You Reap What You Sow
On the 9th we finished the activity that we had previously started. This time we focused on the math portion of the activity dealing with crops and farming. We also continued the game to help show us that there is a lot of things that are left to chance when farming. Some of these things we encountered and discussed were pests and weather. We filled out several charts that lead us to discover how much profit we would have made given our decisions and chance.
These pictures show the charts we filled out. Finally with our profit we then used a pie graph to see how it was spent amongst the farm and family. The students were surprised to see how things can affect the crops and the profits. They were also surprised to see the percentages of the profit that went to various needed items.
PLEASE NOTE
