It's so important, especially in upper level maths, that students understand how things are used in the real world. Thanks!
Great resource for modeling with polynomials. Went through some as examples with my students and had them practice with the other problems.
This is a good resource for kids who need extra review.
Giving my students applications questions in preparation for their open-ended State testing is so important - this was a great activity
I used this activity as part of a review. Students enjoyed the activity.
