Throughout this year, the Math 9 Pre-IB students have been doing an individual inquiry that lets them delve deep into the math related to real world objects.
Using such sources as the Khan Academy, Wolfram Alpha, Math is Fun & whatever they find useful, students have been researching online in the library and at home.
Attached you will find the assignment the students are currently working on. In brief, students pick an object and then find all the math they can in the object. They will then present their discoveries to the class using digital technologies.
I am looking forward to their presentations in April - some of which we hope to be able to share on this blog.
