Math is a universal language, free from politics and partisanship. It connects us all, helping us make sense of the world, solve problems, and build better systems together #ReimagineMath #CountMeIn

Math, when it is properly applied, is not about just solving math problems. Math is a way of thinking about the world. It really is the language of philosophy."

It's #piDay - let's talk about Math

Math affects my life by:

"Reimagining math means ___" → What if it wasn’t about numbers but empowerment, creativity, and sense making?

TRUE! To help kids RE-ENGAGE make time for FREE PLAY. They're hardwired to play & when they do, they learn how to have fun, solve problems, make friends.

Schools, maybe start a Play Club? https://t.co/xmgznqHqzL
