Really like this. Suggestions where to purchase pre marked circles? Or efficient strategies to create the marked circles on my own. I’m imagining these variations as designs that students can create on our ceiling tiles.

Using straight lines to make curves… Maths once again bending the rules beautifully✨
Had a similar conversation with a parent yesterday during parent teacher conversations. This is so much fun.

If you’ve ever moved into a new home, then you know how difficult it can be to steer bulky furniture through narrow hallways or around awkward corners. A new proof reveals the biggest shape that can slide down an L-shaped hallway. Richard Green reports: quantamagazine.org/the-large…

In 1907, Henry Dudeney showed that you could dissect a square into 4 pieces that can be rearranged to form an equilateral triangle.

ALT A square is shown divided into 4 pieces: one triangle at the upper left corner, and three irregular quadrilaterals. The pieces rotate apart, hinged at three shared vertices, and swing around to reform as an equilateral triangle.

Very engaging. I shared with pre algebra students that there are two factions of teachers when solving an equation. Some say you must show your inverse within the equation and others say it’s okay to write inverses beneath each expression of the equation.
Square root of 9: Is it 3 or -3? When are there two “answers”? 🤔 #mtbos #iteachmath #mathematics #math #maths

Three wonderful days @NorthwoodWBB camp with our team. So much growth both on and off the court. Toughness was shown and traditions were continued. Loved all of it. I can’t wait for the 2024-2025 season. #rogb

People are telling me that AI CAN generate math diagrams / illustrations from text. Here are four use cases & how impressed I'd be if you could do it.
