About the store

I have been teaching secondary math for over ten years and I am beginning to see mathematics everywhere these days. I specialize in all levels of Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Statistics. I am learning that Mathematics is the language of the universe and Algebra is the grammar of that language. I see it everywhere and hope I can create some useful lessons to help students see things my way as well.

In this basketball themed, super fun, activity students will shoot baskets and calculate the average percentage made from certain positions on the court. Students will use regression analysis to model the percentage shot as a function of the position on the court. Students will test how accurate the model is and give possible reasons why the model may be valid or invalid.
