Do you enjoy math? I hope so! If not, browsing this post just may change your mind.
Welcome to the 106th edition of the Math Teachers At Play math education blog carnival — a smorgasbord of links to bloggers all around the internet who have great ideas for learning, teaching, and playing around with math from preschool to pre-college. Let the mathematical fun begin!
By tradition, we start the carnival with a puzzle in honor of our 106th edition. But if you would like to jump straight to our featured blog posts, click here to see the Table of Contents.

If you slice a pizza with a lightsaber, you’ll make straight cuts all the way across. Slice it once, and you get two pieces.
If you slice it five times, you’ll get a maximum of sixteen pieces. (And if you’re lucky you might get a star!)
- How many times would you have to slice the pizza to get 106 pieces?
