Some of the things we just forget to notice... I guess they didn't have "whole" numbers in Roman Times.

There is a purpose for math beyond the classroom. This purpose rarely gets taught to students, and to many students, the purpose of math is to learn a skill that leads to a grade on a report card. It shouldn't be this way! You should be able to enjoy what you're doing.

Also, there are 13 letters in both “eleven plus two” and “twelve plus one”.

There is real-life application of almost every form of mathematics. It does not mean that every student will use every piece of mathematics that they learn, but it does mean we can show them how we can use that bit of mathematics to understand and explain something around us.
