An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the concept of coplanar objects - those that lie in the same plane. The applet presents two planes. In one plane there are two rectangles that can be dragged around and which lie in the same plane always. The other is a rectangle that can be dragged but always lies in a plane orthogonal to the first. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.

An interactive applet and associated web page that provide step-by-step instructions on how to copy a line segment using only a compass and straightedge. The animation can be run either continuously like a video, or single stepped to allow classroom discussion and thought between steps. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

An interactive applet and associated web page that provide step-by-step instructions on how to divide a line segment into any number of equal parts, using only a compass and straightedge. The applet starts with a given line segment and ends with that segment divided into n parts. In the applet n=5, but the construction works for any n. The animation can be run either continuously like a video, or single stepped to allow classroom discussion and thought between steps. The text on the page has printable step-by-step instructions. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

An interactive applet and associated web page that provide step-by-step instructions on how to copy a given triangle using only a compass and straightedge. The animation can be run either continuously like a video, or single stepped to allow classroom discussion and thought between steps.

Today we’re going to talk about data relationships and what we can learn from them. We’ll focus on correlation, which is a measure of how two variables move together, and we’ll also introduce some useful statistical terms you’ve probably heard of like regression coefficient, correlation coefficient (r), and r^2. But first, we’ll need to introduce a useful way to represent bivariate continuous data - the scatter plot. The scatter plot has been called “the most useful invention in the history of statistical graphics” but that doesn’t necessarily mean it can tell us everything. Just because two data sets move together doesn’t necessarily mean one CAUSES the other. This gives us one of the most important tenets of statistics: correlation does not imply causation.

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the corresponding angles that are formed where a transversal crosses two lines. The applets cycles through the four possible pairs of angles when in animation mode. By dragging the three lines, it can be seen that the angle pairs are congruent only when the lines are parallel. When not in animated mode, there is a button that cycles through each the four pairs of angles. The text on the page discusses the properties of the pairs of corresponding angles both in the parallel and non-parallel cases. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

You can find statistics in every day life - this example explains how to calculate the chance of a member of a committee is receiving a bribe. This resource is from PUMAS - Practical Uses of Math and Science - a collection of brief examples created by scientists and engineers showing how math and science topics taught in K-12 classes have real world applications.

Counting Collections is an important mathematical routine that students or families can do with very little guidance at home. Teachers could make kits with available resources for use at home, or send suggestions for commonly found objects that families could use for counting practice at home.
Counting Collections are just as described; they are collections of items that students count. Depending on your students, you will need several different kits. Kits hold several different collections of items.

Students who work on this task will benefit in seeing that given a quantity, there is often more than one way to represent it, which is a precursor to understanding the concept of equivalent expressions.

This task gives students another way to practice counting and gain fluency with connecting a written number with the act of counting. This task should be introduced by the teacher and would then be a good independent center.
The most engaging way to practice counting with students is to have …
The most engaging way to practice counting with students is to have them count meaningful things in their lives. Since five-year-olds are very focused on themselves this is easily done by allowing them to count themselves, their friends and objects within the classroom that relate to their daily lives.
