Math Links for Week Ending May 10th, 2019

Thanks to @kreiem I was introduced to Euclidea which, itself is a geometry based game but once you go to the website, you find that it's just the tip of the iceberg. You can play Pythagorea, XSection or a few other geometry and math based games. Euclidea can be played on the web or on Apple or Android products, Pythagorea on Apple or Android and the rest are only on Apple products. Fun stuff for (you or) your kids.

I have a question for everyone...
The idea that things can be composed, decomposed & recomposed happens across many areas of mathematics. Can you give a few examples of this happening in the year you teach please.

Your help is appreciated!#mtbos #iteachmath #mathconceptions

With a bunch of activities that span from grade 7-10, this collection of Desmos activities (created by @KurtSalisbury & @MrJohnRowe) that are themed around classic video games could be great for your kids. Thanks to @AlgebraDesmos for pointing this out.
