If you’re into math education — or just curious about how learning math could possibly be fun — you’ll definitely want to check out the latest edition of the Playful Math Carnival.
It’s a collection of awesome blog posts curated by John Golden and published on the Math Hombre website:
The whole point of the carnival is to show that math doesn’t have to be tedious or repetitive. Through a bunch of fun and engaging posts, we celebrate math that’s playful, creative, and totally relevant to everyday life.
Because what could be more relevant that having fun while we learn?
In this edition, you’ll find everything from math puzzles and games to humor and much more — even a spooky monster escape room!
So if you want to mix up your math teaching and make it more enjoyable for your students (and for you!), definitely check out the Playful Math Carnival. Happy reading!
Wanted: Hosts for 2024
The Playful Math Carnival is a joint effort. We depend on our volunteer hosts to collect blog posts and write the carnival each month.
Putting together a blog carnival can be a lot of work, but it’s a great opportunity to share the work of bloggers you admire and to discover new math-friends online. I love that part of being a host!
Classroom teachers, homeschoolers, college professors, unschoolers, or anyone who likes to play around with math — if you would like to take a turn hosting the carnival, please speak up.
Check the details on the carnival’s home page, and then leave a comment here or email me directly to let me know which month fits your schedule.
