Hi, #MathTwitter! I help organize the @theJRMF Community-Run Math Circle, which involves a fun math exploration (like the one below) on Zoom once a month, and we are looking for new facilitators! 🧵 (1/9) #ITeachMath #MTBoS

today I discussed mathematical reasoning with a bunch of really great people, then walked up a mountain, and now I'm curled up in bed knitting while watching the snow fall – basically a dream day 🥰❄️🧶 – at Banff, Alberta

who is cutting onions!?
We kept her as long as we could, but this Saturday @MargzettaF says her final goodbye to Pauley 🥺. One of the most consistent gymnasts in school history, Margzetta is a 4-time All-American and All-Pac-12 honoree and the 2021 Pac-12 bars champion. #ThankYouSeniors 💙💛

Knitting + Mathematics! (a few days ago I was planning out a blanket, and it led to an interesting question about Latin squares) #CMSMathRemix @canmathsociety

extremely amused by the fact that today Canada elected a new Speaker and the United States ousted theirs at APPROXIMATELY THE SAME TIME

whoever is managing music in the arena and chose to play Kylie Minogue in between Australia's floor routines is my absolute hero

it is currently a GREAT time to be a Canadian gymnastics fan!! (the men qualifying FOURTH today was not on my bingo card)
Crikey, Canada 🇨🇦. Firstly the women taking bronze last year and securing an Olympic berth, and now the men qualifying for the Team Final and sending a team to the Olympics for the first time since 2008. That is nothing short of a stunning 12 months for their teams.

strategically listening to GUTS on repeat far outside of office hours so my students don't clue into how much I like Olivia Rodrigo's new album ✨

happy first day of classes to me, a wasp fell into my shoe on my way to teach my third (and last) class of the day and now my ankle is swollen and painful 🫠

Mathematicians who use ⊂ when they mean ⊆ are a danger to society.

I wish I was recording my reactions but instead I am messaging @TammyRosner in the wee hours of her morning about how knowing 65,536 is a power of 2 helped me logic my way to an answer in the quiz portion
