Join us tomorrow for a “Math Walks for Your Math Circle” webinar, presented by Dr. Koshi Dhingra, founder of talkSTEM. Learn to invite participants to see the world around them through an inquiry-based lens of mathematics and STEM! Thurs., June 6, 4-5pm PT mathcircles.org/events/
talkSTEM: Share. Engage. Inspire. Photo shows a group of people walking through an urban environment of mostly concrete and glass with a row of young trees alonside. The group's leader is wearing an ear microphone and holding a small blue flag high enough for the group to see and follow.

My first in-person San Diego Math Circle since the shutdown was a blast! We learned John H. Conway’s dance notation for #frieze patterns. The joy of teaching this material to 5th and 6th graders is that they actually volunteered to demonstrate the dance moves! @MathCircleNet – at San Diego, CA
