Hey everyone! So I have some #mathart that has been sitting in storage and I’d love to give it away to anyone who is interested. Just cover the cost of shipping and it’s yours! DM me if any of the pieces in this thread are of interest. Notes on a triangle (cardstock, 9x9in)

who, when, where, what, why

What is the correct power ranking for "who, what, when, where, and why?"

Capital Z is definitely the fastest letter in the alphabet

What is the ideal (grill, chill) coordinate pair for the upcoming weekend? Mine is (8,5)

Whoever said “where there’s smoke, there’s fire” has never seen me try to start a fire

Picture book rec: SAM SORTS by Marthe Jocelyn won a Mathical Honor this year but is backlist (2017), and I was so impressed by the variety and richness of math ideas, the excellent paper illustrations, and the silliness and imagination of it all.

Revolutionary Letter #26 by Di Prima ‘DOES THE END JUSTIFY THE MEANS?’ this is process, there is no end, there are only means, each one had better justify itself. To whom?

Irene Thuli was principal of Francis Parker School in San Diego during WW2. In a newspaper article titled, "Now What Shall We Teach?" she says: Shall we spend the next 25 years after this war is over trying to rebuild their faith in mankind, holding peace as the goal of life, or...

Had to think of this cool vintage graphic from 1906. I love how it displays population density in a beautifully simple way. Best practice #dataviz if you ask me. Source: buff.ly/3AA35vO

chanced upon the so-called "People's State of the Union" irl this past Tuesday evening fascinating to hear, live & up close, from several sitting members of Congress! separately (h/t coworker): www.nytimes.com/2026/02/26/o...

What is the biggest number you can visualize on an 8.5 x 11 in. sheet of paper?

It's not a takedown!

We were invited to read from our books, which I did of course. But first I had some opening words, which I thought I'd share with you here. I'll share video too, once that's available.

The next episode of the Mathematical Objects podcast, in which we chat to the lovely @nhoskee.bsky.social about what objects we consider mathematical, and why, is out now!: aperiodical.com/2026/01/math...

New podcast episode! @steckl.es and I have an interesting chat about maths, what it is, and how to communicate that, with @nhoskee.bsky.social inspired by the Public Math 'certified mathematical object' stickers. aperiodical.com/2026/01/math...

As pointed out by @paulakrieg.bsky.social and noted by @mpershan.bsky.social, longtime #mtbos partner and collaborator Malke Rosenfeld passed away last year. She investigated and taught the mind-body math connection, engaging hundreds of teachers and learners in #mathart - dance! RIP great friend!

Doing some preparation for #vehiclechat LIVE (with special guest @triangleman.bsky.social) and wondering why we have not domesticated giraffes... SEE YOU FRIDAY 2 PM PT / 4 PM CT www.instagram.com/nhoskee?upco...

This one is especially for the teachers who are teaching the week of Thanksgiving. #VehicleChat for Google Slides. A seriously silly conversation, perfect before a holiday. docs.google.com/presentation...

New Blog Post: Culture & Identity in the Math Classroom How do elements of the culture students bring into the classroom interact with the classroom culture we create? What does it mean to shift or honor them?

I say we rename it the Fibonacciii sequence

Wait hold up, a square is a rhombus but not all rhombi are squares

yeah... we have to revolt www.washingtonpost.com/technology/i...

Was very excited to enjoy this pint of ice cream while watching Frankenstein. Unfortunately it's not a movie that really gets the appetite going...

❤️ Love this ❤️ @mathforge.org has done what I’ve never been organised enough to do myself, and catalogued every #geometrypuzzle I’ve ever posted on social media. It looks amazing!

Okay, so I’m currently in a fourth grade class starting a new unit. The teacher asked them to brainstorm measurement tools. Usually we just get things like “ruler.” This class is going in totally different directions!

S/O to my friend’s dad for Day 17 of #vehiclechat

Excerpt from Living a Fruitful Life by Frank Oppenheimer. "In thinking about my life, I arrived at some ideas about what was necessary for a fruitful life.

Imagine 4 randomly placed points. Is it more likely that the quadrilateral formed by these points is concave or convex? Or is the probability of either outcome the same?

Are there more quadrilaterals than triangles?

I had fun joining @peterrowlett.net and @steckl.es recently on their mathematical objects podcast, talking about my wood puzzle collection. Most of the time was spent struggling desperately to describe a highly visual topic in an audio-only context. open.spotify.com/episode/0rRM...

If you are on the Gram, make sure you’re following @nhoskee.bsky.social over there so you can play #vehiclechat with the big goofy community he’s been building over there.

NCTM is next week and if you pay me a cool $20 I'll get those slides nice and fixed up for you

Graph Time with Sara and Sean is here! On today's episode we try to recreate the vibe of one of the first graphs that ever inspired Sean in Desmos. Watch us play with math and maybe learn a thing or two about graphing along the way! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQiM... #desmos #iteachmath #graphart

remember when google images was so good?
