Math biographies for my kids

MJ Lawler:

My older son came home from day 2 of 7th grade today. As we chatted about his day at school he told me that they wrote “math biographies” in math class today. I didn’t press him on what he talked about in his bio, instead I thought it would be fun to use the same idea for a short set of math videos tonight.

Here’s what my older son had to say about his “math biography”

Favorite topics he’s learned about so far: higher dimensions and 3d printing

Topic he’s excited to learn: trigonometry (which he thinks is advanced geometry)

Fun sort of one-off project we’ve done: Creating the 120-cell
