Everest Trek (Building Math) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

This simulation is uniquely appropriate for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) initiatives. And it's great fun!

Students will use algebraic thinking, data analysis and the engineering design process to solve problems in real-world settings.

In Building Math for Common Core State Standards: Everest Trek, students overcome the challenges of extreme weather and dangerous trail conditions to conquer the world's tallest mountain.

Students will conduct mathematics investigations including

Locating and representing the range of acceptable values on a graph to meet design criteria

Extrapolating data based on trends.

Producing and analyzing graphs that relate two variables

Distinguishing between independent and dependent variables

Producing and analyzing graphs that relate two variables

Comparing rates of change (linear versus non linear relationships)

Measuring angles using a protractor

Comparing and discussing appropriate measures of central tendenc
