Success in math doesn't came easily for all children.  Some time ago I
discovered the simple secret to success in math - FUN. When children
enjoy math and have fun with math - they learn. It really is that
simple.
Experts now agree that children learn far more readily when they are
having fun. So what is the simplest way to have fun with math?
Several years ago I started playing math games in my classroom and I
soon  realized that playing games is the best way to get kids motivated
and enthusiastic about math. Over the years I have collected many, many
math games that I know kids love to play. Finally I have put them
together in the one collection.

I found this piece of information on Internet. It is wonderful.

=============================================================
Dear Friends,

Today I am going to describe divisibility of a number by 13. In
schools and coaching institutes students are taught divisibility of a
number by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 11. I hope you are all aware of this.
A number will be divisible by 2, if it is an even number.A number will
be divisible by 3, if sum of the digits is divisible by 3 and so on
and so fourth... But what about 7, 13, 17, 19 and other odd numbers?
Our contemporary mathematics is silent on this. In Vedic Mathematics
we have solutions for all these (surprised?)
Let me introduce 13. [Operator of 13 is 4 How?** ]
Find whether 1001 is divisible by 13?
By seeing it is difficult to say.
Do the following operations:
1001= 100+1(last digit)*4(operator)= 104= 10+ 4 (last
digit)*4(operator)=26
Since 26 is divisible by 13 therefore, 1001 is divisible by 13.
What have we done here?
We seperated the last digit of the number, multiplied it by the
operator and added the result to the rest. This we did until we found
a managable number. Go ahead and test this!

All,

Several of you have requested the AP Calc PowerPoints.
I will pull all my files together next week while on

Bailey,
   Hang on for a couple days, we may not have to worry about storage
any more.  There is more information to follow...

Hey everybody...
   The guy who runs the original site (JB) is putting together a new
site that might allow us do have a this kind of group, but without
storage restrictions.  (You rock Bledsoe.)  Check out his new site!

http://www.teacherpowerpoints.net/index.html

I haven't gotten into it yet, (not sure how to activate the account)
but it sounds good.  So if you have any new posts, try to do it on the
new site.

David and Thomas,
I would like to have the ap calc slides and the Promise file.
Could you send them to me at school?
dprice@...
or tell me where I can download them from

I have to contact publishers asking for examination copies of books.

Hi,
I thought some people in the math group may be interested.  I have
started a mathematics Podcast in which I discuss the mathematics
behind real world situations.  You can listen on your camputer or mp3
player.  Check it out at www.mathgrad.com
Thanks
Chris

These sound great.  Thanks so much.  I'm in my first year teaching and these
files have really helped.  Once I get my feet on the ground, I'll try to
contribute.
Ann

I'm gonna pull off some files and post a couple new ones.  But they're
not all new.  Something I have to do for a class I was (am) taking.
If you are interested, the new files will be

small 1-3 day projects for

Trigonometry
Polar coordinates
functions x 2

each has powerpoint lessons and some level of activity for students to
work:  worksheets, tests, simple story problem projects (short)
They should be up by the end of the week.

By the way there are a couple more files posted online at my class
website:
http://www.geocities.com/tbolan346/

OK, here's what I'm doing with old files.  I lumped a bunch of them
together in a *.zip file, and am posting that.  It takes up only about
half the memory, but may be a big pain to download.  I guess this is
only a temporary solution, but it should be good for a while anyway.
