Edited Lesson Plan on WikiTeach

I have edited Sheila's lesson plan by adding a introduction that connects the students to the real world and weaving. I also added a Google video that demonstrates a Lima woman weaving. I like how Sheila integrated math into the lesson by having the students measure their own yarn. Too often I hear teachers remark about the lack of measuring skills students have. I think this is because the measuring they are engaging in is isolated to a math problem rather than having a real world, working connection.
