In mathematics, we are currently learning different strategies to add and subtract using a number line and also knowing our fact families. In the NEXT up-coming module, we will be looking at graphs and knowing how to "read" and "get information" from a graph. This is called data analysis. In a recent math lesson, I decided to use a bit of Scientific Inquiry and Mathematics to have them generate a graph that could also be "enjoyed" only after they comprehended and analyzed the data! Please enjoy the learning represented in our photo gallery...
Mahalo,
Mrs. Wong ;-)
The difference between our prediction and actual counts varied amongst all students. A few students predicted accurately! |
Sorting the different colors in the package of Skittles sure helped to find the total quickly! |
It sure was hard to NOT eat the DATA while gathering information to report! |
Students predicted the right colors that were going to be included in their package of Skittles! |
"Hmmm.....maybe if I took just ONE green Skittle away that wouldn't hurt my data?.......Nah, I better not! Mrs. Wong may be watching!" :) |
"I just need one more data finding to report and then I can finally TASTE the RAINBOW!" |
Working together made learning lots of fun! We helped each other by confirming our counting and analyzing our colorful data! I think we're ready for Module 6 Mrs. Wong! |
