The area of a shape stays the same when it is cut into pieces and re-arranged, but what happens to the perimeter? Sound on for the end! Learn more at our Math + Music webinar series. Part 1 is Nov 15 at 7 PM EST. Sign up at amplify.com/mathwebinars. @Amplify @desmosclassroom
Which is more shaded? #mtbos #iteachmath – at Adelaide, South Australia

Excellent app and demonstration. Was this developed using Swift or Objective-C? Did the student use an app builder? Very interested to know more about the development process.

Motion-induced blindness illusion @Scratch project: scratch.mit.edu/projects/721… Focus only on the flashing green dot. Do the orange dots disappear then reappear? #Scratch #coding #mathland #mathed #edtech #peel21st #codingforkids #makered #onted #creativecoding #opticalillusion

We celebrate the life of Nichelle Nichols, Star Trek actor, trailblazer, and role model, who symbolized to so many what was possible. She partnered with us to recruit some of the first women and minority astronauts, and inspired generations to reach for the stars.

Just discovered your Scratch Memories project; it is wonderful and a fun entry point to begin reflecting on their creative journey. Is the javascript available publicly or is there a link my students' can visit to create their Scratch Memories? Thank you in any case...

In this task, students learn about the classification of 3D projections while exploring the secrets of some famous optical illusions. The task has 5 separate activities, each a separate lesson to be done throughout the school year. Learn more at mathigon.org/task/optical-il…

Has your probability unit gotten you down? Many believe that probability is really simple (and boring) to teach. This set of visual prompts is out to change that thinking! Learn more here: mathisvisual.com/probability… #MTBoS #iteachmath #edchat #mathschat
