I demonstrated rational numbers in my project because I can perform math operations with rational numbers examples - as decimals, fractions, squares, and square root (s). In my case I used square roots and squares to be able to answer my question. My learning process/project demonstrated these math competencies - communication, technology, strategies, connections, and also self-respect. Communication because I had to interacted/present with others. Technology because I had to do my research on my computer and for the math part I had to convert cm 3 (cubed) to m 3 (cubed). Also to record, communicate and represent thing. Strategies because I had to understand what order to put my numbers/equation so that I would get my right answer to my question. Connections because for my project I made mathematical connections to the real world and math concepts to each other. Self-respect because i'm organized, gets work done on time, making appropriate choices for my own learning and also mostly ready to learn new ways/and ideas in/for math. I learned how to calculate the
volume of pyramid (divided by)
_________________
volume of apple juice boxes (1L)
which equals the total number of apple juice boxes to make the Pyramid of Giza. By the way the answer I got was - 3,162,156,098. I see math differently now that i'm done my project by looking more closely at the numbers that are given and it was a different kind of math for me because I don't really work with numbers that big, and this project inquired more thinking about what to measure and what to divide by. Next time I might want to do differently in my project is nothing really, I liked my question and the equation I had to make and the solving part too. It was a little bit different then I usually do but that was the challenge for me is to try something a little bit more harder each time, but still so you can do it. Also I also like the size of my project I did/chose but what I think I could add to it is more questions after i'm done my big question is to go more in-depth with more questions. Like for example - How many times would my number answer ( 3,162,156,098 ) go around earth?.
Well that's all I wanted to say
Bye Bye!!
