The “IDEAS” section for this month focuses on connections among mathematics, concern for the environment, and conservation of natural resources. Each activity allows opportunities for communicating, reasoning, and problem solving as students become personally involved in helping to conserve natural resources. This investigative approach that connects mathematics to students' everyday lives is recommended in the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989).
