Dog Salmon Lesson Two

In this online percentages worksheet, students access the Library of Virtual Manipulatives web site and open the percentage tool. They use the online tool to complete 8 multi-step questions making graphical representations and finding...

In this math instructional activity, students analyze 12 circles which have been divided into 2 or more sectors. Inside each part, students write the percentage of the whole circle that each sector represents.

When mathematical errors happen, part of the learning is to figure out how it affects the rest of your calculations. The activity has your mathematicians solving for the area of a circular pipe and taking into consideration any errors...

Be 100 percent confident who has the most and by how much. Pupils use percentages to help make the comparisons by finding what percent one quantity is of the other. They also determine the percent differences between the two quantities. 

Eighth graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with the concepts surrounding the interpretation of information included in graphs for analysis of data for probability. They examine circle graphs and differentiate the values of...

Students study the life cycle of the Dog Salmon while practicing naming the outside parts of the salmon in both English and Athabascan. They record observations in journals.

Pupils culminate the Dog Salmon Unit by writing a one page paper on their reflections and experience. They synthesize the Athabascan terms for the salmon parts.

Middle schoolers observe patterns and scale sizes on the salmon skin. They explore the tanning of salmon skills and practice the Athabascan terms for the salmon parts. They make salmon skin prints.

Studnets serve an afternoon tea in order to exhibit the Dog Salmon projects they completed. They take quizzes as a unit assessment.

Students, using small individual bags of M&Ms, engage in activities including; estimating, sorting, graphing, mean, median, mode, fractions, percentage, and averaging.
