Kinesthetic Dance for Memorable Math

This is a project in which you will choreograph and perform a dance to help teach a mathematical concept. You will research the mathematical concept to be sure you are solid on mastering the concept itself, to then be able to teach others. Then you will choose dance moves that will help students remember those concepts.
