This one runs deep. The surprisingly complex question, "How many stairs?" has perplexed and kept so many of us curious for months now! Take a listen to see where @mikeflynn55.bsky.social and I land on how to count stars.

But, this also means that it has been nearly 5 years since the great trapezoid debate began. cc: @rob-baier.bsky.social @cluzniak.bsky.social @berkeleyeverett.bsky.social and so many others that engaged in that debate.

Just popping in here to remind you all that 5 years ago today Taylor Swift announced Folklore. Which means that it has been exactly 5 years since @sneffleupagus.bsky.social and the rest of that Mt. Holyoke cohort did NOT interrupt my teaching to let me know it was announced. I still feel hurt.

Beyond up for that!! Let’s make it happen. Currently through the first two chapters of the teachers guide. Lots of learning there for me!

I finally got @triangleman.bsky.social’s How Did you Count? in front of some 2nd graders today! Their work reminded me that math should be about honoring thinking, engaging with other’s ideas, and trusting the math that lives in our students’ heads. #HowDidYouCount #MathEducation #MathCuriosity

Zak Champagne @zakchamp.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

Fair. It was infamous within a small circle of us because I built a math task from it and it ended up with more questions than answers. And we spent a lot of time talking about it. So when Mike and I got to go together, it was closer to a pure definition of infamous.

Had a chat with @zakchamp.bsky.social this morning about the odds of creating a perfect March Madness bracket then looked it up. 🤯 Also learned what a quintillion was.

Amazing find! Interesting that they are labeled “step” and not “stair.” One argument is that there is a difference between a step and stair.
