  1. Friday December 6th • You will complete 3 assignments today in class. • 1 of them will be on the handout that your substitute will give to. • 1 of them is on this powerpoint. • 1 of them is the file on the weebly. • Each of these 3 assignments will be turned in before you leave today, (make sure your name is on it) • They will each count 5 points and together this will be worth 3 homework grades

  2. 1st handout (hard copy) • Pay it forward

  3. Think About This Situation: Pay It Forward In the popular book and movie Pay It Forward, Trevor McKinney was given the following social studies assignment: Think of an idea for world change and put it into practice!

  4. Think About This Situation: Pay It Forward Trevor's idea was to do something really good for three people. When they asked what they could do to pay him back, he tells them to "pay it forward", which means that they are to do something really nice for three other people. Trevor figured out that those three people would do something good for a total of nine others. Those nine would do something good for 27 others, and so on. He was sure that before long there would be good things happening to billions of people around the world.

  5. Activity two • This will be done on your own paper • Be careful folding and ripping the paper and clean up any mess you may make (especially you Marvin!) • You will turn in both tables and the questions you answered on your own piece of paper.

  6. Activity two • Take apiece of paper and fold it in half. Then unfold it • Record how many sections are formed by the creases. • Refold the paper. • Fold the paper in half again. Record how many sections are formed by the creases. Refold the paper • Continue folding the paper in half and recording the number of sections until you can no longer fold the paper.

  7. Activity two • Create a table of the number of folds you did in one column and the number of sections in the second column • Describe in your own words what is happening as you fold the paper more and more.

  8. Activity two • Take apiece of paper and carefully ripit in half. (be careful, you must clean up any paper that you drop on the ground!!!) • Record what fraction this new piece is of the original. (hint it’s half the original) • Carefully rip one of those new pieces in half again. Again record what fraction this new piece is of the original (hint it’s half the piece you just ripped or ¼ the original) • Continue ripping the paper in half and recording the fraction of the original you have left until the paper is to small to rip in half anymore.

  9. Activity two • Create a table of the number of rips you did in one column and the fraction of the original paper in the second • Describe in your own words what is happening as you rip the paper more and more.

  10. Activity three • Open up the Who wants to be a millionaire file and work through that sheet on your own paper. • Make sure to answer the questions, fill in the table, and graph the results

  11. Best of luck and have a good weekend!
