Mathematical Excursions
|
Mythematics offers Mathematical Excursions that encourage curiosity, confidence, and playfulness.
Each Excursion has been designed so that anyone can get started (the puzzles have a low threshold), yet the mathematics is rich enough that profound discoveries are possible (the puzzles have a high ceiling). The goal is to find a place of productive struggle, where each participant feels pleasantly challenged, never overwhelmed. |
I love how you can always be a kind and funny teacher and how your classes are always exciting to experience. |

The Arithmetiquities
|
The Arithmetiquities is a mathematical fantasy adventure in which a quirky band of heroes undertakes a quest to recover a collection of powerful mathemagical artifacts.
The twist is that this tale unfolds through a sequence of mathematical story problems! Each chapter in the story is a puzzling "problem of the week", and the 36 serialized chapters weave the story over the span an entire school year. Download the chapters and learn more at Arithmetiquities.org! |

Mathematics Coaching & Consulting
Mythematics offers customized mathematics coaching for students, parents, and teachers.
Parents partner with Mythematics when they want to support their child's mathematical growth, whether that child is reluctant and needs to develop their confidence, or eager and wants to deepen in their thinking. This work might include a single lesson targeted on a particular curriculum topic, a short course of study on a broader concept, an open-ended exploration session, or ongoing one-on-one tutoring.
Teachers, departments, and schools partner with Mythematics when they want to engage their students in more open-ended mathematical problem solving, but would like coaching around how to create, facilitate, and evaluate those experiences. Professional development is also available around integrating rich mathematical explorations into existing curriculum, and around supporting the social-emotional aspects of learning and teaching mathematics with an inquiry-based approach.
