Mr. Gerard’s Oil TankMr. Gerard bought a house that contained an empty heating oil tank with the dimensions shown in the drawing. The left and right arcs of the tank are perfect semi-circles. If heating oil costs $3.50 per gallon, how much would it cost Mr. Gerard to fill this tank? (There are 231 cubic inches in a gallon.)

Designing Tasks

I am sitting on my boat reviewing state math problems and I really need a break! I decide to go paddle boarding. After I am 30 meters from the boat, I turn on my wrist GPS unit to track my progress so I can log it in my exercise journal when I am done. After 3 minutes of steady paddling (no falling in the water, stopping to admire the pretty fish or having a speed boat go by and knock me over with its wake) I am 69 meters from the boat. At this rate, how far will I be from the boat in 15 minutes?

More Concise Wording

I decide to go paddle boarding.Joan is paddle boarding. She is 30 meters from the shore.

After I am 30 meters from the boat, I decide to turn on my wrist GPS unit.

AFTER 3 MORE MINUTES OF STEADY PADDLING,( NO FALLING IN THE WATER OR STOPPING TO ADMIRE THE PRETTY FISHES)

I AM JOAN IS A TOTAL OF 69 METERS FROM SHORE

Clarify the Question

How far will Joan be from shore after 15 more minutes of paddling?

Pony RidesBen and Sarah own lots of ponies and often take them to fairs and other gatherings and sell pony rides. They have found that when they charge $6.00 per ride, they average 310 riders a day. Ben has been perfectly satisfied traveling around the countryside and bringing in that daily average revenue of $1860.00. Sarah, however, wants to bring in more money. She says that if they charge $12 per ride, their daily revenue will be $3720.00. Ben doesn’t agree. He says…

Mathematical Practices

Hunt Institute Video

Mathematical Practices

1. Making sense of problems and persevering in solving them2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of

others4. Model with mathematics5. Use appropriate tools strategically6. Attend to precision7. Look for and make use of structure8. Looking for and expressing regularity in repeated

reasoning

Construct Viable Arguments

Never Say Anything a Kid Can Say!

My definition of a good teacher has changed from “one who explains things so well that students understand” to “one who gets the students to explain things so well that they can be understood.”
