Math Trail Tuesday: January 25th meet at 10am at the Cary Library

[Maria Droujkova]

Hello,

Starting on January 25th with a Cary downtown adventure, the Tuesday morning (10am) Natural Math Club will hold open weekly field trips around the Triangle. We will gather at an interesting place, photograph and discuss math found nearby, talk with interesting locals, make removable math street art, and upload our pictures and comments for the world to see. The goals are to actively explore local landmarks, interact with local communities and businesses, move around, and find mathematics everywhere. This activity is free and open to people of all ages. It is multi-disciplinary, including social studies, visual arts, sports and mathematics.

We will meet for the first time in the Cary Library at 310 S. Academy St. at 10am on January 25th. The topic for the first math scavenger hunt is LINES.

You do not have to sign up for the activity, but you can drop me an email. My cell is 919-388-1721 in case we get separated.

I had a lot of response from families with teens to three-year-olds - it will be fun! Dress for the outdoors.

Cheers,
Maria Droujkova
