How can you spend your Math Minutes this week?
- How long would it take you to trick-or-treat? This question is open-ended and could have a variety of responses. Just make sure to explain your reasoning and how you calculated the total time to hit all the houses. Use Drawing Pad, paper and pencil, or post a comment of your solution.
- Vampire Bats…if you dare! Watch the video and click on the VampireBats.pdf document to learn more about these creatures…and solve a few math problems while your’e at it. Post a comment about something new you learned!
- Have you ever tried growing pumpkins? Here’s a Giant Pumpkin Time-Lapse that’s kind of cool.
Something new about vampire bats that I learned is that they groom themselves a lot
Wow that pumpkin time laps was awesome ! I look like the plants were even singing to the song!
