As an ambassador for Global Math Day, my job is to spread the word and share excitement to meet the goal of 1,000,000 people doing Exploding Dots in October. From the Global Math Project website: "Our aim is to thrill 1 million students, teachers, and adults with an engaging piece of mathematics...to initiate a fundamental paradigm shift in how the world perceives and enjoys mathematics. We transform and declutter mathematics content to reveal its coherence, meaning, and joy."

OMG! Based on Carolyn Rim's recommendation, this book has already changed life significantly for the better even though we only started last week! The idea of decluttering and organizing is to take out all of each category of item starting with clothes then books then papers then komodo (most everything else). Her second book, Spark Joy, is an illustrated master class in tidying up and shows step-by-step folding instructions as well as advice on frequently asked questions.

The Common Core State Standards for middle school come to life in this beautifully designed website. These newly published materials were proven in with students and teachers as they were 'polished' in 175 classrooms last school year. Completely free and supported by 13 states, the mission is to "increase equity in education by making excellent curricula available to districts".
