Math, Culture, and Popular Media Day 1: Film Resources

Bring middle school math to life for all your students! If your students can text like this: cul8r bff, they can solve this: 3x + 5 = 39 + 2x. In the middle grades personal identity becomes extra important to learning. More than a decade of research tells us that effective school mathematics has to be relevant to the lives and cultures of every student. In this workshop participants will learn unique and user-friendly ways to incorporate popular media from a variety of cultures in rich and engaging math investigations. A wide range of math concepts, from algebraic thinking to number operations and geometry to probability, are embedded within dynamic activities. Day 1 of this workshop will focus on the media of film. Engage your students with these amazing investigations from popular films.
