The Math Forum has information, challenges, and activities in mathematics across all grade levels. The internet is a vast storehouse of information and resources. Effective mathematics lessons can be created by tapping into the internet. For example, internet links can provide real-world data that can be analyzed or used to develop mathematical concepts. Other links may provide detailed information about areas in which mathematics is applied.
Some web sites provide tools that can be used to graph, visualize, or compute.
The lessons plans in this section of the Illuminations site are examples of how internet links can be used to create effective Standards-based mathematics lessons. None are currently available for the Across the Grades section. Using this link will open another browser window. To return to the Illuminations site, simply close the browser window that you are using to view the Principles and Standards. Clicking on the each standard will take you to the overview of that standard.
