Teacher to Teacher: Mission Possible! Can You Walk Your Talk?
Iris DeLoach Johnson · Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School · 2000
The Mission Impossible television series is a thing of the past, yet Mission Impossible movies keep the mystery and intrigue alive. I take advantage of this intrigue to make one particular mathematics lesson more interesting for my students. This lesson uses a problemsolving approach to introduce an exploration of graphing-related concepts, such as intercepts, slope, and rates of change.
