In 2017, 2018 and 2020, I was an instructor for Emory Math Circle (an enrichment program for middle and high school students interested in mathematics) Middle School section(s).
As an instructor, I planned and executed lessons designed to teach students with diverse mathematical backgrounds "how to think both logically and creatively while sparking and developing in them a passion for mathematics." During my time at Emory Math Circle, I wrote several lesson plans and created handouts for various activities. Some of these handouts are linked below:
Calendar Blocks: Warm-up, Main Activity.
Cubing Cubes: Main Activity.
Count to 10: Main Activity.
Giants and Gnomes: Main Activity.
Infinite Primes: Main Activity.
Polyominoes: Warm-up.
Stick-y Squares: Main Activity.
The Subtraction Game: Warm-up.
(Note: Each session included both a warm-up activity and a main activity. The handouts linked here are just a sample of the ones I created and used. Please feel free to email me at maryam.khaqan@utoronto.ca if there's a particular one you're interested in learning more about.)
