The Mathematics Calendar 2016

We got this for my sister in law who is a math professor. She is very difficult to buy for. I found this for fun and she absolutely LOVED it !!!! She started working the math problems immediately (there is a math problem for each day). She is excited to have a fun task to do to make sure the answer is correct (we think that the correct answer is the date) and she is thinking that she may use some of them for her college students!!Best gift ever for a high level math person!!!!

I love this calendar! It is posted outside my office door (I am a physics professor at a university) and I get lots of positive comments about how fun it is to work out some the interesting answers. I look forward to the new calendar coming out every year!

When you sit down in the morning with your Starbucks Double Mocha, set a few minutes aside to solve each day's little brain stimulating equation. It's refreshing, eye opening, worth every brain exercise. And don't be frustrated if you don't know how to solve it. Now you have something to do for the rest of the day.... Research! Your Boss will understand.

She is a mathematician, a writer, a marketing expert, and a funster - all wrapped up into one. Thank you, Theoni!

Kids love figuring these mathematical puzzles even tho the answers are obvious (the date). Good review of high school math. Thumbs up!

Fun!

My husband continues to love this calendar year after year -- and completes ALL the math problems!

Great mental warm-up before setting off for the salt-mines.

An amazing amount of detail in a well-prepared product with a question for every day of the year and an interesting topic for each month. I have enjoyed these calendars for the last few years and they provide good material for puzzles in the classroom across a range of abilities. In some cases the US measurements and contexts can cause problems and might need explaining to students.

I liked the concept of this but the calendar has no space to write anything - I bought it for my son to plan his GCSE revision with but the strange design makes that impossible

An excellent idea with fun for every day.

Not my first. As a retired math professor, I still love solving problems.
