The Teaching Machine

Students will be able to create their own "math city"! The project gives a very detailed project description, grading rubric, work space, coordinate plane for plotting points, key box included, as well as ordered pair sheet listed for students. Excellent activity for all level students.

Student practice on plotting points and identifying in which quadrant they will fall. Independent or group practice.

The goal is this project is to collect live data by observing the color of cars passing by on any given street. Students will have to use this data to construct line plots, frequency tables and histograms. There is also a reflection page discussing outliers and making predictions.
