Activity
#1 – Creating Word Problems
It is your turn to put together the data you collected on
Amuzers Dream Park to create a word problem based on your knowledge of the
order of operations. Please follow
these steps when creating your word problem:
1) Use data
from at least one of the six areas
to create your word problem. You can also add your own information into your
word problems, but that information must be used with the data on Amuzers Dream Park.
2) Select a
few key words from the beginning of the book to help you word your
problems.
3) Include at least three of the following operations
in your numerical expressions:
Parenthesis
Exponents
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
4) Write in
complete sentences and provide all the information needed to solve the problem.
5) Upload
your word problem onto the blog by posting it as a comment under the page of the book it relates to.
Activity
#2 – Answering Word Problems
After uploading your word problem onto the blog, you must
answer three classmates’ word
problems by replying to their comments.
Make sure to complete the following:
1) Select a
word problem that is not your own
2) Show your
work in your math notebooks when solving the problem
3) Comment on
the word problem to upload just your
answer, including the units
4) Repeat
steps 1-3 for two other word problems
Activity
#3 – Creating Star Word Problems
If you completed activities # 1 and #2, feel free to step up
your game with this activity. Try doing
Activity #1 again, except you have to use data from at least three sections of Amuzers Dream Park. Also, you have to all six of the operations (PEMDAS). When you finish creating this word problem, upload it onto
the blog as a Star Word Problem,
because the difficulty level was taken up a notch.
