The discussion centers on the search for "New Math" materials used in the 1960s, particularly for elementary students. The original poster expresses interest in these resources due to their inclusion of Discrete Math concepts. A responder acknowledges the request but questions the motivation behind it, indicating a willingness to help find materials if necessary. The focus remains on locating teaching materials that effectively convey Discrete Math to young children.
