Locating Earthquake Epicenter Lab - Triangulation
This is a lab to help students explore the triangulation method used to determine earthquake epicenters. I created this lab because I wanted a lab that very purposefully made students practice the analysis of seismogram data, calculate pertinent information such as "lag time" from P-wave and S-wave data and use triangulation to determine epicenter location. I wanted a lab that (a) focused on these skills and not other data (while interesting and important could also distract from the learning t

Importance of learning math skills
It's no secret that mathematics is one of the foundational subjects that students need to learn. Math forms the basis for so many other subjects — like science, engineering, and technology — and because of that, it's essential that students develop strong math skills starting from a very young age.
Benefits of learning math
Learning math has many benefits. It helps students:
- Begin to develop problem-solving, logical reasoning, and critical-thinking skills
- Grow their understanding of numbers and basic operations
- Understand how math is used in real-life situations
By ensuring that students have a solid foundation, teachers can help set them up for future success.
