Goliath Math
This is a fun math project for first through fourth grades. Everything you need is included in this booklet. The project is based on the story of David and Goliath, one of the most popular stories in the Bible, recorded in the 17th chapter of the book of First Samuel. Even people who know very little about the Bible, are familiar with this story. The key element in the story is how a small shepherd boy who trusts God is able to defeat a huge giant that everyone else is afraid of.

Teaching style
Teaching math can be an adventure; it's a process of leading students to discover ways to quantify, calculate, measure, and understand. My method is to incorporate fun math projects into the middle school curriculum - projects that are based on adventure themes. They stimulate curiosity and keep the students engaged.
