It is the law!  Students do not have empathy for those owners of  that image/information.   ]]> 2019-04-11 17:29:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350887829 https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350887907 The question we are trying to solve: how are the side lengths and hypotenuse length of a right triangle connected?

Relevancy: There are tons of distances measured using the Pythagorean theorem, for example, how far is Mr. Putnam's and Mr. Olson's room from each other on a straight line. They can't walk through a wall, so they have to use the pythagorean theorem.

This connects to the real world because it teaches kids how to work with others - in teams and create a bridge that will compete in a contest. ]]> 2019-04-11 17:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350888765 chouse6 https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350888980 Students need to correctly identify the meter and then use the correct counting system to identify the various rhythms.]]> 2019-04-11 17:31:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350888980 mwhitake1 https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350889236 How can we solve for an unknown value in an equation?

Why? Knowing where you live to be able to inform those that need that info..]]> 2019-04-11 17:32:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350889544 khanson18 https://padlet.com/jkesl2/s7fehvqt0vwp/wish/350889547 Identifying themes in Literature
