Its language –
clear and concise;
its discipline –
profound and alive;
its usefulness –
diverse and practical;
and its
continuous contribution
to the
unraveling and understanding
of life’s
mysteries.
For mathematics
to be appreciated, one has to see beyond the ideas,
concepts and
skills presented in the confines of the classroom.
It has to be
made real, relevant, tangible and enjoyable at the same time.
And how do we do
these?
We can only do
so by presenting our learners all the possible different
connections and
applications Mathematics has.
(Blanco,
2005)
This is what the
Learning Activities aim to achieve-
To show how
Mathematics can be made alive in its simplicity.
To supplement
and deepen the classroom instruction,
various
activities that the teacher and students
may enjoy and
find meaning in are presented.
It is hoped that
teachers get use of the activity
that will
inspire students to get a glimpse
of the
importance of Mathematics.
