In addition, students will keep a log of the run times of the snowboarders in order to compute average run times that can be graphed. During the halfpipe competition, snowboarders are judged on rotation.
Students explore the mathematical meaning of rotation in the context of creating tessellations.
Practice measurement skills. Solve simple equations involving proportions. Convert from metric measurements to English system measurements. Use a protractor to measure an angle. Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve a problem.
