It's been a while since I shared this, but if anyone has recently joined Bluesky and is looking for people to follow who teach/post about A Level Maths (and post-16 Maths education), you might find this useful: go.bsky.app/znERv2 If you post about these things and would like adding, let me know 😊

Some beautiful #mathart from Bernat, doing the geometry of Gaudi in #geogebra www.geogebra.org/m/bpsuvype

Anne Lutz Fernandez @lutzfernandez.bsky.social has a fabulous google doc with pushback on 4 common arguments for using AI in education. It includes ethical use/ energy use etc. bsky.app/profile/lutz...

My current AI syllabus statement. I'd love to link to a short, accessible explanation of the ethics and environmental cost of AI. Where would you link? (AND, thanks to many people on here who helped me form this.)

I added a few new itty-bitty paintings to my Ko-Fi shop. Only one set of each ko-fi.com/1626SLXL3044...

Deck of fraction cards: docs.google.com/document/d/1... 72 cards up through eighths, 108 for up to the twelfths.

Please join #ElemMathChat on 1/15/26 at 8 pm CST / 9 pm EST when Annie Fetter,‪@mfannie.bsky.social‬ leads us in a great chat that will definitely include some fun Noticing and Wondering! #ElemMathChat #MTBoS

Here's a free version of the article: drive.google.com/file/d/1sKID... Otten, S. (2011). Cornered by the real world: A defense of mathematics. Mathematics Teacher, 105, 20–25. #MathEd

It’s the first One Hundred Factorial session of the new year tomorrow! I know the forecast is 41°C but nothing is going to stop me having some mathematical joy. (Plus there’s ice blocks in the freezer.) davidkbutler.xyz/one-hundred-...

The most veteran of the first grade teachers in this team always advocates for this point too, and I so appreciate it. When you have to account for every minute, it's hard to justify free play, but the payoff is dramatic.

@slotkin.senate.gov What a start to 2026. Maduro = obvious bad guy. Illegal, imperial US military actions to grab for resources is a far worse thing. Please oppose with all your strength. Thanks for your representation.

Miko Imura/Hirono Tyle shared a blogpost on this cool heptagon based #tessellation. note.com/tairu_mk/n/n... (in Japanese, but translates well.)

Any Detroit area teachers out there who want to take your pick of a large collection of office supplies? DM me for details ASAP if you’re at all interested.

She created some of the original dice images I've used for #unitchats for many years. She also made this gorgeous image that we used (with her permission) as the cover of one of our curriculum books.

This is where I met her and you and so many, many, many of my #MTBoS loves. My heart hurts beyond measure for all who knew and loved Malke. Hey Joy and light will live forever.

I never met her in person, but I worked with her on a piece of hers that I included in Playing with Math: Stories from Math Circles, Homeschoolers, and Passionate Teachers, in 2015. She was lovely to work with. I am so sad.

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!

Thank you @johngolden.bsky.social Your reach is far greater than mine! I will Zoom teaching an introduction to solids class for the Canadian BookBinders and Book Artists Guild in January www.cbbag.ca/event-6403035

Been having a good old time constructing pattern block shapes and then adding designs to the faces. Here's a peak at me pushing them around to see what happens: youtu.be/ss_w0CiQuCY #symmetry #patternblocks #geometry #rhombicPrism #rhombus #bluepatternblock #mathart

New Blog Post: Measuring Growth in Mathematical Reasoning: What Mia’s Thinking Reveals In October, Mia correctly answered 10 out of 12 questions. In December, Mia correctly answered 10 out of 12 questions. Again. And yet, the December interview demonstrated significant growth. How?

I am saddened by the news that Courtney Cazden has passed away. I remember meeting her at one of my first @aeraedresearch.bsky.social meetings, and she was kind enough to talk to me as a doctoral student. (cont'd) cgscholar.com/community/co...

#iTeachMath #MathSky #MTBoS Yay, the next math(s) play carnival is in town! 🎉😍🎠

Yes, late for holiday gifts this year, but good for exploring anytime in math class. Now I'm thinking about the cowlick theorem.

I'll email you. I kind of like this page I made: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I've found a couple new math-y puzzles recently: One Up Puzzle which is a sudoku variant (can't repeat digits in a row or column, but barriers reset the numbers available to use) www.oneuppuzzle.com

Playing with a bad #dataviz IMHO, but Voronoi's was even worse. www.geogebra.org/m/wxsuccda #geogebra

Putting the 4th quarter #MathPlay blog carnival together. Anything you've made or written that you want to share? Anything you've read or watched that you want to share?
