I’d love to propose a chapter about the beauty of fractals!

Question for #MTBoS #iteachmath:
What are your favorite websites to go to for either (1) Warm Up activities or (2) 3-act math tasks?

Some of the sites I've used over the years have moved or are no longer active. So trying to get some fresh ideas and update my list!

Do you need more math puns in your life?

Check out my new book: A Very Variable Adventure.

It’s packed full of math jokes on every page.

Now free on Amazon for a limited time. www.amazon.com/Very-Variabl...

As an undergrad I worked briefly with Bela Julesz, absolute icon, and when I look at these random dot stereograms my eyes fall instantly back into it like I never stopped.

Math: Just for the Joy of it!

In #mathstoday we had a blast exploring @mathforlove.bsky.social's number palindrome task which can be found here mathforlove.com/lesson/numbe.... This is probably my favorite non-curricular task along with Tax Collector.

I love this whole thread!
