Proving theorems

It was school holidays last week while I was in Utah and Ben had to juggle looking after the kids with work. One day he took them into the department and tookย this photo of Elizabeth drawing on the blackboard. It’s so great. I love how she’s this tiny head at the bottom and she’s drawing Minecraft charactersย alongside maths. I think Daniel drew the Creeper.

        And I thought you were the photographer in the family. It seems Ben is also talented.

        Yeah, Ben did well with that photo. He used a very cheap smart phone too. A Kazam.

    When I first looked at the picture, I felt like Elizabeth solved all those equations. Great pic.

      Elizabeth is pretty good at maths but not that good. Not yet anyway ๐Ÿ™‚

    Cute – that oval with the three beams going into it – is that part of the theorems or is it Minecraft?

      No, that’s maths. I’m not sure what it’s not Minecraft.

        I don’t even know what all those symbols mean. The round thing with a cross looks like a hot cross bun. I bet if I had taken that branch of maths, I would have got distracted by that. It was very easy to distract me away from maths in those days.
