You might also want to consider SageMathCell, which has fewer buttons, and can look less intimidating at times. For example,
http://sagecell.sagemath.org/?z=eJxLV7BVSMlPSU1OzEhNKcrP09Dk5eLlStcrzsgv19AEAJBZCOs=&lang=sage A fun example, for teaching math to younger folks, is to play with patterns. A super-easy pattern is 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + ... + whatever = (whatever+1)^2 / 4 ...but that super-easy pattern leads to the Fermat factorization algorithm. One of my favorites was 1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + 4^3 + 5^3 + ... + (whatever)^3 = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + whatever)^2 The Sage sum command is very useful for these. Enjoy! ---Greg p.s. The use of "whatever" is strategic. Many young people associate "x" with homework, math tests, stress, and so forth, which is a shame.
