Looking for resources on Climate change for Math class? Well so was @Stoodle and he got some great suggestions in the comments.  My favourite was the one on Teaching Climate Change with 24 New York Times Graphs. Check them all out in the comments

Are you looking for a new idea for kids to work on their spacial and proportional reasoning skills? Then @MarkChubb3 has some new puzzles for you. I really like his Skyscraper puzzles and these ones, I think are just as good. Give students one of each relational rod and have them cover up the figure seen. He's got several different templates for students to try.

A bunch of new podcasts added to the Math Podcast Page. The first one is a nice episode from @PlanetMoney on how using mode when talking about "average" changes the demographic.

Also, the second season of the Estimation 180 podcast has started. And if you use the Estimation 180 website, this is a nice companion.

Though not a math related podcast, in general, the @AllusionistShow is great podcast about language and in this episode where they talk about indefinite hyperbolic numerals like 'zillion', 'squillion' and 'kajillion'.

The @StoryColider is a great story telling podcast about science (and sometimes math). I this episode, the second story is about Will Tran winning a math award in school after cheating on a math contest.

  2. Hi everyone, Are you into trading or just wish to give it a try, please becareful on the platform you choose to invest on and the manager you choose to manage your account because that’s where failure starts from be wise. After reading so much comment i had to give trading tips a try, I have to come to the conclusion that binary options pays massively but the masses has refused to show us the right way to earn That’s why I have to give trading tips the accolades because they have been so helpful to traders .
