And it all started with a brainteaser about a needle. It’s a peculiar truth of mathematics that the easier a problem looks on paper, the harder it often turns out to be. Take Fermat’s Last ...

Patterns were mostly left out of the common-core math standards in the early grades (kindergarten and 1st grade) due to a lack of evidence that they helped children understand later math concepts.
