I really liked the presentation and the activity.
I included what we did with my math class the following day and they really enjoyed it.

Bluebird Math Circle is a supportive community of teachers, students, and their families–everybody who cares or is curious about mathematics, education and Indigenous young people’s futures. Every other week Bluebird MC publishes a flyer with fun and engaging activities that are accessible to everyone. We play with activities in class, at home, and at live online Circle meetings. After each meeting, we publish a recap where Circle members and friends share the ideas they developed in the meeting, ask additional questions, and suggest future topics. Bluebird Math Circle is a community-owned project. You too are invited! To join, email Bluebird, or sign up for newsletter, or register for the next meeting.
