Math Activities

After teaching the Essential Math class for many years, I decided to incorporate a variety of teaching strategies and activities that I felt would benefit my Grade 10 Applied Math Class. Having a larger number of students in the class as opposed to the small class size and Educational Assistant support in the essential class, I knew the activities that were being introduced would be challenging. My goal was to review the unit of Rates and Ratios through a variety of hands on activities. Some examples include: Comic Strip Grid Art, Wooden Dinosaur Model Building, Play doe Recipe, and a Treasure Map Creation. While completing the assignments, I will be evaluating the overall effectiveness of the activity, interest level of the students, and connection to the curriculum.
