Have students make a pictograph showing the comparison of what a human can eat in a night to a bat using the worksheet. Show where to go for the graphics and what it should look like. Give students several minutes to do this. Using Excel, students will make a pictograph of the comparison of how much a human can eat in a night compared to a bat. Have students turn in their pictographs by printing it out and giving it to me.
Students turn in pictograph.
Students respond to the question. The assessment will be the worksheet of bat story problems given to the students and the pictograph of the comparison of human eating habits to bats' eating habits. The rubric for the pictograph is as followed. In order to help minority students and students with a disability I may do more story problem examples on the board for them. I also might have them use manipulatives to help them add, subtract, and multiply.
