DATA MANAGEMENT- Linear Patterns

I would like to thank the Grade 8 mathematics students at Parkland Public school who took the time to share their ideas as they explored linear patterns. Their work has been posted to share for educational purposes. You have done a wonderful job of sharing your knowledge grade 8’s. I look forward to returning to Parkland to work on another project with you soon!

Sincerely,

Ms. Pasqualitto

Voice Thread- Data Mangement

Every Grade 6 student at Parkland school has been working hard to research, design and construct a paper airplane that will be able to fly "the greatest distance!" They have created data recording sheets to track their data. Next, they will prepare to anaylze their data. This Voice Thread will give students the opportunity to explain the best way to graph and display continuous data. These children will be given the opportunity to explore how different scales used on graphs can influence conclusions drawn from the data. They will also, through investigation, demonstrate an understanding of how data from graphs can be used to make inferences and convincing arguments.

How do MATH TALK prompts help you to communicate with others about math problems?

Is it possible for an individual to watch 1 000 000 hours of television in a lifetime? (Please remember to use the steps of problem solving framework) Have Fun! :)

What steps should I follow to solve a math problem?

Follow the steps of the PROBLEM SOLVING FRAMEWORK:

1. Restate the problem (in words that make sense to you)
2. Choose a strategy
3. Use the strategy to solve the problem
4. Go back and check
5. Communicate results
