“Mathematics is lively and exciting; it is a field more akin to art and poetry than many people think,” say the Mega Math authors at Los Alamos National Laboratory. They go on to provide activities and explanations for some high-level mathematical concepts. What is infinity plus one? Why does a map never need to contain more than four colors?

Use the Harcourt Multimedia Math Glossary to help elementary and middle school students visualize challenging math ideas. Illustrations and animations of concepts such as sums, ordinal numbers, and telling time are available for young students, while items such as alternate interior angles and congruency are depicted for older students. Descriptions are categorized by grade level.

Produced by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, Figure This! enhances math learning outside the classroom with fun math challenges for families. Problem sets convey to middle-school students how much math matters in daily life.

 

 

 

 

 

http://www.illuminations.nctm.org

 

 

This National Council of Teachers of Mathematics site “illuminates” its newly revised math principles and standards through Web-based multimedia activities, video vignettes of teaching and learning, lesson plans, and a rich network of links. Here a 2d-grader can learn about distance and angles as he figures out how to map a turtle’s path to a pond, or a high schooler can test her conjectures about why crows usually drop whelks from a certain height to break them open for food.
