  6. Ian Stewart’s (2005) book Game, Set and Math includes 12 puzzles linked to the 12 days of Christmas. A favourite is Five Gold Rings. The five gold rings are arranged to maximise the overlaps. At every overlap there is a diamond. You have diamonds of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... carats. Arrange the diamonds so the total number of carats on each ring is the same.

    Try starting small—just two rings, two overlaps and each ring has a total of three carats (1 + 2). Now three rings, there are six overlaps, arrange diamonds of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 carats so each ring has the same total.

  7. Seasonal Values
    Each of the symbols in the grid has a value. From the totals given for each row and each column can you work out what they are?

    The eight symbols have values 1 to 8 and each has the same value wherever it appears.

  19. Some good educational resources for Islamic patterns are available on the web like tilingsearch.mit.edu and metmuseum.org/learn/educators/.

    However, some resources have disappeared from the web. Here's one I found one on an old disk and uploaded as archive.org/details/teachers-b: Teacher’s Booklet: Form, Shape and Space: An Exhibition of Tilings and Polyhedra, 10 October, 2007 – 16 May, 2008, by Liz Meenan and Briony Thomas.

    1. Introduction to the Exhibition

    2. Islamic Art
    2.1 Geometry in Islamic art
    2.2 Symbolism in Islamic art

    3.The Alhambra Palace

    4.The Platonic Solids

    5. Activities
    5.1 Making shapes: Equilateral triangles, hexagons and six-pointed stars using a compass and ruler
    5.2 Making shapes: Squares, octagons, crosses and eight-pointed stars using a compass and ruler
    5.3 Making shapes: Paper-folding polygons
    5.4 Making patterns: Islamic tiling patterns using folded paper shapes
    5.5 Making polyhedra: Patterned Platonic polyhedra using pull-up nets

  20. I tried something different for a client today with ASD, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia & possibly Dyscalculia.

    Whilst they really enjoy number-wheels, as we are still working on their handwriting I felt this was a better option.

    Sit back and enjoy the story…

  22. . @j_lanier is hosting a math talk on Zoom at 5pm ET tomorrow (Fri June 28) as part of his "21st centuary mathematics" learning experience for K-12 math teachers.

    Clyde Kertzer, Kate Stange, & Summer Haag will talk about their work on circle packings. Math teachers - fill out this form for the Zoom link. Will be fascinating! 🧮🧪

    Lots of interactive online learning activities have nifty visual displays of student progress (ALEKS, et al).... is there a way to generate something like that in D2L or Moodle? I remember figuring out the code a million years ago in HTML / Javascript but if there's something already there

  24. For a long time I was struggling with how to organize the various useful websites that I have found for math, science, teacher tools, and general fun. A few years ago I decided to organize them into a Google slide deck, and it seems to be working much better for me.
    And now I share with you all....

    1) Hello, I am a HS math teacher in SoCal. I've taught everything from Basic Math (back in the day) to precalculus. Looking forward to teaching AP Precalculus in the fall.

    2) First apple pie, second donut and third cake

    3) Outside of the classroom, I am a soccer mom. With 2 boys playing club, there's very little down time. Between practices, league games and tournaments, we are busy all year long. In addition to that, I became the photographer for the two teams. I enjoy capturing the soccer action and recording images of my boys doing what they love.

    Thanks @jreulbach and @samjshah for bringing us together.

    I would love to pick your brain on #SBG @Mathvice I attempted it last year but I know it could be better.

  26. Teaching Theorema Egregium in my undergraduate DG class today! My students have done so great this semester I'm really proud of the work they have put in. Our goal is to get to Gauss-Bonnet by the end of the semester. #math #iteachmath #differentialgeometry
