    This was an excellent lesson plan in my opinion. It was very put together, and well thought out. It used application to history, and from one lesson unit to the next, it kept the concepts and formulas connected. It was a great resource to base our math lesson off of! Plus the standards were easy to pull out of it, you were able to see the application.
