excel data graphs comparing misleading math education lesson

shared by Kim Ammons on 19 May 13 - Cached
  • Overview: Two different bar graphs are made from the same survey of favorite foods. The students need to determine which graph is more fair and why, by studying the graphs and altering the data.

    A very practical lesson on graphical presentations and misleading (but technically factual) information.

  • I think a lot about my math teaching. Perhaps too much. This is my outlet. I hope you find it interesting and that you’ll let me know how it’s going.

    A very fun math education blog that includes great resources and many posts about honest elementary school reactions to mathematics and their theories.  One thing a teacher has to be is prepared for questions we can't answer!

  • Let us climb peaks by all means, because their beauty attracts us; not because others have failed, nor because the summits stand 28000 ft above the sea…Let us approach the peaks with humility, and through finding the way to them…learn to solve their problems. Eric Shipton (1938)

  • As an introduction to our unit on surface area and volume of solids, my students investigated cross-sections of solids through a Play-Doh Cross Sections lab activity. Materials: play-doh, paper plates, dental floss, plastic knife, and ruler.
  • Kim Ammons on 19 May 13
     
    A great math activity idea that revolves around using Play-Doh to help students learn about solid cross-sections.  I've always had a hard time visualizing these types of things, and I wish my teachers had used this lesson idea!  I can't wait to try it!

math mystery code cipher unsolved the code book

shared by Kim Ammons on 19 May 13 - No Cached
  • In 1885, a short pamphlet was published containing a strangely compelling story - a kind of cross between Edgar Allan Poe and the Wild West. It claimed to record a letter written in 1822 by a Thomas Jefferson Beale to a Mr Morriss, which in turn claimed to contain three encoded texts (now known as ‘B1′, ‘B2′, and ‘B3′) describing the location and beneficiaries of a huge treasure haul hidden in Bedford County, Virginia during 1819 and 1821.
  • Kim Ammons on 19 May 13
     
    I read about these papers in my trade book for this course (The Code Book by Simon Singh), and I almost ripped my hair out when I found out they were unsolved!  Some evidence points to it being a hoax while other evidence points to its genuineness.  What do you think?  Can you take a crack at it?

  • The consideration of cord length is very important in a bungee jump—too short, and the jumper doesn’t get much of a thrill; too long, and ouch! In this lesson, students model a bungee jump using a Barbie® doll and rubber bands. The distance to which the doll will fall is directly proportional to the number of rubber bands, so this context is used to examine linear functions.
  • Kim Ammons on 19 May 13
     
    This is a great activity that we did in my AP Statistics class in high school but which can be used in lower level math classes as well.  Barbie bungee jumping!
