First 'Flourishing' copy arrived! The cover is even more gorgeous than I had imagined. I'm excited and a little terrified that my first book for the general public will be out soon. #math4HF Pre-order at Amazon bit.ly/math4hf or at @YalePress yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780…

NCTM Message from the President is a powerful call to action to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse student population, and make sure all voices are heard. Read it bit.ly/2WlIlWm and share your methods for incorporating diverse voices! @robertqberry
Just finished up the November COOL MATH essay. This month has been an all #explodingdots month for my brain and you think I would have thought and seen all there was to think and see about them. But them dots ... they keep revealing awe! jamestanton.com/wp-content/u… . Enjoy!

The inimitable @drrajshah shares brilliant and insightful words of pedagogy wisdom. Wow! youtube.com/watch?v=HmsA0-Zv… @MoMath1 @MathTeachCircle @eureka_math
It is certainly possible for one triangle to fit inside another even if they share 1 common side length. Is it possible to have two triangles, one sitting inside the other, sharing 2 common side lengths?

Did you realise that #explodingdots is not just for one special week, but all year long? globalmathproject.org. Folk are still signing up by the thousands! Just recently: US, UK, Brunei, Australia, Canada, & New Zealand! Low tech, high tech, no tech @Buzzmath @GlobalMathProj

Yesterday I visited the Haverford School in Philadelphia and got to talk to students and families about the importance of math! The point I almost always try to get across is that even if you aren’t going into a STEM field, math helps you think! And that’s a life skill you need!

I was interviewed by a young women radio host this week about my new book: Limitless Mind - she said this to me. "This really works, I read the book and had the best week of my life". This is why I am passionate about getting these messages out. youcubed.org/limitless-mind/
