That’s me on the right, happy to be making math in an unexpected space (the Minnesota State Fair in 2015) with some great math friends!! This blog is a space of musing, reflecting, and unapologetic overthinking/question asking. Conversations and push back are not only welcomed but encouraged.
A little more: I am a percussive dance teaching artist, Heinemann author, TEDx presenter, editor, and math explorer.
My book Math on the Move: Engaging Students in Whole Body Learning was published by Heinemann, Fall 2016 and draws on research in math education, cognitive science, and my experience in the math/dance classroom to make the case for how and why the body is the perfect partner in learning math.
Also in 2016 I also the co-authored a book of games, puzzles and activities centered on the mathematics of making comparisons. In 2014 I curated and edited a special issue for the Teaching Artist Journal focused on writing about teaching practice.
