Elementary School

Harvest Halloween

In this learning experience/unit, students will:

• Solve a “real” problem that is connected to students’ interests (and is integrated with other curriculum areas, i.e., science, social studies, health).
• Relate mathematics to things students do outside of school (with their families) and thus to see that mathematics is present and useful (both inside and outside the classroom).
• See that a problem can have more than one solution.
