I will already be on a plane by that time and I was SO sorry to miss it. Thanks again!!

Our session is at 2:45pm on Friday. We are investigating the math within forced perspective photography. This session was inspired by your talk on mathematical modeling at NCTM 2015. We would love for you come check out our workshop! Session 469: Engaging Students in Mathematics through Forced Perspective Photography (3018 Moscone West)

Two overlapping sessions (in the 3:00 time frame) are vying for my attention. Pop-up Math: Algebra and Geometry through Paper Engineering (Cherubim Cannon, Donna M. Johnson and Janice Porter) and Using Number Talks in Middle School (Joseph Giera, Connie Laughlin and Beth A. Schefelker). Fortunately the sessions are across the hall from each other. Pop-ups are more of a learning curve for me, so I’m leaning in that direction.

On Friday at 11:00 I am looking forward to Hoyun Cho and Gary Lawrence’s presentation: Challenging (Non-Routine) Problems That Develop Persistence and Creativity. I’m searching for something fresh, something my intervention students will bite on and chew. My goal for them is to become better problem solvers.
