Abstract
Recently, in a graduate course that I was taking at the University of Buffalo, we were discussing and presenting ways to implement the NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (1989). One of the suggestions made to encourage communication in mathematics was to have students write about mathematics. Using journals, which I have done with my students, was discussed. However, something I had not tried was also suggested, which was to ask students either to write a short story or joke or to create a cartoon about some aspect of mathematics.
