Geometry

This is a picture I really love. Don't know why. What I see now is the amount of Geometry ancient architects knew. Here's one for your Geogebra if you want to study it. I should be doing the activities in my LearningLab, but I couldn't do this morning what I was required: a cardgame for my pupils. So, nothing to think about. It will have to wait until tomorrow.
Sunny cold evening here. anyway, I'm at home. What about you?

Thank you, it's great- every detail has something different. I particularly like the matching between the upper arches and the ones at the middle level, a sort of reverse symmetry.
Believe it or not, I downloaded the Geogebra book, read every letter in it and replicated every single example, and made some of my own applications. I'm totally in love with it. I wish I could use it in every class, which of course is a stupid and unrealistic idea. I have worked in this Learninglab more than in all the others together. Now, I should start reading for my study visit presentation, but I already feel rather tired.
It was sunny here too, but it's muddy. Snow is melting and snowdrops are out near my block. :)

PS: where is it from? I have some idea, but I might be wrong.

It is san Vicente Church, the one opposite the restaurant where we were having the project goodbye lunch, before your former colleagues and Carole and anne left, the lunch Iza and Ilona missed. Remember?
I'm also trying to work for my visit presentation. I'm working with two computers at the same time. Crazy, isn't it?

So, my guess was right, this time!
Sure I remember, it was a touching moment.
Jogging between two computers is a new kind of workout? :)

There you are!in fact, I could say I'm keeping fit.

Mens sana...
I'm working and drinking beer. Can you remind me what was I supposed to work on? It's said beer gives you amnesia and other things I can't remember. :)
I'll leave you to your work(out).

As much as I hate to admit to it, I'm beginning to believe we are born wicked. It would be impossible to acquire all that cruelty in such a short time.

I'm talking about some of my 11 years old students.
