#explodingdots @jamestanton @Mathgarden @JimPropp @TijanaMarkovi05 @mathemalicious @GlobalMathProj Derivation of the GP Sum Formula using Exploding Dots... #visual #fun #math

I love this alternative from @joboaler. Rather than a lot of problems, choose 4 and calculate, write a story, and draw 2 visual solutions. #explodingdots

#explodingdots @jamestanton @Mathgarden @cbrownLmath @JimPropp @mathemalicious @mathplay3 @magiaymates @lilmathgirl @GlobalMathProj @dhimathorg A #Sunday Special with Exploding Dots. #Math is #Fun and #Visual

What are your favorite (potentially long) mathematician quotes? Bonus points if it's not just a pithy restatement of "math is beautiful", but something which changes how you think.

@3blue1brown From @jamestanton explaining how to perform division with #ExplodingDots, and that if you need a dot just draw an antidot... "You can do whatever you want, you just have to deal with the consequences." I've been saying this line at least once a day since I heard it.

#explodingdots @jamestanton @Mathgarden @JimPropp @mathemalicious @TijanaMarkovi05 @lilmathgirl @YamunaN6 @RakhiChawlaEd3D @GlobalMathProj Global Math Week - Time to take inspiration from Gauss and James Tanton ... Enjoy the Exploding Dots Puzzle.

Today's Puzzle Explained with #explodingdots: A calculator, initially displaying 0, has two buttons: + adds one to the number on display; x multiplies number on display by ten. What is the least number of button presses needed to show 5034? How do you know least? @GlobalMathProj

Gotta love the power of place value! #explodingdots @GlobalMathProj @MathPlusAcademy @AIMathCommunity

Showed Y7 this alternative method for subtraction which doesn't require exchanges. Never fails to blow their minds. What are your go-to alternative methods?

MAGIC! Choose an integer between -10 and 10. Note on which card(s) your numbr appears. Sum the card numbers. What do you notice? (Say an empty sum equals zero.) Design a set of cards for -20 to 20. @GlobalMathProj #explodingdots #mathrecess @KiranABacche @cbrownLmath @Mathgarden

Can you explain this bizarre divisibility rule for the number 7 using #explodingdots? It's Day 4 of Global Math Week! #gmw2024

#explodingdots @jamestanton @Mathgarden @JimPropp @TijanaMarkovi05 @mathemalicious @GlobalMathProj The Power of Exploding Dots - Simple Divisibility Rule for 19 ... Enjoy !!

TIL not everyone understands that "long division" is simply "chunking done efficiently". Has that really been forgotten? Was it never known? Will @JamesTanton's #ExplodingDots make it clear again?

Today's Puzzle Explained with #explodingdots: A calculator, initially displaying 0, has two buttons: - subtracts 1 from the number on display; x multiplies it by -2. What is the least number of button presses needed to make 100 appear on screen? How know least? @GlobalMathProj

Here's a mighty curious way to divide by 11. What is going on? Why does it work? Does it work even for something like 21503 ÷ 11? (#explodingdots thinking can be fun here!)

Two steps to problem solving 1. Being your human self and having an emotional reaction 2. Take a deep breath and do something. - @jamestanton #explodingdots

Whoa! This is stunning! Please share photos of the finished product. Just love it! @GlobalMathProj #gmw2020 #explodingdots

The Joy of #Mathematics is year long, but this Oct. 10-17 is #GlobalMathWeek! Our global community will make a special effort to conduct one #ExplodingDots activity, sharing on social media. Learn more about Exploding Dots! #globalmath #globalmathproject
