100th Day of School ActivitiesFriday February 4, 2011Do you count the schooldays with your students each year? I always do, leading up a special numerical celebration on the 100th day of school.But this year, I've switched it up and am focusing on the 111th day of the school year, as a little nod to the year 2011. Truth be told, eleven is my favorite number and there are so many fun things you can do with the number one.No matter what number you choose, check out this list of number-themed activities that span the curriculum and are flexible enough for adaptation to your specific needs.

National data find more students scoring poorly on AP examsMore students nationwide are taking and passing Advanced Placement exams, but more also are receiving low scores, especially in math and science, according to data released Wednesday by the College Board. Some

experts say the lower scores could be linked to a widespread push for students to take AP courses even if they are not ready. Maryland ranked top for the third consecutive year in graduates who received a 3 or higher on the exams. The state also led the nation in improvement among black students.

Check out our MathTappers apps for students who need to build understanding and fluency in basic concepts. (Find Sums, Multiples, Estimate Fractions, Clockmaster). We have three more coming out soon. They are all free and without ads.
Unfortunately our apps don't currently project through a data-projector - but I'm hoping the new iPad this spring will fix that issue for all apps.

Last year our district (actually myself and two other teachers in my district) created the following website:http://www.bcmathhelp.ca/We are hoping to populate this website with video tutorials that directly match the learning outcomes for Foundations of Math 10. Right now, all we have are links to each learning outcome. Ideally, there would be one or two (or even more) videos (either short tutorials or complete classroom lessons) for each topic. This would allow parents and students to be able to access free, teacher created, non-

password protected, public domain help for the Foundations of Math 10 curriculum.
All we need now are the videos. So, if any of you are using a tablet (or other device) to post tutorials or actual lessons online, and if you are comfortable having them made public, I would love it if you would reply to me personally with a link and brief description of the topics covered in the video.
Long term goals would be to set up a similar site that had the lessons listed by textbook topic rather than learning outcomes. Even longer goals would be to have a framework for every Math course in place.
Basically, I'm trying to set up something like the Khan Academy (http://www.khanacademy.org/), but matching the BC curriculum, created by BC teachers. I'm also hoping to be able to crowd source the video creation.
If any schools or districts have already set something like this up, please let me know. I don't want to re-invent the wheel. I would happily link our page to yours.
Suggestions? Feedback? Comments? Videos?

Get the Math, produced by WNET, is an exciting new multimedia project about algebra in the real world. Students, grades 7-12, have an opportunity to see how professionals working in fashion, video game design, and music production use algebraic thinking. Students watch short-segmented video then take on interactive challenges related to those careers. Teachers get added support with a training video on how to use the site and corresponding lesson plans. Later this month, look out for the launch of three new self-paced lessons on VITAL based on Get the Math. Use the self-paced lessons if you'd like students to work independently, or use the Get the Math web site for large-group instruction -- it's up to you. So get busy and Get the Math!

A Time For ChangeSolution
Problem
A customer purchased some cough candies for $1.73 and paid for them with atwo-dollar coin. The cashier made the correct change using only pennies,nickels, dimes and quarters. In how many different ways can the cashier makechange?
Solution
This is a good problem for applying a systematic approach.
The amount of change required is $2− $1.73 = $0.27 or 27 cents. In order toget to 27 a minimum of 2 pennies are required. We can systematically look atall of the possibilities using pennies. The number of pennies given must end ina 2 or a 7 so that when this number is subtracted from 27 the result will be anumber ending in 0 or 5. This result can then be achieved using nickels, dimesor quarters. Therefore, we can use 2, 7, 12, 17, 22 or 27 pennies. The followingchart presents the possibilities.
Number of Pennies Number of Nickels Number of Dimes Number of Quarters
2 0 0 12 1 2 02 3 1 02 5 0 0
7 0 2 07 2 1 07 4 0 0
12 1 1 012 3 0 0
17 0 1 017 2 0 0
22 1 0 0
27 0 0 0
∴ there are 13 different ways to make the correct change.

Problem of the WeekGrade 9 and 10
The Case of the Missing DigitsSolution
Problem
A student discovered the question shown below on a scrap piece of paper. Inboth the top and bottom numbers, the middle digit was unreadable. However,there was a note on the page beside the question which read: “the sum isdivisible by 3.” If the missing middle digit in the top number is A and themissing middle digit in the bottom number is B, determine all possible valuesfor A and B.
2 A 4+ 3 2 9
5 B 3
Solution 1
First we can find the possible values of B. For a number to be divisible by 3,the sum of its digits must be divisible by 3. Only 513, 543 and 573 are divisibleby three so the only possible values for B are 1, 4, or 7.
We know that 2A4 + 329 = 5B3 so 2A4 = 5B3− 329.
We can try each of the possible values for B in the equation 2A4 = 5B3− 329to find values of A that make the equation true.
1. If B=1, then 513− 329 = 184, which cannot equal 2A4. So when B = 1there is no A to satisfy the problem.
2. If B=4, then 543− 329 = 214, which does equal 2A4 when A = 1. So forA = 1 and B = 4 there is a valid solution.
3. If B=7, then 573− 329 = 244, which does equal 2A4 when A = 4. So forA = 4 and B = 7 there is a valid solution.
∴ when A = 1 and B = 4 or A = 4 and B = 7, the given problem has a validsolution.

WWW.CEMC.UWATERLOO.CA | The CENTRE for EDUCATION in MATHEMATICS and COMPUTING
Solution 2
2 A 4+ 3 2 9
5 B 3
When the digits in the unit’s column are added together, there is one carriedto the ten’s column. When the digits in the hundred’s column are addedtogether we get 2 + 3 = 5 so there is no carry from the ten’s column.Therefore, when the ten’s column is added we get 1 + A + 2 = B or A + 3 = B.
We can now look at all possible values for A that produce a single digit valuefor B in the number 5B3. We can then determine whether or not 5B3 isdivisible by 3.
The following table summarizes the results.
A B = A + 3 5B3 Divisible by 3 (yes/no)?0 3 533 no1 4 543 yes2 5 553 no3 6 563 no4 7 573 yes5 8 583 no6 9 593 no
∴ when A = 1 and B = 4 or A = 4 and B = 7, the given problem has a validsolution.

Problem of the WeekGrade 11 and 12
Answer the Question AskedSolution
Problem
It is given that (x + y)2 = 16, (y + z)2 = 36, and (x + z)2 = 81.If x + y + z ≥ 1, determine the number of possible values for x + y + z.
Solution
Since (x + y)2 = 16, x + y = ±4. Since (y + z)2 = 36, y + z = ±6. And since(x + z)2 = 81, x + z = ±9.
Now (x + y) + (y + z) + (x + z) = 2x + 2y + 2z = 2(x + y + z). This quantity istwo times the value of the quantity we are looking for.
The following chart summarizes all possible combinations of values for x + y,y + z, and x + z and the resulting values of 2x + 2y + 2z and x + y + z. Thefinal column of the chart states a yes or no answer to whether the value ofx + y + z is ≥ 1.
≥ 1?x + y y + z x + z 2x + 2y + 2z x + y + z (yes / no)
4 6 9 19 9.5 yes4 6 −9 1 0.5 no4 −6 9 7 3.5 yes4 −6 −9 −11 −5.5 no−4 6 9 11 5.5 yes−4 6 −9 −7 −3.5 no−4 −6 9 −1 −0.5 no−4 −6 −9 −19 −9.5 no
Therefore there are three possible values of x + y + z such that x + y + z ≥ 1.It should be noted that for each of the three possibilities, values for x, y, and zwhich produce each value can be determined.
