This task uses: Learning Objective(s): Apply the Pythagorean theorem S SUBSTITUTION Technology acts a direct substitute, with no functional improvement

2. Application of the Volume formula 1.Watch the video: http://www.phschool.com/atschool/academy123/english/academy123_c ontent/wl-book-demo/ph-105s.html http://www.phschool.com/atschool/academy123/english/academy123_c ontent/wl-book-demo/ph-105s.html 2.Using Word, write a brief 3-5 sentence paragraph that explains how the shape of the base of a pyramid affects its volume. 3.Be sure to run a spell check and a grammar check. 4.Save the document to an easy to locate place. 5.Email that document to me as an attachment at renae.broussard@cpsb.org. Watch and respond to a video posted online This task uses: Learning Objective(s): Write a paragraph. Apply the formula for volume of a pyramid. Write and send and email with an attachment. A AUGMENTATION Technology acts as a direct tool for substitution with some functional improvement.

3. Formula Trading Card 1.Collect your notes on finding the volume of a pyramid from class. 2.Take or find a picture that you feel illustrates a pyramid. Save it in an easy to locate place. 3.Go to http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/student- interactives/trading-card-creator-30056.html and create a trading card for this formula.http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/student- interactives/trading-card-creator-30056.html 4.Your card must include a picture, the actual theorem, tips for use and a real-world application. 5.Use the snipping tool to save a picture of your card. 6.Upload that picture to the Blackboard discussion thread. 7.Reply to at least one other post in the forum. In your post, you should explain if you agree that the picture illustrates a pyramid. Support your answer. Create a trading card for the formula for the volume of a pyramid. This task uses: Learning Objective(s): Illustrate the formula for calculating the volume of a pyramid. List a real-world application for the volume of a pyramid..Use proper mathematical terminology M MODIFICATION Technology allows for significant task redesign.

4. Prove It! 1.Find a partner. 2.Choose to prove the theorem for a cone or for a pyramid. 3.Develop a plan that uses three-dimesional figures to prove your choice. 4.Use the popplet app to construct a storyboard for your voicethread proof. 5.Construct the actual figures. Be sure to document your construction process either with a video or a set of still pictures. 6.Use your figures to prove the formula. 7.Film the process. 8.Follow your popplet storyboard to create a voicethread that shows and explains your proof. Be sure to use your screen names. 9.Your voicethread must include at least one picture, one video clip, text and audio from both members of the team. 10.Once complete, share your thread with the geometry group. Add the link in the Blackboard to Discussion Board titled Prove It! 11.View at least four threads. Leave at least two text comments and two audio comments. 12.Check each thread for correctness. Leave constructive criticism, or a suggestion for improvement on each thread. Create a voicethread that proves the formula for the volume of a cone or a cylinder. This task uses: Learning Objective(s): Construct three dimensional figures Prove a theorem Communicate mathematically using proper terminology Provide constructive criticism R REDEFINITION Technology allows for the creation of new tasks that were previously not conceivable.
