How Sidewalk Math Cultivates a Playful, Curious Attitude Towards Math: https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/55961/how-sidewalk-math-cultivates-a-playful-curious-attitude-towards-math
I like these ideas for both now during the COVID-9 pandemic and afterwards in school. I have found, like this teacher, that adults stop to read puzzles or interesting daily information. I used to put an event from history on a board in my classroom from those listed on "Topics by Month" on this website. It turned out teachers were the first to come read the message which then encouraged students and other adults to read it also. I liked the modeling involvedso that people came to think, learn, and discuss just because they want to - not part of an assignment.
