Mathalicious is transforming the way math is taught by providing teachers with real-world lessons that help them engage their students & teach more effectively. Studies show that a majority of students have negative views of math. They view it as meaningless and irrelevant to their lives and ask, “When will I ever need this?” Mathalicious allows teachers to say, “Now.”

Lessons teach math through real-world topics that students care about, from sports to technology to health & wellness. Not only do students use the world to learn math, they also use math to learn about the world.

At Mathalicious our goal is simple: to fundamentally reawaken what it means to teach & learn math; to develop curriculum that creates the smartest, healthiest, kindest and most curious students on earth.

Hey, i love your idea. Have you checked out CK-12.org - it's an interesting space to find curriculum from other teachers who may have already created lesson plans like these. Check it out and let me know if it's helpful. Good luck!
