Adding and Subtracting Decimals Concept

Operation(s)

Arithmetical mean is the scientific term for what is often called average. We use this to figure out what “standard” or “normal” is.

Paying attention to the signs, solve the problems. Call out the answer to a peer, using appropriate nomenclature.

To calculate the mean (or average), you must find the sum of the values, then divide by the number of items. The resulting number may not be one of the numbers on the list.

Adding and Subtracting Decimals Concept

Operation(s)

The third kind of average is called the mode. To find the mode in a list of numbers, we must simply find the value that is repeated most often. If no number is repeated, there is no mode.

Paying attention to the signs, solve the problems. Call out the answer to a peer, using appropriate nomenclature.

Level 9-12

Ask 10 of your classmates which month they were born in. Write the month as a number.

From your list see which number is repeated most often. This is the “birthday mode” for your friends.

Algebraic Expressions and Integers Identify if the expression is a numerical expression or a variable expression. If it is a variable expression, also identify the variable.

Mathematicians use Expressions to symbolize different real world problems. When a simple expression is used repeatedly, but the input data changes, the input data can be replaced using a Variable. A variable is a letter that can represent any number; therefore mathematicians can save time and effort by writing variables instead of writing the same expression again and again. Once an expression with a variable is written, that expression is known as a variable expression. Expressions that contain no variables are called numerical expressions.

The Platonic solids have been known since antiquity. The aesthetic beauty and symmetry of the Platonic solids have made them a favorite subject of geometers for thousands of years. They are named for the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who theorized the classical elements were constructed from the regular solids.

Constructing 3D Archimedean Solids Most people have heard about the Platonic solids, but did you know that there are 13 solids that were extensively discussed and analyzed by Archimedes. Although his work on these solids was lost at one time, during the classical revival period, they were rediscovered. An Archimedean solid is a highly symmetric, semi-regular convex polyhedron composed of two or more types of regular polygons meeting in identical vertices.

Constructing 3D Kepler-Poinsot Polyhedra The Kepler-Poinsot polyhedra are also known as the regular star polyhedra. Each one of these shapes has faces which are congruent regular convex polygons, or star polygons and have the same number of faces meeting at each vertex. Challenge your students by having them construct two of these 3D models; the great dodecahedron, and the great icosahedron. Each model comes in two forms. Black and white so that students can decorate them, and colored versions, so that they may come to visualize, and discover special relationships between the sides, edges, and vertices.

ELC-3047

Constructing 3D Uniform Polyhedra A uniform polyhedron is a polyhedron which has regular polygons as faces and is transitive on its vertices. Since all vertices are congruent, these types of polyhedrons are ideal for studying reflectional and rotational symmetry. If you are talking about symmetry with your students and want to give them work that will reinforce these concepts, then working on these 3D constructions is an option. Some of these constructions take time to make, however, there is a great amount of geometry that can be discovered by constructing these shapes.

Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy in 1564. He is often called the father of science for his work on telescopes and the laws of motion. He was one of the first to perform experiments and to analyze them mathematically, which D-4 separated science from philosophy. D-4 © Copyright 2008 ETC Press Inc.

This curriculum focuses on the following sections of Physical Science: Dynamics (Motion, Force, Gravity), Magnetism, Light, Heat (Energy), Sound, Electricity, and Simple Machines. Everything is designed in full color to capture the students’ attention and spark their imagination. This in turn leads them to the research cards which provide them with ample choices and opportunities to conduct research on the above topics. Help them make the connection from concrete observations to the abstract understanding of “why” things happen the way they do, with the help of our experiment cards. These cards are designed to act as stepping stones to initiate discussions and further explorations through the implementation of cross-disciplinary curriculum. A complete list of materials is included and they are easily obtained from any hardware or electronics store.

Tree of Life (cladistics)

This Tree of Life is used as a classification chart. The categories and groups are based on the popular “cladistics” approach. How do biologists categorize organisms? How are genetics used to create a lineage for one group of organisms and not others? With easily recognizable pictures students can use this chart to trace the origin of organisms back to the three domains. Note: This chart is based on the format of taxonomy known as “Cladistics.” If you are looking for a tree of life chart based on the 5 and 6 kingdom format please see item ELC-4042. Although the idea of a tree of life was originally described by Charles Darwin, it was not readily accepted until Carl Woese offered to refine the idea using genetic data to show that all organisms share common genetic patterns that can ultimately be traced back to a common origin.

Do Animals Have Feelings Too? Do animals have feelings? Until recently most scientists didn’t think so. They thought that most animals behave instinctively – that they don’t have feelings such as happiness, sadness, grief, vengefulness, or compassion. Many scientists are now changing their minds. Close observation of animals is tending to show that animals may have feelings quite similar to human feelings. This collection of true animal behavior, witnessed by naturalists and others, is both heartwarming and thought-provoking.

Earth & You - A Closer View A group of Japanese educators, publishers and businesspeople had a vision: to show children through poetry and art that everything in nature is connected, and that they too are connected with nature. They engaged a highly talented American author and illustrator, and this is the result. First published in Japanese, Earth & You introduces Earth’s major features – the oceans, mountains, deserts and so on – and links them to each other and to the human community. This book not only teaches, but testifies to the wonders of a connected world. It is the first of three books celebrating the human relation with nature’s features, nature’s creatures, and nature’s past and future.

Often they were discouraged from getting dirty, much less pursuing careers in science. But they all became renowned scientists, frequently the only women in their fields. They overcame opposition and found ways to pass on their vision of how all lives in nature are beautifully connected. Their stories remind us to look and to look harder and then to look again.

Timeline of Peace and Human Rights

Every year 19 million children, worldwide, flee their homes in order to find a safe place to live. 70% of them never make it. The ability to be able to live in a safe place is part of our human rights, yet many of our students and children grow up never realizing the struggles other people have to endure to receive fair treatment. This new timeline is aimed at advanced upper elementary students and those schools implementing a Montessori middle school curriculum. With an emphasis on cause and effect, this timeline helps students understand the need for human rights as defined by the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Because of them I can now live the dream. I am the seed of the free, and I know it. I intend to bear great fruit.” Find out for yourself why... Dimensions: W: 15 in. L: 9 ft.

Physics Solar Workshop

Solar power technology in action. In one way or another, almost every form of energy we use originates as energy from the Sun. Solar energy directly powers photovoltaic cells and thermal collectors. Indirectly, we get power from plants grown by the Sun, oceans heated by the Sun, and Earth’s weather systems sustained by the Sun. Even the energy stored in fossil fuels originated as energy from the Sun, captured by plants and animals millions of years ago. Physics Solar Workshop explores the topic of solar energy, focusing on photovoltaic cells. By building 12 models and conducting 30 experiments, you will learn how solar cells transform light into electrical energy, and how motors and mechanical devices can optimize the work done by this energy. You will build different types of vehicles and machines to demonstrate how gears can convert and transform power for different needs. There are 320 parts, which are also compatible with the other Physics kits. The 64-page book offers illustrated instructions for the projects. Developed with Greenpeace in Germany.
