Rational numbers are like midrashim

I enjoyed reading Ilana Kurshan's memoir "If All the Seas Were Ink."

I especially appreciated how she compares midrash to rational numbers. Join the discussion here.

What's this blog about?

I'm writing these posts for teachers, parents and family educators interested in lessons that harmonize math and Judaics.

My basic commitments include:

- Road tested: If I post it, I've done it - or I tell you if I haven't.

- Instructions on how you can do this yourself: Including links to handouts, if applicable.

- Lead time: A post doesn't help anyone if it's released 12 hours before Chag. Except in the case of the fall chagim, which are too close together, posts will generally be released 2 weeks before a parsha or Chag to allow teacher planning time (and no fewer than 4 days in advance.)
