Enjoy Math Everywhere!

My team and I would to thank MathTalk for the numerous ways you’ve allowed The Curious George Store to learn from, take part in, and benefit from your work. Having done the MathTalk tour prior to the rest of my team, I cannot tell you how much joy I felt watching their faces light up more and more with each step of their tour. That day, my team could feel and see our vision for The Curious George Store unfolding in front of us.

Just to say I had a great time on Friday morning walking around with the crew, and I think the whole project is a winner. Love that it works with and without technology--there’s something for everyone here—school groups and neighborhood families, very little kids and bigger little kids, people who love and have technology, and people who could care less about it and/or don’t have it, people who like to have a plan and people who like to stumble upon cool things to do in the neighborhood.

What a treat this morning was! Thank you so much for sharing your time, your neighborhood, your stories, your iPads, and your math passion with us. We had SO much fun. I knew this would be a treat for the youth librarians, but I had no idea how much of a treat. Everyone was bubbling over with enthusiasm all the way back to their libraries after, and we are all so very enthusiastic about this work that you are doing. We truly can't wait to share with the families we see in our libraries.

One of the things we love about working with MathTalk is... Thinking about the many fun math opportunities that exist in lots of different spaces and places; Working with artists, designers, families, and educators to bring math to life; Seeing math excitement and genius in kids and parents; Doing math in public. For fun!; Exploring so many new and wonderful neighborhoods, guided by the people who live and work there.
