Mathalicious

Since we started using our blogs in class, I have been finding many different blogs and websites that may be useful to the math content. I have found this blog,Math in the Middle that has many different mathematical ideas that can be shared amongst teachers. There are a number of links, videos, pictures, etc. that this teacher has shared on her blog. They also included other blogs that they use and have found over the years. I clicked on a couple of her links and found another cite that would be useful to many teachers. I attended the Green Lake Math conference last Spring and watched a presentation about a new way to teach math. I actually forgot that I have seen this guy present about this topic and new phenomenon called Mathalicious. Watching and experiencing this new math first hand really made me want to try out some of the lessons. The real world applications and applying them to actual real life problems was very impressive.

  1. Mr. F - I can see how you have thought about literacy and math. While it is not going to be you reading and writing with texts every day, there is a lot of literacy in math as you have seen!
