On 8th August, I saw an interesting math post on my fb timeline:
Today's date: August 8
818 is the smallest palindrome that can be expressed as the sum of squares of two prime numbers. 818 = 17^2 + 23^2
As usual, I forwarded this message to many teachers and parents groups... and finally shared this my young group of maths lovers i.e. my students, reading the same message as above, with the only difference being... I did not write the two prime numbers: 17 and 23

So naturally they started working on this problem... Click on the link below to know how they all worked together...
Waiting for your comments...
If you find this post interesting/ useful, you may share it with other parents and teachers in your circle...
Thanks and Regards
