Concept of Whole Numbers in Arithmetic and know the purpose of whole numbers and understand how to use them in mathematics and also know the method of representing the whole numbers in mathematical language.
"Visual or sonic, real or virtual, our experiences are a constant interface with key algebraic concepts like proportional and inverse relationships, graphical representations of slope, arithmetical functions, and independent and dependent variables.
Design Zone: Behind the Scenes is a brand-new exhibit created by OMSI that makes math fun by directly connecting mathematical concepts to real-life experiences like hip-hop, art, skate parks, and more."
"Model and Solve Math Word Problems
Thinking Blocks is a suite of learning tools designed to help students solve math word problems accurately and efficiently. Using brightly colored blocks, students model mathematical relationships and identify known and unknown quantities. The model provides students with a powerful image that organizes information and simplifies the problem solving process. By modeling increasingly complex word problems, students develop strong reasoning skills which will facilitate the transition from arithmetic to algebra."
