This site contains all of the information needed for teachers to use the 16 classroom activities of SkyMath, including the module itself. The SkyMath Module, "Using the Science and Language of Patterns to Explore Temperature," calls for the development of several mathematical concepts using a single central concept from weather --- temperature. The SkyMath curriculum uses real-time weather data, involves classrooms in hands-on mathematics, elicits higher-level thinking, engages students in purposeful projects, and calls for reflection and communication.

This section of the Cut-the-Knot site offers several neat interactive probability illustrations, along with descriptions of several classic probability problems, each of which illustrates a different aspect of probability. These are great, "Why is it that...?" discussion starters, and well worth a look.

In the Classroom

Open the probability problems on the interactive whiteboard or projector, having students attempt to work on the problems in cooperative learning groups. This is a great way to review a unit on probability, as are the sections at the top entitled "What is probability?" Share the site on the class wiki or web page to allow students to access it in and out of the classroom for review.

This site chronicles a national project to get students involved in math using the world around them. School teams participate in a field trip to answer one or more mathematical puzzles or questions. The site has enough examples that you could create your own "trail," or you can learn more about the national project. Neat idea.

This fabulous collection of interactives and tools supports math and science concepts across grades 3-12. There are also lessons to accompany the activities and a dictionary of math terms. Sort by "audience" to narrow the listings by level: 3-5, 6-8, or 9-12. Version 3.0, released in 2010, provides better searching by activity type and curriculum term. Click at the bottom of the screen for an "interactivate Guide" to explain the various ways you can search, or simply click on Learner Activities to browse and see the breadth of offerings in areas such as Number and Operations, Geometry, Algebra, Probability, Statistics, Modeling, Discrete, and more.

In the Classroom

Mark this one in your teacher favorites, then return to select activities in support of math or science units. Many curriculum topics have multiple offerings, so let students choose from among three to five activities for homework, in-class practice, or student- demonstrated skills on an interactive whiteboard or projector. Rotate different student groups to run the demonstrations and explanations of the interactives or have them write explanations of them on a class wiki for others to use for review and practice.

This site offers a large collection of logic problems, conundrums, and java-based math puzzles and simulations. They range from fairly simple to quite difficult. There are lots of illustrations of mathematical concepts here, as well as mind-stretchers for students who need an additional challenge.

In the Classroom

Use this site for extra credit on quizzes or for daily brain busters at the start of every class. Open a problem on the interactive whiteboard or projector and challenge students to compete to solve the problem first. Some of the problems are fairly tricky so be sure to give enough time for students to complete it!

Here's a site for the serious math students from the publishers of Mathematica math software. The content on the site is completely separate from any product information. It includes examples and discussion of more than a dozen mathematics concepts from algebra through calculus, number theory, and even "recreational math." We particularly like the conciseness of the explanations. Students who need another look at a concept will almost certainly find something useful here. This site is a great reference tool or study aid.

In the Classroom

Put a link to this site on your webpage for students and parents to access when needing an explanation for any math concept. Because this is a text heavy site, sure to demonstrate the site in class with your projector. Ask for student volunteers to give concepts they would like more help with, and demonstrate that section of the site to the students.

This section of Swarthmore College's extensive math site offer suggestions for science fair projects which have a focus on mathematics. There are sample projects, collections of ideas, and links to science fair sites from other schools. If your students are "stuck," this site should get them moving.

In the Classroom

Post this site on the class web page, to allow students to access it both in and out of the classroom. The site has a ton of ideas on project ideas for math fairs, and students should be encouraged to look at it before making a decision on their own project. Some of the ideas come in spanish versions, which would make it easier to comprehend for ESL students!

In the Classroom

Use this site over the interactive whiteboard to work and solve on equations as a class. Have students attempt to solve the problems on a whiteboard before allowing them to use the site to check their work. This will be a more inclusive way to solve problems as a class over the calculator that only one can see. A very useful resource for the advanced math classroom!

This archive contains the biographies of more than 3,000 mathematicians. They are accessible from either an alphabetical or chronological biographical index. Biographies are suitable for a computer-based presentation.

In the Classroom

Use the "Mathematician of the day" section on the interactive whiteboard or projector as a brain-warmer at the beginning of class. Highlighting important mathematicians can help connect the ideas to people, making the subject more tangible. What's great about the mathematicians mentioned is that there are links explaining who they are and their significance in the math world. Try testing students on identifying the scholars before exploring the biographies.
