This task highlights a slightly different aspect of place value as it relates to decimal notation. More than simply being comfortable with decimal notation, the point is for students to be able to move fluidly between and among the different ways that a single value can be represented and to understand the relative size of the numbers in each place.

This lesson, from Engage New York, has students investigating:the forces involved in constructing a stone archadd and subtract vectors given in magnitude and direction formsolving problems that can be represented by vectorsThis lesson has teacher and studnet versions in both PDF and Word form. In this lesson, students will investigate the forces involved in constructing a stone arch utilizing the web app GeoGebra. This investigation also use a PBS Learning/NOVA site to enhance the learning so the students have context. There are structured questions for opening and discussion of possible impacts on stone arches. Students will work on GeoGebra to find resultant vectors. Then there is a structed exploratory activity for students to calculate magnitude and direction of force vectors. This lesson also provides an optional Exit Ticket to determine if students have achieved the learning goals of the lesson.

This problem asks the student to evaluate six numerical expressions that contain the same integers and operations yet have differing results due to placement of parentheses. It helps students see the purpose of using parentheses.

Students apply their knowledge of scale and geometry to design wearables that would help people in their daily lives, perhaps for medical reasons or convenience. Like engineers, student teams follow the steps of the design process, to research the wearable technology field (watching online videos and conducting online research), brainstorm a need that supports some aspect of human life, imagine their own unique designs, and then sketch prototypes (using Paint®). They compare the drawn prototype size to its intended real-life, manufactured size, determining estimated length and width dimensions, determining the scale factor, and the resulting difference in areas. After considering real-world safety concerns relevant to wearables (news article) and getting preliminary user feedback (peer critique), they adjust their drawn designs for improvement. To conclude, they recap their work in short class presentations.
