Lets talk about Math!
Connecting the concepts in our students’ minds. To a secondary school maths student, we teach Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Statistics, Coordinate Geometry… But, very rarely, we tell them what was discovered first, what came next, what was the need/ thought process behind the discovery of altogether a new branch of mathematics. Yes, I mean the timeline of discoveries. […]
Let’s uncover the hidden beauty of the Subject!
Think of an alien who has never seen the flower rose. One day, that Alien goes to nursery to buy a new plant for his flower garden. The gardener comes and shows him a rose plant. That plant is full of thorns and does […]
NDP 2021, Singapore
Happy 56th National Day, Singapore. This year, to celebrate the event, Maths2art explored the use of mathematical functions and relations, collaborated with the students and recreated the official NDP 2021 logo. Sahil Bhargava, a graduate from UWCSEA East took up this challenge and converted Maths to Art via Desmos. Description :The interplay between Math and […]
y = mx + c Maths2Art projects
You know Maths, you know Art – we are going to combine these 2 fields in these projects. Once you have visual understanding of y = mx + c, you can change the slope/intercept of line as per the need of your project. Wish you guys Joy of Learning! If you have thoroughly enjoyed creating […]
Maths2Art is 3 !!!
It gives me immense joy that today, Maths2Art is known as ‘a centre for guided discovery’ where students develop genuine interest in the subject via stories, drawings & discussions and experience the ‘joy of learning’. We proudly train our students for self-study. There is a lot of stress and anxiety associated with Maths. At Maths2Art, […]
Ask ‘WHY’
Today, I noticed a very interesting picture in a grade 4 student’s notebook. And, the description of the picture was even more interesting : A dinosaur head and a dinosaur egg in a multiple digit multiplication problem. Me – Why do you put a zero in the second row of multiplication? Student – This is […]
Have you ever followed a Fly?
Most students learn about Co-ordinate geometry in Grade 7 or Grade 8 and this is how we usually introduce this topic to them: We draw two perpendicular lines on the graph, name the intersection point as ‘origin’ and introduce x & y coordinates to represent any point on the plane. Then, we tell them the […]
Units are the Game Changers in Maths!
Let us take a look at a grade 3 problem: Find the perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 2 m and breadth is 10 cm. Most of the children are unaware of the significance of units, hence, they might simply ignore the units and attempt it this way : 2 + 10 + 2 […]
Fellowship@Maths2Art
We, at Maths2art, are extremely happy to share the details of another new dimension: Fellowship@Maths2Art. Please share it with students/teachers who might be interested in this project. Together, let us uncover the hidden beauty of Maths! About Fellowship@Maths2Art A 10-week program for Undergraduates as well as Post graduate students. Candidates select a project topic under […]
Distributive property – simple & visual
Most of the students learn about Distributive Property in Grade 4 or Grade 5 and this is how they usually get introduced to this topic. a * (b + c) = a * b + a * c I feel that we can introduce this beautiful & useful mathematical property in a more interesting manner. […]
