Yes, I teach the area model to my students too!

Yes! I teach Algebra and shiver every time I see this.!But it makes for such a great teachable moment!

Sounds like fun!!! I have an origami angle measure activity I can share with if you want!

I just wanted the students to explore the patterns - some had never seen or heard of a cardioid before. They really enjoyed the process and sharing what they came up with their peers!

Love this! We just explored cardioid circles in Math Art Club - I am going to share your video next session. Thank you!

I agree! Vertical alignment is critically important. I led a session at FCTM and SREB where we engaged in VA conversations and it was so illuminating!

Good idea!

The students loved it! One of my students has been playing in Desmos with graphs and showed me how he created a flower with different functions today. I told him I should put in for the Desmos Art comp!

I agree! At first I thought the yellow part of the diagram was supposed to represent the 10% shorter.
