Abstract
Introduction: The NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards (NCTM 1989) recom- mends that teachers connect mathematics to the world outside the classroom. Classroom activities should afford students the opportunity to work individually as well as in small- and large-group arrangements. Teachers should furnish experiences that enhance students' ability to communicate in mathematics and that integrate the students' cultural background into the learning of mathematics. The activities described in this article respond to these recommendations. They were designed for students in Hawaii, but all students can benefit from doing them.
