Integrating Google Earth in mathematics
The goal of the Place Value Game is to create the largest possible number from the digits the computer gives you. Unfortunately, the computer will give you each digit one at a time and you won't know what the next number will be. You are not allowed to rearrange any of the digits you have already placed, so think carefully before you lock a number in place! Good luck!
interesting online...play with unit cubes
This is a collection of movie clips in which Mathematics appears. I'm collecting DVDs and VHS tapes of such movies. This is a working document to be extended over time.

Mathematics 24x7 - There is no escape...believe it or not. Mathematics is everywhere.
Just talking about Math... What do you say?
Mathematics has a reading protocol all its own, and just as we learn to read literature, we should learn to read mathematics. Students need to learn how to read mathematics, in the same way they learn how to read a novel or a poem, listen to music, or view a painting.

Choose a cross section, then click on the points that lie on the edges of the cube to try and create the cross section. press Create to see what cross section you made, and if you want, you can rotate the cube to take a look at it. It will give you feed
You Do The Math: Explaining Basic Concepts Behind Math Problems Improves Children's Learning
New research from Vanderbilt University has found students benefit more from being taught the concepts behind math problems rather than the exact procedures to solve the problems. The findings offer teachers new insights on how best to shape math instruction to have the greatest impact on student learning.
- It would be interesting to build a set a links to similar research results as this and discuss the implications this has for what we do as math teachers in our classrooms. - By Darren Kuropatwa

Can we be less prescriptive in our classrooms – and more successful with our students?
"This model for learning mathematics may be quite different from what teachers experienced themselves in the past where classrooms were less interactive, filled with little activity and conversation. Teachers were generally in control, directing all aspects of what was to be learned; different points of view and approaches seldom brought to the surface new ideas and insights and a high degree of redundancy meant that everybody learned the exact same thing at the exact same time.
