Maria, I recently visited your website http://www.naturalmath.com where I found this lovely page: http://www.naturalmath.com/multpics/index.php
I guess I've got your idea concerning to link math concepts to nature and culture. Please see http://www.wikieducator.org/MathGloss/A/Angle and post your comments. For more info about the aims of the project, please visit http://www.wikieducator.org/MathGloss By the way, if you have some free time, please join the project. I am certain you have excellent ideas.
