My Project

I am going to teach math models and their applications this next school year, which is new to our school. I want to provide the students with the correct materials to properly explore the mathematical concepts in architecture, art, music, social science and personal finance.

These items will help underprivileged students have the opportunity to explore careers in architecture, art, music, social sciences and finance, which is normally out of reach.

I am going to use the books to help relate concepts of math in music and art, as these are less focused on. I want them to have the proper tools for drawing architectural plans and exploring geometric properties of art and architecture.
