Mar. 20/09 Per. D 9 Math

We spent the first part of class solving the Mastermind problem. We looked at the problem with 2 pegs, 3 pegs, 4 pegs, 5 pegs, and 6 pegs. And with each situation we tried to answer the 4 questions involved in problem solving. Notes that were taken on this topic can be found here.

1. Do we understand the problem?
2. Do we have a strategy?
3. How do we carry it out?
4. Look back: what have we learned

Following that we working on converting math symbols and numbers to English words. A practice sheet was assigned and the questions with answers can be found here.
