Math B Winter Project

Hello visionaries!!! Welcome back! You were missed - the high school was so quiet without you(!)

For your next blog posting, you will again be working in teams of three. You can work with the same group as last time, or choose a new group. Here are your choices for topics:

(1) Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions with the same denominator
(2) Multiplying Rational Expressions
(3) Dividing Rational Expressions
(4) Adding and Subtracting Rational Expressions with different denominators
(5) Factor Trees
(6) Vocabulary
(7) Description of Math B topics in Valley Girl
(8) Description of Math B blog in Valley Girl

You will be using Word. To write the rational expression, use the ' / ' sign to show the fraction.

Each group MUST choose a different topic, and the groups that have the correct number of students and tell me their choice first will get priority.

You will be typing up your project in Microsoft Word today. You should use the same format that you used last time:

(1) Title of project
(2) Names of team members (real names, not nicknames)
(3) Introductory paragraph (5-15 sentences) - introduce your topic, define it, write out steps used for that type of problem, write out real world examples, etc.
(4) Five examples that YOU solve
(5) Ten problems that you DO NOT solve (the class will!)
(6) Conclusion (5-15 sentences) - discuss your blog posting, with references to the examples that you solved

Since there are SIX different parts to the project, each team member should be working on a DIFFERENT part - no one should be sitting at their laptop with nothing to do today.

Save your work to the student server, and we will be back in the lab tomorrow so you can post your work on the blog.

Happy Blogging!
