Following the Lightning Talks, we’ll split into breakout rooms to explore individual activities and discuss their implementation.

Presented by Tien Chih, see how knots, movement and fractions intertwine in Conway’s Rational Tangles! While typically done in person, this popular activity has been adapted to remote facilitation for a pandemic world.
Organized by members of the Math Circle community, this three-day online event is geared towards educators looking to start a Math Circle and long-time Math Circle leaders.
This free workshop included math sessions, “Teachers’ Lounge” seminars, and social time to connect with math friends near and far. All MTC members were invited to join the workshop for as many sessions as they liked!
