaddrawings.com? Check out interview artofproblemsolving.com/blog/articles/math-puzzles-vs-games-with-ben-orlin

We're well into 2025 but wanted to send belated holiday greetings. In late December we had a holiday part with 70-80 students, teachers, teaching assistants, and families enjoying a very nice #vegan meal at Vimala's Curryblossom Cafe followed by a math white elephant gift exchange. #mtbos #mathParty

Our younger students looked at counting number of gifts in #theTwelveDaysofChristmas; our older ones in "50 Days of Linear Equations". There's fun exploratory math for all levels and cool patterns to be found including the hockeystick pattern in #pascalsTriangle . #mtbos #mathisfun #happyHolidays

We've been on twitter since we started but decided to explore @bsky.app . We love teaching math - our site is trianglemathinstitute.com. #mtbos
