Abstract: This thesis presents three fundamental research topics commonly discussed in Graph Theory, an important area of Discrete Mathematics. Our objective is to propose activities and problems that will strengthen the math skills of North Carolina high school students as they meet a required competency goal in Discrete Mathematics. For this reason, we discuss several topics such as Spanning trees, Minimum Spanning trees, Euler and Hamilton Graphs, and Vertex Coloring. Activities for practice and several applied problems are proposed with detailed solutions to achieve several learning objectives.
