Steps

  1. First, students search for twin primes: prime numbers with a difference of two.
  2. Then, they look for cousin primes: prime numbers with a difference of four.
  3. Finally, they look for prime quintuplets: five primes in which the difference between the largest and smallest is 12.

Teachers love Byrdseed.TV!

"Love, love, love Byrdseed TV... I used many ideas and lessons this year. The kids loved the lessons and were engaged!"  ~  Tiffany in California

"I just subscribed to Byrdseed.TV and am loving it -- though it is kind of scary addictive in a binge-watching kind of way (that, by the way, is a compliment)."  ~  Elizabeth from Florida

"I absolutely LOVE all of the ideas on your site. I am using Byrdseed TV to differentiate activities for my clustered students to work on when the rest of the class is doing something they’ve already mastered."  ~  Wendy in Washington
