Go Figure

I'm helping Jack study for a math test tomorrow. Solving for variables. Very satisfying. Wish Jack could feel that way, too. Maybe one day.

I read something the other day that made it sound like geometry students (at least in Utah) no longer do proofs. Remember these?

Not that I really know much about math education, but it seems like learning how to do proofs is extremely valuable because they teach students how to use logic across all sorts of disciplines.

Even though I outwardly professed to hate math in school, I actually really liked it. Especially doing proofs in geometry. And I liked balancing equations in chemistry.
