These bad grades mad Tyler despise mathematics and report it as his weakest subject
And by 5th grade, he was classified as “Other Health Impaired with an Individualized Education Program for difficulties with executive functioning, anxiety, and sensory integration.”
• Tyler took visual-spatial geared activities to correct his confidence issue in math
• One way to do this is to morph art with math assignments
Math and art = symbiotic
• Geometry and art both use shapes, angles, and relationships between the two.
Art and math both also use technical skills
• “The musical pitch of each note has a corresponding frequency measured physically in hz (hertz) or cycles per second. There are some important mathematical relationships between the notes played in music and the frequency of those notes”
• In music, the A note is 9 white keys below middle C is always 440 hz.
• …And the ratio between frequencies of half tones is always the 12th root of 2.

“CPMP [students]…more positively disposed toward mathematics…”
CPMP incorporates Realistic Math Education
RME takes advantage of one carefully chosen problem
