Just as we began talking about Rotational Symmetry, this came on the news. What a perfect example of math in art. Students were in awe of this artist’s work, and it went well with the optical illusions we were discussing in our #ocsbMathUp lesson #ocsbMath cbc.ca/news/canada/thunder-b…

Cookie baking on a wintry ❄️ day! Yum! So how many cookies on the tray so far? How do you know? How did you count?

I spy 60° ‘diamonds’! How many do you see? (Hint: look closely at the second pic as there may be a few ‘diamonds’ hiding in the stars!)

Let’s play “I spy” - but you can’t say 124.
I’ll go first. I spy 62. Do you see it? (I used all the blocks!)
Your turn.

So last week I took a photo of some boxes of potato chips and when I was back at the same shop, I took another photo—can you see the difference? And what difference would it make if I buy some now?

Have been noticing lots of #HalloweenMath 🎃
I wonder...how many boxes of potato chips altogether? How could we figure that out? What would be a reasonable estimate for how many little chip bags in each box? In all the boxes altogether? What would it cost to buy all these boxes?

More wonderings....how many boxes would your principal have to buy so each person in your school could have a bag of chips? How much would that cost?

Someone with eagle eyes might notice that the boxes have helpful information printed on them...

So I just took a photo of a page in a children’s math picture book—the entire book focusses on the ‘differences’ between squares and rectangles...can you see why I wish there was a monkey facepalm emoji? #mathmisconceptions @SACDavidson
