| Collection Name: | Middle School Portal: Math and Science Pathways (MSP2)
|
|---|
| Collection Description: | The Middle School Portal: Math and Science Pathways (MSP2) identifies digital resources that support reform-based middle school math and science teaching and learning. Its Mathematics Pathway and Science Pathway present standards-based publications that take an in-depth look at teachable concepts in math and science. All resources are examined with the following criteria in mind: content of the resource is accurate; it promotes student learning; it aligns with one or more national math and/or science education standards; it is grade-level appropriate; it promotes equity and access; and the resource is easily navigable. A blog called Connecting News to National Science Education Standards encourages science teachers to integrate current events into their instruction. Users can also search or browse by subject lists and register to be notified when new content is posted to the site. |

| Resource Title: | The Golden Ratio
|
|---|
| Description: | This Web site provides a basic introduction to one of the most amazing discoveries in mathematics: the Golden Ratio. Created by David L. Narain, this site offers a particularly engaging way to bring together math and the natural sciences in the classroom. Seven straightforward activities have students construct a golden rectangle and spiral, and also explore the Golden Ratio in nature and in other contexts. The site also includes a quiz; answers are not provided, though. The activities are designed for 9th and 10th graders, but would also be appropriate for middle school students. |
