MathAd World

“MATHS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A WATERLOO FOR ME” “MATHS : MENTALLY AFFECTED TEACHERS HARASSING STUDENTS” These are the two statements that describe the strong emotions students and parents feel towards the subject. The first remark has been the pet of many parents who request me to counsel their kids and pay individual attention to their math performance. The second, I suppose, is a much-loved joke made by students all over the globe. Yes! Math does elicit razor sharp extreme reactions among all those who encounter it. So my very first attempt when I interact with students and parents is to help them perceive Mathematics as a fun and lively subject.  Every new lesson that I introduce in the class begins with a fun activity. It may be a game, a song, a video, a role play, a discussion or a creative piece of writing. One such creative way that I try to use in my classroom is to write or enact an advertisement – a MathAd from the fictional world that I have tastefully created and called the MathWorld. Here are some examples for you to enjoy, use and build upon….  FOR SALE Don’t Take a Chance Taken by surprise? Next time know the outcome before it happens.
