I'd like to hear some ideas that anybody might have for tying Mathematics in to a 6th-10th-grade (actually, *any* grade, really) English classroom. What sorts of materials (books, articles, films, presentations, anything!) might you suggest using?
I imagine that a lot of the reading would tie-in with history and historical figures, but I'd like to be able to have at least a few lessons up my sleeve that might be able to highlight the importance of that much-loathed subject.
