Typically, by the time they reach upper middle school to high school, many of them have already determined that they are no good at math and that the only mathematics they'll ever need their calculator can do for them. You and I both know, that those assumptions are completely false. Anyone can do math if they put enough effort into it and have a good teacher (the fact that you are taking the time to find new and interesting ways to teach mathametics to your students tells me that you are one of these teachers). And, as far as calculators go, they can't do it all (although they can do quite a bit nowadays). Besides, calculators only do what their user tells them to do. If your students don't have a mastery of the operations their calculator is to perform, how will they know they're using the right ones? Moreover, even if they're using the correct operations, how will your students know they are using them correctly and in the correct sequence?

Knopf, New York, NY, 1993) Lesson Developed by Patricia King Robeson Literature Annotation : This story is based on a true, little-known chapter in African American history. As a seamstress in the Big House, Clara knows she's better off than the slaves who work the fields. But slavery has separated Clara from her mother, and she can never be happy without her. Clara dreams that they will be reunited one day and run away together - north to freedom. Then Clara hears two slaves talking about how they could find the Underground Railroad if only they had a map. In a flash of inspiration, she sees how to use the cloth in her scrap bag to sew a map of the land - a freedom quilt - that no master will ever suspect is a map to freedom. Grade Level Duration : 3 to 4 class periods; this lesson could be used to introduce other lessons or discussions on migration and the different reasons people have for moving.

MATH ANGLE PROPERTIES OF SCALENE TRIANGLES GRADES: 4-9 MATERIALS: sheets of blank paper. protractors straight edge of some kind METHOD: Draw ten different triangles. Label each vertex of the triangle using numbers one, two, three. Put the numbers at the vertex of each angle, outside the triangle. Using your protractor, measure all angles of each triangle. Record the measurements of each angle inside the triangle. Complete the following chart: Triangle, Angle 1, Angle 2, Angle 3, Sum of the three angles Record any patterns that you find regarding the angles of a triangle. This lesson can be varied to determine the properties of isoceles, and equilateral triangles as well. This lesson creates ownership for the student, ensuring that they will never Forget these properties. submitted by BRYAN BAIRD CHAMPLAIN DISCOVERY PUBLIC SCHOOL PEMBROKE, ONTARIO, CANADA bryanbaird@hotmail.com THE MATHEMATICS BEHIND MAZES GRADES: 7-11 The Mathematics Behind Mazes examines Euler's Formula (Points + Regions = Lines + Parts), and provides the students with a chance to design and construct a model of a maze, to practice equations and to obtain a better understanding of coordinate planes.
