Math Is Everywhere!


We read the Math Curse by: Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith at the beginning of the year. Mrs. Fibonacci cast a "Math Curse" on her students in the book and they started to see math everywhere! Has this happened to you too? Share a specific experience in your life where math was involved. How is math a part of your everyday world? Can you see how the math skills we are learning make your life easier or more successful now or in the future?
