Today was the second day of our “Attack of the Mean, Median, Mode, and Range” project/webquest! Students were given a rubric and we discussed, in great detail, the components of the project and the type of work I am expecting from them! Here are the components we talked about in class:
This is such a great project as it incorporates technology, math, AND a writing component into one assignment…..something you don’t find everyday in math! This assignment will be counted as a GOLD grade because it is so involved and lengthy. What a wonderful opportunity for students to show their proficiency with a skill besides another test!

Same formula: is/of = %/100
