Helping Kids "Get It" with Everyday Math

Common Core has changed the way math is being taught. Both teachers and students struggle with ways to increase understanding and improve basic skills.  There are good examples in this article which can be used in Title I classes.  So many kids figure they won't need math because they have good technology to do the work for them.  One 6th grade teacher told her class to give her a situtation where you will never use math.  She responded....I'll give you 10 ways that you will.
