11 / 29 / 07 -- Prime Day for Learning Math!


Prime Day

11, 29, and 7 are all Prime numbers. That's happened a bunch of times this year. However, today is the last time that will happen this year and we have to wait a few years for it to happen again!

2011 is the next prime year (even if you include the "20"!).

When Two Angles Meet

Welcome to all my new readers who just found this blog in 2023. In the past week (as I write this), this comic was seen a few hundred times and retweeted by a couple dozen people. I'm thrilled to see renewed interest in the old comics. please note though -- they get better over the years. The first year definitely had its rough patches! But I'm still making new comics in 2023! Something about this just aint right.

This blog will soon be open to everyone...

I used to use this weblog for my classroom math classes. However, I moved it to a school-based blog when this domain became blocked at my school.

I'm going to open this up as a general math website for everyone: teachers, parents, students and folks that aren't afraid of math in general.

I'm hoping to finally start posting some of my favorite math-related images and math cartoons, as soon as I can actually find time to create them properly.
