Amazon Mission (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 Amazon Mission, students help a native village surmount malaria, and confront the environmental hazards of gold-mining. Students will conduct mathematics investigations including calculating and interpreting the slope of a line

graphing a compound inequality

producing and analyzing a line graph that relates two variables distinguishing between independent and dependent variables drawing a three-dimensional object and its net

finding the surface area of a three-dimensional object

writing a compound inequality statement

identifying and extending exponential patterns

calculating compound probabilities

Science investigations include:

conducting two controlled experiments

collecting experimental data
