Teacher/mother Wendy Petti has created a wonderfully engaging and visually 
striking site that brings mathematics to life through math-related art, 
crafts, games, facts, and more. Math Cats will probably appeal most to 
elementary and middle school students, though some of its offerings will 
intrigue people of any age. "Older Cats" (parents and teachers) will find a 
useful idea bank of math activities and resources, as well as a newsletter. 
Though Math Cats is not designed specifically for girls, many girls are 
among its most enthusiastic audience.
