Archimedes discovered that if you add the volume of a cone and a sphere, you get the volume of their bounding cylinder. It’s one of the most beautiful results in 3D geometry! Learn more at math.fit/sphere-volume

White boards are UP and we’re LOVING them in Ms. Peters’ classroom 🙌🏻 😍. Thank you @FCCPSFacilities for making this happen!! Alg 1 students are crushing a thin-sliced task (credit: @JJaysonMath!) on simplifying rational expressions. #ThinkingClassroom @mehms

If the purpose of education is to score well on a test, we've lost sight of the real reason for learning. 🧠

My Saturday morning thought for the future of mathematics:
1) Estimation is more important than calculation, we have calculators for precision.
2) Analysation over memorization, the internet has information it's more important to be able to analyze information.
