Thursday night was back to school night at my school and that day in sixth period we had worked on a problem I had left up on the board. When a parent asked her daughter where the problem started she said this
“Well, I guess it all started with your phone.”
It definitely did.
First I showed them this
Then I showed them this
Which lead us to this
then with some research we got to here
Which ended in the question at the bottom of the board.
I have yet to get student response back but they were SUPER in to the research and the math. We’ll see.
