A deep blue mottled annulus surrounds a black hole, or the moon's disk during a total solar eclipse. On closer gaze, silver ant-like shapes follow each other endlessly around a torus. The torus is tiled with a golden hexagonal grid. Each ant is isolated in its own cell.

By revealing graphs piece by piece, teachers can build student curiosity and guide them to more effectively make sense of data! ๐Ÿ“Š

Play with your Problems I am a compulsive problem poser. When presented with a mathematical context, I have an incredible amount of difficulty leaving it alone. My teacher instinct is to push, prod, tinker, and/or alter iโ€ฆ

I wrote a new post yesterday:

natbanting.com/play-with-yo...

Itโ€™s about the benefits of teachers tinkering with the problems/prompts we offer students.

(And, tangentially, about the benefits of conference spaces where we are given license to do so)
