Week of Inspirational Math!, is about inspiring students through open, beautiful and creative math. We have chosen different tasks so that students see math as a broad, interesting and visual subject that involves deep thinking. Students will learn important growth mindset messages that will help them feel confident, try harder all year, persist with open and difficult problems and embrace mistakes and challenges. All tasks are low floor and high ceiling - they are accessible to all students and they extend to high levels.

• Day 1 Four 4's
