In this lesson, students consider the meanings of Christmas by reading an op-ed and reflect on the meanings of the Christmas holiday ?When are we ever going to USE this MATH?? How many times have you heard this question? Students delight in challenging the teacher for reasons or justifications of the material taught. What better way to answer this question than to allow students to research career fields of their own interest and make the math connection! How can we determine the value of the timber in a forest? How can we measure a pine tree, or for that matter, any item that is longer, taller, broader, or deeper than our measuring tools? |
