As a high school then college math instructor, I hate the phrase improper fraction because it is the preferred answer every time, but the word improper gives it a negative connotation. The only time a mixed number is helpful is as a final answer to a word problem, and decimals are much more common.

I was so confused with your post that I waited until others posts were made, because of course the hypotenuse of every triangle exactly lines up as the leg of the next one. 🀣 But I get it now.

A wise creature once said, "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering."

These days, when fear is all too common, today is a great moment to remember the strength in courage, unity... and hope.

Free Tampons Are Great, But What We Really Need Is Menstrual Justice This Women's History Month, let's make real change by dismantling the systems of oppression that hold menstruators back.

Menstrual equity, or equitable access to menstrual products, should be an inherent right for all menstruators. ‡️

Do I read too fast? I only use the NYT Games app that my job provides full access for. And the website for Spelling Bee hints. The two tables for length and two starting letters really help focus my limited time. Just earned a good chunk of time back in my day, I guess.

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank.

I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history.

Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

In #mathstoday I made a game out of transforming functions using a dice, and flipping 6 coins. Then the students sketched the resulting graph on their whiteboards.
