We have piloted the software prototype in several classrooms, and eventually we hope to disseminate the software through a software publisher to students and teachers around the country. In the meantime, we want to make the content of the software available to a wider audience. Below are some of the videos that have been created for the software along with extension activities for your classroom.
*The solution for each activity is included on the last page of each file.
