Really like this. Suggestions where to purchase pre marked circles? Or efficient strategies to create the marked circles on my own. I’m imagining these variations as designs that students can create on our ceiling tiles.
Had a similar conversation with a parent yesterday during parent teacher conversations. This is so much fun.

44-31 lost to Brighton. Part of the OAA-KLAA challenge. Thought we competed throughout and improved in some areas of focus. We fall to 1-2 season.

Three wonderful days @NorthwoodWBB camp with our team. So much growth both on and off the court. Toughness was shown and traditions were continued. Loved all of it. I can’t wait for the 2024-2025 season. #rogb

People are telling me that AI CAN generate math diagrams / illustrations from text. Here are four use cases & how impressed I'd be if you could do it.
ALT Mildy impressed - graphs of lines with two points given.
ALT More impressed - an image of a quadrilateral circumscribed around a circle with point labels and dimensions given.
ALT Very impressed - a parabola with rectangles drawn up to points on a interval with area shaded in.
ALT Extremely impressed. A problem involving an airplane and a radio tower and a person. Illustration provided.
