Shelves in Kids Room

Welcome to the Kids Room on the Leone Learning Systems Site!

This section of my web site is set up like a Montessori classroom, where work is arranged on shelves for you to pick out. There are seven shelves:

Turns & Sectors A new way of looking at turtles and shapes
Circular Reasoning Free software from Leone Learning Systems for illustrating geometric ideas and doing design work
Angles Naming and measuring angles
Rational Numbers in Geometry See how fractions and proportions are used to expand or shrink geometric figures
Introduction to Algebra with Logo Use free software from the University of California at Berkeley to explore ideas in algebra
Probability and Statistics with NetLogo An interesting perspective on combinatorics, probability, and statistics based on work done by the Netlogo folks at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois
Camp Logo Programming tips and demos from a Logo summer camp I give at Northwestern
