Mathigon…my new love

Perhaps a few years ago (maybe 2018?) I first bumped into Mathigon. It was a beautifully designed website calling itself the “Textbook of the Future”. The books, games, and virtual manipulatives are so wonderfully created that they make math look joyful…which it is! Well…Mathigon continues to add to its website, making it one of the most useful websites for teaching math. Please give it a visit.

Especially, play with the Polypad, which is an incredibly versatile virtual manipulative that both students and teachers will enjoy using.
