Math Lab "Dangers of Wexting While Walking"fractions, decimals, percents"
I am very pleased and excited to share my math lab on Texting While Walking. * Teachers will surely find that the lab is useful in reinforcing lessons on fractions, ratios, percents, and decimals, while at the same time, students learn safety in texting habits. *. As the lesson begins, students are presented with statistical information regarding the increase of accidental deaths and injuries from texting while walking over recent years. *. Students acquire a statistical impress

Moving Cities
This activity helps student determine the rate at which continental drift is causing cities to move toward or away from each other. Using current and past longitude and latitude data, students calculate the rate of increase or decrease in distance between large global cities. This data can then be used to predict the future movement of the cities based on historic trends.

Math Lab: Investigating Second-hand Smoke Using Inequality Symbols
This lab is great to use as reinforcement to newly learned lessons, or it can be used as a semester review! Honestly, this is one of my favorites! * Working with a partner, students use balloons to measure the volume of a single breath of air and apply their calculations to determine (mathematically) how much second-hand smoke they breathe when exposed! * In the process of making their discovery, students use the circumference formula in a variety of forms in order to find a radius, and ultimat
