Featured Topic:   Earth Day Math Activities

In a time when environmental activists are urging every American to make small changes, these activities focus on mathematical investigations of earth-friendly practices, including energy usage and recycling. The lessons provide real data and encourage students to follow the data trail through time in hopes that they will be prompted to take action.
