My #math Mastodon peeps. These days school doesn't emphasize teaching logic and proofs, like they did when I took plane geometry which was really about proof and not really about triangles and such.

Does anyone have suggestions for modern resources I could assign my kids to do beginning proofs? One kid is studying calculus in 7th grade the other is in more normal speed, studying basic algebra. I'd just like to give them maybe a problem a week to prove something but in a thoughtful way.
