@dbarman.bsky.socialCan high school & college students find a rule of thumb for converting btwn hourly rate and annual salary? What is the Rule of 72? Can you model buying power if inflation is more than rate of wage growth?
Can middle and elem school students estimate cost of living in their town?

@mathmisery.bsky.socialIf your school blocks websites or you don't want another computer activity, it's totally fine. You can download pdf files and project them or print them out for offline group work.
If you want to discuss more, reach out. I'm happy to help.
@mathmisery.bsky.socialI've made this super friendly for the classroom. No ads!
The Pro plan is $7. Once. No monthly plans. No subscriptions. No upsells. No ads. Literally, just once $7.
Design your boards, have dedicated links, pdf downloads, other game modes.
@mathmisery.bsky.socialWhat's also nice, is that if you have a Smart Board or a projector, it's a great collaborative classroom activity. Here's us doing this in Kindergarten. Wouldn't you know, HexSum became a regular request for practicing our tens facts.
@mathmisery.bsky.socialYou can use this as a pen and paper activity with a pdf download to print or email.
This is a calm activity and students can do this at their leisure. I'd think of this as another resource at your disposal. You can choose other target sums, too, not just 10.
@mathmisery.bsky.socialOne suggestion is to use it as a scavenger hunt. Can you find pairs of hexagons next to each other that add to ten? It doesn't matter if students "solve" the board. They are getting a taste of success by finding any solution.
Click Submit and get a dedicated URL.
@mathmisery.bsky.socialThen when you click on "Assign Values" a board is automatically generated for you, as seen in this image preserving the paths you chose. All of these are random 10 pairs.
So what do you get out of this?
@mathmisery.bsky.socialLet's say you are focusing on just pairs that add to 10. As a teacher you can just mark off paths that are two long, like this image [one image is partially complete, the other is an example of fully complete]
@mathmisery.bsky.socialIn this thread, I want to introduce "Design" mode. It's great for number fluency and teachers can create activities on the fly. Here's an empty board with a target of 10, in case you are focusing on number bonds / tens frames.

@tcorica.bsky.socialYes - again a little class time given to this story will reap huge benefits. #iTeachMath. #MathsToday
@mathmisery.bsky.socialA long and windy write up about AI, Homework, and the Math Classroom
@dbarman.bsky.socialWhat a #mathisfun time at @weaverstreetmarket.bsky.social w/a smart & engaged 5-yr-old. We estimated then counted grapes, playedJumping Julia, a #JuliaRobinsonMatgFestival jrmf.org game, & tried ‘Which One Doesn’t Belong’ by C Danielson talkingmathwithkids.com/shop/which-o... . #mtbos #iteachmath
@ahestenes.bsky.socialGot my ropes ready for a system of equations task next week. Now I can enjoy my long weekend. #iTeachMath #MTBoS. #Algebra2
@dbarman.bsky.socialStarting in fall 2027 aopsinstitute.org looks great for advanced high school students wanting to start exploring college-level mathematics! #mtbos #iteachmath
@msmooneymath.bsky.socialDesigned another interactive poster for my classroom. A student already asked how long it took me to make this. (Not very long thanks to copy and paste.) I have another student who can't wait to draw n=4 of the koch curve. Still looking for more ideas!! #iteachmath #mtbos
