Activities with Knots Knot Observations By making observations about knots, students become acquainted with the idea of knots as a mathematical object A Classroom Menagerie of Mathematical Knots Students explore the structure of knots by making them. Using diagrams as a guide, they learn how knots can be represented on paper. Seifert Surfaces Observing what happens when knots are turned into bubble-makers takes the study of knots in a surprising direction. Are They the Sameor Knot? Determining whether two knots are the same or different is one of the central issues in knot theory . Students make puzzles for one another that explore this. Knot Arithmetic Students experiment with ways that two or more knots can be combined to make a single one. Building Block Knots Can complex knots be described in terms of more simple ones? Students try to find ways to figure out how to do this. Knots in the World What is the relationship between mathematical knots and the knots that are used to tie and fasten things in the real world? Braids and Links Braided rope and knots that are fastened together like the links of a chain also find their way into the study of mathematical knots

English Mathematics Science Social Studies List of all modules (coming soon) Project Activities Mathematics Content Areas Guidelines Interactive Projects Related Links The Geometer's Sketchpad Activities Exploring Characteristics of Triangles Students draw triangles and explore the classification of each using the measures of interior angles and lengths of sides. In the extension activities, the students further explore and generalize a formula for the sum of the interior angles of convex polygons. Constructions of Isosceles and Equilateral Triangles Students discuss the difference between drawing and constructing a triangle using The Geometer's Sketchpad. They will further develop constructions for both isosceles and equilateral triangles. In the extension activities, students will script the construction of a right triangle. The Pythagorean Theorem Students create both a visual and formal proof of the Pythagorean theorem, as well as view four additional geometric demonstrations of the theorem. These demonstrations are based on proofs by Bhaskara, Leonardo da Vinci, and Euclid. Students will value this activity more if they have already had some experience with the Pythagorean Theorem. Exploring Centers of a Triangle: Part 1 Using problem solving skills, formal geometry, and The Geometer’s Sketchpad, students will model and solve two real-world problems by constructing the incenter and circumcenter of triangles. Students will further explore relationships between the angle and side bisectors of arbitrary triangles. The author wishes to acknowledge Dr. Billie F. Risacher for providing the real-world scenarios.

DISCRETE MATHEMATICS INSTITUTE For Connecticut Mathematics Teachers Grades 3 - 8 Wesleyan University Middletown, CT Sponsored by Project to Increase Mastery of Mathematics and Science and the Connecticut State Department of Education Print an Application What is Discrete Mathematics Discrete Mathematics is the branch of mathematics that deals with arrangements of distinct objects. One of the primary uses of discrete math is the development of an optimal strategy to solving a problem, such as- What is the best route? What is the least cost? What is the fastest method of sorting? Discrete math topics can be integrated into the regular elementary curriculum and provide activities that engage students in doing math, promote reasoning and representation, and demonstrate many real-world applications of mathematics. Institute Design The institute will include three full day programs, each addressing one of the following topics. Each day will consist of a general session to introduce the topic of the day followed by grade-appropriate implementation workshops. COURSE OFFERINGS Mathematical Modeling with Networks Networks are constructed by connecting a series of points with lines. Networks are very powerful tools for creating mathematical models in a wide variety of situations. They have been used to find the best way to route and schedule Post Office, Fed EX and UPS deliveries, and airlines. Networks are also used by the government and security companies to construct codes that are difficult to break. Participants in this session will begin to explore the diverse topic of vertex-edge graphs (also called networks) and be introduced to some of its applications.
