In the Summer, I offer a hands-on workshop on Recreational Mathematics for the Classroom (EDW 526).
The workshop is intended for teachers of Grades 1-12.
Participants will work in small groups to prepare Recreational Math Units suitable to their grade level. They would then present the units to the class of workshop participants. Participants will be given necessary guidance to prepare the Units. Each participant will also make one individual presentation on a recreational math topic of his/her choice.
Topics are drawn from arithmetic, geometry, statistics, etc. They include mathematical magic tricks (with numbers, geometrical figures, ropes, etc), construction of geometrical figures, mathematical games and so on.
