The editorial panel is pleased to (welcome readers to volume 3 of Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School. Good things come in threes, and the journal is no exception. Three noteworthy events will characterize volume 3. The first is a special March-April 1998 issue with a focus on geometry. We chose this topic because it has traditionally been an area of poor performance by middle school students, as indicated by the results of the National Assessment of Educational Progress and the Third International Mathematics and Science Study. Yet geometry has the potential for creating exciting opportunities for “doing” mathematics in the middle school classroom. Further, with the increased availability of technology-based geometry tools, students' experiences with the topic can be enhanced through dynamic aud sophisticated investigations.

This is the third in a series of discovery ideas and projects which require that students study in depth. The topics in this section are generally suitable for elementary and middle school students, however, teachers must judge appropriateness for individual students. The following pages are in an easy-to-use, “reproduce, cut, and distribute” format, and permission is granted for reproduction of these pages for classroom use.

“CAN THERE BE MONSTER INSECTS?” “Are 'human' giants of fables and fiction possible?” “Why do I sink into fresh snow and a rabbit does not?” “Why are my footprints in wet sand deeper than those of a seagull?” Middle school students can readily investigate these questions when mathematics and science are integrated. This article will focus on the last two questions, which provide rich links among animal characteristics, area of footprints, and the use of ratios in proportional reasoning.

To achieve the objectives, the researcher presented the general and theoretical framework and the methodology and procedures of the research. The sample selection where, the number of first-graders was (100) Student, And the number of third grade students (100) Student, the total sample of the research (200) students, the preparation of the scale consists of (24) paragraphs. He used statistical methods (spas) and the results were, and There are statistical differences between the first and third grade students in the middle and for the third grade and in the light of the results reached recommendations and proposals.
