mrbinfield.bsky.social @mrbinfield.bsky.social · 02/04/2025Ss played a game that directly used these relational rods. They now need to score the total value of the rods. For reference, dark green on top=6. How would you calculate the sum? How do you think Ss would? #iteachmath #elemmathchat #msmathchat #mtbos #mathed #mathisfigureoutable 122
mrbinfield.bsky.social @mrbinfield.bsky.social · 07/03/2025Using the levelling strategy, Neal says the mean of this data is 5.2. Nat says that the mean of this data set is 5.4. Who has a misconception? What would you ask? #msmathchat #elemmathchat #iteachmath #mathisfigureoutable #mtbos 010

mrbinfield.bsky.social @mrbinfield.bsky.social · 17/12/2024I just used the “levelling strategy” to find the mean of this data set. I know it’s kind of 4, but what does that extra cube at the top represent?
