RESOURCE LINKS FOR TEACHERS

• Geometry Resources
  PBS Teacher Online. This website offers teachers math lesson plans and activtiies, allowing teachers to discover innovative professional development in math and technology. You can watch free, searchable online video of teachers modeling math lessons.
• Free web based workshops and courses
  The Annenberg CPB Channel is a free satellite channel for schools, colleges, libraries, public broadcasting stations, public access channels, and other community agencies. It is presented 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, and airs an extraordinary range of teacher professional development and instructional programs funded by Annenberg/CPB. It is available to any non-commercial agency with a Ku-band satellite dish and a DigiCipher II satellite receiver. The teacher resources also provide information on video workshops for K-12 math teachers.
• Table of Resources arranged by grade level and subject
  Teachers can search over 1100 carefully reviewed Internet math resources. Selected Web Resources are useful mathematics education resources on the Internet. They can be used to improve the teaching and learning of mathematics for all students and can help you understand and apply The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM's) Principles and Standards for School Mathematics.
• New Jersey Curriculum Framework
  The New Jersey Mathematics Curriculum Framework was developed to provide information, guidance, and assistance to teachers and curriculum developers in implementing the mathematics standards adopted by the New Jersey State Board of Education in 1996. The Framework was presented to the Board in January 1997. The entire New Jersey Mathematics Curriculum Framework is now available at this site in HTML for online browsing and in Acrobat (PDF) format for printing.
• Lesson plans organized by grade level
  Internet-Based Lesson Plans are examples of how the Internet can be used to help create effective Standards-based mathematics lessons. For example, some Web sites provide real-world data that can be analyzed or used to develop mathematical concepts. Other sites provide detailed information about areas in which mathematics is applied or contain tools that can be used to graph, visualize, or compute. Teachers and students can download data sets from the World Wide Web, collaborate in online data-collection projects, and search electronic libraries and data files.
• Isometric dot paper and 3-D Drawing Tool
  Teachers can use this interactive mathlet to create dynamic drawings on isometric dot paper. You can draw figures using edges, faces, or cubes and shift, rotate, color, decompose, and view in 3D or 2D.

• Virtual Library of Manipulatives
  The National Library of Virtual Manipulatives for Interactive Mathematics is a math instruction website for Grades Pre-K through 12 with the strongest emphasis on K-8. The project is a three-year NSF supported project that developed a collection of interactive Java applet based tutorials, for mathematics instruction. For more information on our website, CLICK HERE.
• Pattern Blocks
  This program can be used to familiarize oneself with the different pattern block shapes, their relations, and their proportions.The program can be used as a tool to learn and practice fractions.
• Cuisenaire Rods (Integer Bars)
  Integer bars are used to learn basic mathematics such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and more. This lesson will help you learn to do all these things by yourself. The size of each bar, or its value, increases by one as you go from white, red, light green, etc. until you get to orange with a value of 10. You can print the tables out and see a description on how the program works. It’s fun to do!
