Detailed Information
In today's era of interdisciplinary studies,
this new title created specifically for math
teachers shows how mathematics concepts
and knowledge can be used to develop
economic and personal financial understandings.
Mathematics teachers need not
have a background in economics in order
to implement the curriculum. Our
nationwide network can be called upon
to provide support with any questions
that may arise. The 15 featured lessons
are useful across a variety of mathematics
courses, including:
- Pre-Algebra
- Algebra I and II
- Pre-Calculus
- Calculus
- Data/Analysis Probability
- Geometry
Each of the 15 lessons is correlated to the
National Standards for Mathematics and
includes:
- Numbers and Operations
- Algebra
- Geometry
- Measurement
- Data Analysis and Probability
- Problem Solving
- Reasoning and Proof
- Communications
- Connections
- Representations
Each lesson includes student activities,
overhead transparencies, and background
information on the economic content and
how it relates to mathematics. Extension
activities where students can apply their
mathematics and economics knowledge to
real world situations are provided.
