Sometimes when people talk about STEM, the "M" gets mixed into the science, technology, and engineering areas... but there are so many ways to celebrate the beauty of Mathematics! Check out resources on the MA STEM Week site too, because we know STEM Week is "...a statewide effort to boost the interest, awareness and ability for all learners to envision themselves in STEM education and employment opportunities, and compliment the formal instruction happening in the Commonwealth beyond STEM week."
Did you know there is a museum in NY dedicated to mathematics? Check out their website: https://momath.org/ !
