It’s time for a potentially geekier-than-usual #MathsNewsletter (if that’s even possible)…here’s a sneak peak at Issue 729 729 = 27² = 9³
If I live another 39 years I might move to America just so I can celebrate the date being 2³/3³/4³… Happy cube day, folks!
Gutted to hear Tom Lehrer,the mathematical/musical genius who wrote the song ‘Thats’s Mathematics’ which we recreated in lockdown and that inspired my wee book,has passed away at the age of 97. youtu.be/u7WJkz0WURY?si… Grateful Tom gave us permission to use his wonderful lyrics!
Everyone in Scottish Maths education knows ‘dlbmaths’…today I had the honour of presenting him with the @scottishmaths Achievement Award (and revealing his secret identity!!). youtu.be/ETia0OIY8G0?si… I also got to hear a smashing keynote from my tech support guy @robeastaway!
What is the smallest possible number of seasons before the Premier League winners form another Fibonacci Sequence?! A bonus puzzle from this week’s #MathsNewsletter
Today’s date, 9th April 2025: 3² • 2² • 45² Happy Square Day, geeks!
⭐️ Every year I batter out some last minute papers for National 5 and Higher Maths…if you know anyone who might find these helpful please share! ⭐️ tinyurl.com/2025nat5lastmi… tinyurl.com/2025higherlast… *solutions are in the links…spot any errors? Give me a shout!
Aw, my baby is all grown up…the #MathsNewsletter turns 18 years old today! Over 700 weekly issues of geeky delight- Maths trivia, puzzles, resources, lesson ideas and a milk rota. You might be late to the party, but you can sign up for free by emailing [email protected] ❤️
PiDay 2025…Celebrating #PiDay coinciding with a Lunar Eclipse!🌒 Video roundup of our latest adventure with footage of our trip up Loudoun Hill in the dark, insights from experts @kirstymccabe and @spacedoot and my latest Mathsy song: Pi Me To The Moon! youtu.be/zTgeuh1l9x0?si…
It’s how long until PiDay…?!
Every geek already knows that 2025 is a square year: √2025 = 45 but did you know THIS….?!
And, to keep the "Home and Away" fans happy... ...here's a song about Euler's Identity: e^(iπ) + 1 = 0 an equation that's just as geekily beautiful whether you're at home or away! youtu.be/G_WcdCB6Rdc
And, to keep the "Home and Away" fans happy... ...here's a song about Euler's Identity: e^(iπ) + 1 = 0 an equation that's just as geekily beautiful whether you're at home or away! youtu.be/G_WcdCB6Rdc https://t.co/Bi6xr8hq53
If you spell out, in English, consecutive integers ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR... you might spot that ALL of these share a letter in common with their neighbours. That led to this wee song which I unleashed during my keynote in Australia back in November! youtu.be/Svs2tF1Rtck
I’ve got a wee magic spell for you…grab your copy of ‘That’s Mathematics’ and check this out!!
What an honour to be awarded my MBE in the throne room of Buckingham Palace by The Princess Royal. Grateful to have TeamSmith watching on and that my deviation from protocol (whipping out a copy of the #MathsNewsletter from my sporran) didn’t result in banishment to the Tower!
A wee trip to Buckingham Palace today for the Smiths - so King Charles wasn’t winding me up about that MBE in his New Years Honours List! An unforgettable experience shared with Daisy, Heidi, Logan and the woman who made it all possible (remember MBE = Mainly Because Elaine)! ❤️
⭐️ Here’s the world’s top Mathematician Terrence Tao showing off his copy of my #MathsNewsletter! (You don’t *need* to have a Fields Medal to become a subscriber - just email me [email protected] and I’ll add you to the mailing list)
