New resources from youcubed!
Dear youcubians,
This is one of those newsletters I really enjoy as we have new and exciting things to tell you about. Thank you to all of you who used some of our Week of Inspirational Math materials, they were downloaded one quarter of a million times! so we know they were used far and wide, which is wonderful.
First, we have made a new video for students. It is 8.5 minutes long and it shares the messages that we think are extremely important for students’ relationships with maths. Please share it with your students – and their parents – and also please share it on social media to get the messages out as widely as we can. Viva La Revolution!

…I never realized how math could be made so interesting besides the way it is usually taught… I will approach teaching math in a whole new light… I feel empowered and motivated to change how I teach this school year. You have taught me to look at math as an art and to teach it as such.

You have opened my eyes to the research behind things such as the negative effects of over-testing and “drill and kill” methods that I sensed intuitively were detrimental…

…I was searching for a process of learning math that would change the attitude of students from dislike to enjoy… this was the change I needed…
