Abstract
- During the summer of 2021, I experimented with a new way of getting children excited about mathematics: math poetry. "Math" can be a trigger word for some children and many adults. I wanted to find a way to make learning math fun -- without the students knowing they're doing math. In this paper I describe some activities I used with students ranging from grades K-12 to the college level and share several poem examples, from students in grades two through eight.
