A Long-Term Assignment that Requires a Significant Investment

Home Nugget #25
Assigned on Thursday April 13, 2012 (but introduced on Monday April 10)
Due on Tuesday April 24, 2012 (the Tuesday after we return from spring break)

Immerse yourself in the content and topics of chapters 6, 7 and 8 in anticipation of our "Teach me a lesson on..." assessment that is taking the place of the 4th term math journal. Remember that the objective here is to know the content well enough to be able to teach it to an audience (in this case the audience is me) and your medium for teaching is the sheet of paper I provide you with.

Your only resource on for this assessment is one side of a 9.5 by 11 inch paper where you hand write notes that may be a helpful resource for you when putting together the requested lesson.

The following should help to further understand the format criteria for the assessment:

Concept Introduction: lets the reader know what they are in store for. Can be an analogy, connection to a previous topic or exploration.

Concept Fundamentals: the heart and soul of a topic. This is the stuff that you simply need to know and understand.

Concept Applications: how can we apply the content in making sense of situations and solving problems? Give worked-out examples!
