The top two images show radial designs created with 21st Century Pattern Blocks. The top-left image features six double hexagons arranged around a central hexagon. In the top-right image, six regular hexagons are added to fill in the gaps between the double hexagons, completing the radial pattern. The bottom two images show the outlines corresponding to the designs in the top images.

The main image in the top left shows a radial design created with 21st Century Pattern Blocks. It was built by arranging six identical double hexagons around a central hexagon. Each double hexagon is composed of two heptagons joined together using two darts. The gaps between the double hexagons are filled in with regular hexagons made from six blue rhombuses and twelve green triangles. The first image along the bottom shows the double hexagon made from four red trapezoids, six gray darts, eight blue rhombuses, and eight green triangles. The rest of the images along the bottom and on the right show the progression of the design.

A Temporal Adventure ​The last day before March Break in a high school is anything but routine. Attendance is low and students are often distracted. Students who do show up deserve something better than business as...

What do you do in math class on the last day before March Break? Instead of a worksheet, we played a time-traveling calculus adventure game I built with AI. I describe the process of creating this on my blog. #ITeachMath pbbmath.weebly.com/blog/a-tempo...

Pi: In the Sky, on Earth and at the Library of Congress | Minerva’s Kaleidoscope What’s Pi Day? Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator Fellow Ralph Pantozzi explores circles all around us in the Library of Congress’s collection.

One might even say that circles “make the world go ‘round”. Happy Pi Day! #iTeachMath blogs.loc.gov/families/202...

We had a fun group at Chapel Hill #mathCircle on #PiDay exploring circles including exploring measurement errors and finding that a little more than 3 diameters makes a circumference. #mtbos #iteachmath #mathisfun

In der Physikklausur wurde die Schreibweise einer Schülerin jetzt zum Verhängnis. Sie hat beim Umformen einer Gleichung durch den Sinus geteilt und sin^-1 geschrieben und dann die sin^-1-Taste des Taschenrechners genommen.

Day 2 of our 2026 CMC Central Symposium is about to start. We have the nation’s best math educators sharing their wisdom with the teachers of Central California…and beyond. Our students deserve it.

Reducing the Cognitive Load of Math Tasks With Strategy Cards When students create a visual resource to scaffold problem-solving, they can approach independent work with more confidence and focused attention.

When it comes to solving math problems, some students get stuck, unable to overcome the cognitive load of applying a solving strategy. That’s where strategy cards come in. ✖️🃏

Learn how to create and use them with students to ensure they can approach problems with confidence!

In High-Performing Math Classrooms, Words Matter Math vocabulary alone isn’t a silver bullet—but research shows it’s linked to stronger academic achievement when paired with expert teaching practices.

Like switching from “what’s left over” to “remainder,” small shifts in classroom language can boost students’ understanding of math. Here are practical ways to build precision into your daily lessons. 🎯

Geometry students played CONSISTENCY with the polygons set. Lots of fun had by all.

It's a Geometry game. Each player lays down a card that is consistent with the previously played cards. If you'd like to play-test it:
