This is an excellent resource for Math teachers in all grade levels and topic areas. Mathalicious helps engage students in the study of math because it uses problems that are related and relevant to students lives. There are some really great ideas in here, along with sample lesson plans, teaching worksheets, and step by step guides.

From Education Week: http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/sarameads_policy_notebook/2011/05/karim_kai_ani_founder_mathalicious.html "Mathalicious builds high-quality, standards-based math lessons designed to transform how students learn math, and how teachers teach it." "Mathalicious is rewriting middle school math around real-world topics that students care about, from sports to music to technology. By contextualizing math for their students and making math real, teachers can cover more material in less time, and with better results."
