**Written by Laura Grimwade, Rockdale County UbD (Understanding by Design) Lesson Plan Math (Geometry, 6 th Grade) Stage 1 – Desired Results Established Goals: (M6G1) Students will further develop their understanding of plane figures. (M6P1) Using appropriate technology, students will solve problems that arise in mathematics and in other contexts. (M6P5) Students will create and use pictures, manipulatives, models, and symbols to organize mathematical ideas. Understandings: Students will understand that objects may or may not have line and/or rotational symmetry. scale drawings are related to real-world similar plane objects that are large or small. scale provides a mechanism by which we can solve problems related to large or small real-world objects. Essential Questions: Why is it important to understand symmetry? Why are plane figures important in the real world? How are scale drawings related to similar plane figures? How can you represent a large image in a smaller proportion? To what extent do professionals use scale to analyze real-world extremely large or microscopic objects?

Teacher Toolbox A Recipe For Success by Roger C. Henderson Boise State University Grade: Time Allotment: One 45-minute class period Subject Matter: Mathematics Overview: This is an interactive, media enhanced lesson that requires students to examine ratios and proportions. The primary goal is to develop connections between math and real-world situations. Through the use of video, students will explore a relevant application of ratios and proportions. Using the internet, students will apply this concept through guided practice and interactive feedback. Students will then make connections to other real-world examples by applying this knowledge to similar problems in other areas. This lesson incorporates mathematical skills, reading, and writing in an interdisciplinary format. Learning Objectives: Students will be able to: Apply equivalent ratios Apply scaling to ratios and proportions Apply ratios and proportions in real-life situations Standards: National Standards (From National Council of Teachers of Mathematics grades K-12) Idaho State Standards I: Numbers and Operations Understand numbers, ways of representing numbers, relationships among numbers, and number systems.

CAP Scrapbook T he CAP for Teachers program is designed not only to offer educators hands-on experience in archaeology but also to give participants creative ideas using archaeology which they can use to fulfill curriculum needs. The broad range of skills that professional archaeology requires makes it a rich field that teachers can harvest for activities and lessons directed toward a broad range of subject areas. P ast CAP for Teacher participants have reaped the benefits of applying archaeology in the classroom using it to enhance skills related to critical thinking, multiculturalism, writing, mathematics, art and other areas of science. Because of these successes, some of our CAP teachers have offered to share their ideas with others who might also serve to benefit from incorporating archaeology into the classroom. To view a sample, please select the link below. Sample Lessons designed by past teacher-participants in the CAP Program T he staff at the Community Archaeology Program have also developed lesson plans for incorporation into a range of classroom settings.

SCORE Mathematics Real World Mathematics One of the challenges facing mathematics teachers is convincing their students that there is a place for mathematics in the real world. The goal of this page is to collect examples of those applications. We encourage the submission of additional examples The (un)Truth About Statistics - a discussion of the statistics used in the media and how the formation of the questions can affect the survey results. 1993 Tampa Bay Oil Spill The PORTS-based hazardous spill trajectory modeling concept was (unfortunately) tested on August 10, 1993, when a collision occurred between two inbound fuel barges and an outbound phosphate freighter. Using a simple vector analysis routine and the PORTS wind and current data, a trajectory for the spill was calculated using wind direction as a cardinal direction, wind speed in knots, current direction in degrees true, and current speed in meters per second. At each hour, speed and direction for the oil movement were computed based on these data using a generic Minerals Management Service algorithm.
