Activities and Tools

• Pattern Blocks

  Students use pattern blocks to establish the relationship among fractions.

• Fractal Geometry - Elementary and Middle School

  Young students can learn much about this exciting new mathemtics if it is told in language they can understand

• Fractal Geometry - High School and College

  Exploring its simplicity, beauty, and mathematics...

• Population Growth and Balance

  The importance of both mathematical and computer models in the study of population growth will be described and analyzed to gain a good understanding of the tools used by Population Ecologists,

• Java-enhanced Power Cards

  Card No. 1 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31

  I've added a Java applet written by Jacobo Bulaevsky to this mathemagic trick. Learn Binary arithmetic.

• Fun and Sun Rent-a-Car

  This lesson uses graphs and tables to solve a real world problem.

• Jacobo's Preview of Coming Attractions

  Remember you saw them first HERE, ladies and gentlmen. New, yet-to-be published.

Cynthia's Wish List
• Visualizing an Infinite Series

  It's fractions adding, and infinity all rolled into one. But it needs an applet!

• Hidden Irrationals

  What's the rule? Students will find line segments that they can and cannot draw of various irrational lengths, and then find the rule that allows them to draw or not draw. The page should be printed and the segments shaded in. But I ask you, wouldn't it be GREAT if they could be done online?

• Rectangular Pattern Challenges

  They're bright. They're colorful. They're fun. They're Algebra. They're important skills (patterns, functions) and they're begging for a java applet.
