Math is a totally lovable subject. If you do not feel this way, it is time to inject some mathematical romance into your classroom. https://xitter.cf/t.co/RTsZEtlELa

Temple Grandin doesn't see the need to teach algebra. Hear her out, it's about more than just teaching algebra. theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

I am a recent convert to really appreciating algebra, but it took a dear friend showing me the beauty of it to get me there.
This is such a great idea.
After dinner math... Roll the dice. Find the product. Draw ANY rectangle with that product. Keep the Blockus rules of having to share a corner with an area of your color (not an edge). Can't fit a rectangle? Strike. 3 strikes you are out. Biggest total area wins. #mathgames

Could I get some feedback on these three logos, please? Reply with a number if you like it: 1 - Tribar with mu 2 - Black and gold 3 - Circle with mu 4 - Keep trying

If you can pick a better line at the grocery store, you're a math person. Would you pick a line with two half-full carts or a line with five hand baskets? Your decision is a complex math optimization problem. Don't believe me? This is what you are doing: fivethirtyeight.com/features…

If your students can create a math meme à la Howie Hua, then they probably understand the math pretty well.
Today's meme of the day since we were sharing the many ways we mentally calculate 17+18. How would YOU mentally calculate 17+18?
Doing math #1. This is me today doing some math. What math do you think I am doing? Reply with your thoughts. I'll put what I *think* I am doing in a reply.

Remember those old 'when a train leaves the station' problems? That's one math problem I am doing. I think the other math is a probability problem. What is the likelihood of being able to cross safely? But being updated constantly. And it's all estimation and mental math.
if anyone tries to make you feel dumb because they go to MIT just know the entire center for theoretical physics was brought to a halt today because someone brought in a cute dog

I love that Howie goes beyond seeing the pattern to explaining it. Such a great role model for my students.

I've been working hard on some coding examples to explore some fun and intriguing mathematics. The Collatz Conjecture collection is almost ready for prime time. Sneak peek: scratch.mit.edu/studios/3134…

At first, I thought this was an easy problem. Now I recognize just how really awesome it is.
Here is a beautiful and deep problem to try. Looking forward to seeing how you tackle it. One stick is broken into 3 parts. What is the probability that these 3 parts can be arranged to form a triangle? #probability #combinatorial #geometry #math #fun #SQRTTime

What is up with @Grammarly lately? It also seems to not like purposeful commas.

Nice! There are so many ways to solve this problem depending on your mathematical knowledge.
