As usual we have loads of appropriate resources to help parents, teachers and pupils in these difficult times. There is also a lot going on that we want to tell you about. For instance, tomorrow is\u00a0<strong>International Women in Mathematics Day<\/strong>.<br>\n<br>\nIt is also the 200<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0birthday of <strong>Florence Nightingale<\/strong> and we have some interesting reading about how this famous woman used statistics to help change how hospitals are run. Her work promoting hygiene and medical statistics is echoed every day in our news during the Covid pandemic.<br>\n<br>\nThe 12<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0May is also the 200<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0anniversary of\u00a0<strong>John Casey.\u00a0<\/strong><br>\n<strong>Casey<\/strong> was a very important mathematician and textbook author from Limerick in the 19<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0Century. So 12 May is a red letter day for us, but the 13 is UK\u2019s\u00a0<strong>National Numeracy Day<\/strong>\u00a0and there are lots of events online that we report on below.<br>\n<br>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-file-id=\"1743826\" height=\"173\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/1e4c696c230483f91e7da02d5\/images\/2d37096e-431f-41d5-910e-4a24badbcc9a.jpg\" style=\"border: 0px;width: 400px;height: 173px;margin: 0px;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" width=\"400\"><br>\nNext week we will be focussing on Maths in Nature theme as it is the annual\u00a0<strong>Bealtaine Living Earth Festival<\/strong>. Organised by Calmast (who bring you Maths Week) at Waterford Institute of Technology it is going online this year from 16 \u2013 24 May and incorporates International Day for Biological Diversity on 22 May with online events for all to join. So next week you can appreciate Nature on your Doorstep and learn about connections between maths and nature.

But her legacy is even greater.\u00a0 We know the crucial importance of good hygiene and\u00a0the importance of proper data in fighting the spread of the virus.\u00a0 These are the very areas that Nightingale also pioneered and deserves to be remembered for.

He was of humble origins (reputedly\u00a0and became a national school teacher. He became interested in mathematics and corresponded with some leading mathematicians who persuaded him to enter Trinity College Dublin aged 38. He went on to become the most accomplished mathematician of the Catholic University of Ireland (now University College Dublin). He was one of the founders of the modern geometry of angles and circles and he devised a theorem generalising Ptolemy\u2019s theorem, but his influence was far wider through his internationally popular textbooks on geometry. He married Catherine Ryan in 1847 and had four children, two boys and two girls. He was a lifelong Irish Speaker.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin: 10px 0;padding: 0;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #757575;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\">Read more about\u00a0Casey\u00a0in the latest That\u2019s Maths column from Peter Lynch in the Irish Times\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/news\/science\/in-tribute-to-john-casey-founder-of-modern-geometry-1.4240914\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #007C89;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\">https:\/\/www.irishtimes.com\/news\/science\/in-tribute-to-john-casey-founder-of-modern-geometry-1.4240914<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin: 10px 0;padding: 0;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #757575;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\">Colm Mulcahy who curates the Annals of Irish Mathematics is preparing a special May Maths Ireland Blog with new information on\u00a0John\u00a0Casey\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mathsireland.ie\/blog\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #007C89;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\">http:\/\/www.mathsireland.ie\/blog<\/a><\/p>\n\n                        <\/td>\n                    <\/tr>\n                <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n                \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n            <\/td>\n        <\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" class=\"mcnDividerBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;table-layout: fixed !important;\">\n    <tbody class=\"mcnDividerBlockOuter\">\n        <tr>\n            <td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\" style=\"min-width: 100%;padding: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\">\n                <table class=\"mcnDividerContent\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-top: 2px solid #EAEAEA;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\">\n                    <tbody><tr>\n                        <td style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\">\n                            <span><\/span>\n                        <\/td>\n                    <\/tr>\n                <\/tbody><\/table>\n<!--            \n                <td class=\"mcnDividerBlockInner\" style=\"padding: 18px;\">\n                <hr class=\"mcnDividerContent\" style=\"border-bottom-color:none;
