#mtbos #iteachmath
We are two weeks out from the start of "21st century mathematics", a program I run for K-12 math teachers. (Register now!) The program helps teachers connect the math they teach with some math that has been discovered in the 21st century. The program is flexible, free, & online.
All the info and the registration form can be found here:

Please pass this along. And if it's a good fit for you, I hope you'll join in!
As a math appetizer for the program, here is a six-minute TED talk by mathematician Arthur Benjamin. The talk features the Fibonacci numbers, one of the two math topics for this year's program. (The other is bubbles!)

"While everyone is glad to have a much-deserved break from the routine of early mornings and late evenings, as teachers we often end the school year thinking about the things we 'just didn’t have time to cover'."

Ten squares. The first one has perimeter 14. The second one has perimeter 22. Can anyone find ones with smaller or bigger perimeters? Or other examples that match these?

Post-its and pattern blocks are both great for exploring this problem. So is Polypad: polypad.amplify.com/p

“The program was so well organized!!! You explained the structure in advance. The materials were readily available. [...] The problem sets were wonderful. The problems were interesting and didn’t assume a lot of background knowledge."
If the program is a good fit for you, I hope you'll join in! And please do pass info along to colleagues and through networks so that it can reach folks who would enjoy and benefit from participating. Thank you!
