Look @DHS_LibraryNews and @EnglishDHS1 - maths and Shakespeare don't have to inhabit separate regions of the Venn diagram after all!!

[Rob Eastaway @robeastaway]

Exciting news: here's the cover of my book about Shakespeare and maths, coming out in April.
I spent the last two years researching it, which took me from Portsmouth to Keswick via Stratford-upon-Avon. The most fun I've ever had on a book project.

Some hugely dodgy clues and even dodgier apparent answers in this crossword book for 6-8 year olds... Beware bad maths.

Mathematical 3D printing! Here's a Voronoi-themed Klein bottle and a Catenary Vault sculpture.

[DHS Maths @DHSMaths1]

In @derbyhigh6th Further Maths, we're learning about hyperbolic functions and the resulting catenary curves that we see everywhere in nature and sometimes in architecture! Suspend a cable or rope freely between two points and it may look like a parabola (quadratic) but oh no...🧐

[DHS Maths @DHSMaths1]

Apparently this is the "GCSE maths question that 100% of parents got wrong" according to a few online news outlets. Can you do any better?

[DHS Maths @DHSMaths1]

Mrs H wasn't just _on_ the trip, Mrs H drove the minibus! Huge thank you to her and Mr M for taking our mathematicians. We look forward to hearing all about it 🤓
