Digital Stories and MATH?!?!

Really?  How can stories and math some how become combined within one curriculum?  I think they can be successfully.  I think that I will be able to implement digital stories into my curriculum as content preview for particular sections.  It would also be a great way to show students how the math that we are discussing in class is seen in the real world.  I also believe this would be a great way to show students how the various mathematical concepts are applied in various occupations.  This also might be a powerful assignment for students to complete on their own.  Have the students discover where math is seen in the world and what types of occupations utilize the mathematics we have studied throughout the year.  I am excited to try to incorporate these into my classroom and test them out with students.  We'll see how it goes.
