ACCTM to hold lunch meeting
The spring meeting of ACCTM has been scheduled for lunch at Ryan’s Steakhouse on March 27 at 1:00 pm. The plan is to have Fran Bush from Booklovers’ Bookstore give a talk on books that can be used in the mathematics classroom. For example, there is a children’s book called, “The King’s Chessboard” by David Birch which helps students understand more about what exponential growth really means.
