A Collection of Connections for Junior High Western Canadian Protocol Mathematics
Sol E. Sigurdson, Thomas E. Kieren, Terri-Lynn McLeod and Brenda Healing
We have put together “A Collection of Connections” that consists of 12 uses of junior high school mathematics. These activities support the communication and connections strands of the Western Canadian Protocol mathematics curriculum. In using them, teachers may adapt them extensively. They can serve as a basis of one to three mathematics periods. We have also found that teachers need to plan if they intend to incorporate them into their teaching units.
