Mr. Sindel is passionate about his Owala water bottle. It is the superior water bottle. With one button anyone can sip from a straw or dump water. With a natural locking mechanism to avoid the water bottle opening up in your backpack that doubles as a way to carry the water bottle, the Owala water bottle also has a removable silicone seal. If you want to take a break from math and start a 2+ minute tangent, ask Mr. Sindel about his Owala water bottle.
Mr. Sindel uses participation cards in his classes. If you are a freshman, you will recognize the back of the 2K cards.
All sophomores get a custom Hearthstone participation card
All juniors get a custom Magic the Gathering participation card
All seniors get a custom Pokemon participation card
Mr. Sindel loves the random and fun areas of math. Here he is with a lesson starting out about the weird pattern of light on the inside of a coffee mug that ends talking about a mathematical topic called envelopes.
