This was by far, my favorite solution!<br />@Scott: This was kind of my thinking too. How often do our students walk in with a case of Amnesia? How do we treat them. Do we provide students with enough time, tools, or opportunities to build their solutions from scratch?<br />@Nathan: Another fine suggestion. Right up there with David's. <br />@Dan: Fun approach!<br /><br />Here's what we actually did with these supplies:<br />http://mr-stadel.blogspot.com/2013/05/cent-ed-whiffle-balls.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699410662148629132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256375873271579383.post-48594935682944757042013-05-18T23:15:26.068-07:002013-05-18T23:15:26.068-07:00Your current grade.Your current grade.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699410662148629132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256375873271579383.post-59393095675420113122013-05-17T17:47:27.985-07:002013-05-17T17:47:27.985-07:00Empty the cup and have the students determine how ...Empty the cup and have the students determine how many pennies it would take in the cup to equal the weight of the ball(s).Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256375873271579383.post-74078384546319069662013-05-16T18:17:44.641-07:002013-05-16T18:17:44.641-07:00Differentiate!!!

Pennies can be used to increase the slope (10 pennies, 15 pennies, 20 pennies) the ball's speed can be measured on the graph output on the calculator and then have the students predict based upon the data.<br /><br />Alternately, have students guess at the number of pennies which it would take to go around the ball in a circle. Then have the students try and guess how many for the next circle around the first circle and so on....<br /><br />Scottasymptote12https://www.blogger.com/profile/04552324687060580556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256375873271579383.post-17779642317741633772013-05-16T10:00:00.999-07:002013-05-16T10:00:00.999-07:00Since I don't remember any math, I take the ch...Since I don't remember any math, I take the change in the cup and buy a Powerball ticket.

Then for 10 minutes, have them write about some to the things that they have learned this year in _____class. Then, in groups, have them share their thoughts. <br /><br />Divide into red ball and white ball groups and then share again. The person who reads first then passes the ball to someone who shares what they have learned. <br /><br />I'll be curious to see what other people post, but this was the first thing that came to mind. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256375873271579383.post-922386204453364452013-05-15T22:01:43.672-07:002013-05-15T22:01:43.672-07:00What grade am I teaching?What grade am I teaching?stevens009https://www.blogger.com/profile/02110579407392732955noreply@blogger.com
