Modeling Population Growth: Having Kittens Projector Resources

Having Kittens Work out whether this number of descendants is realistic. Here are some facts that you will need:

Analyzing Sample Responses to Discuss Your task is to correct the work and write comments about its accuracy and organization. What has the student done correctly? What assumptions has he or she made? How could the solution be improved?

Sample Responses to Discuss: Alice

Sample Responses to Discuss: Wayne

Sample Responses to Discuss: Ben

Reviewing Work I have selected the important facts and used them to solve the problem. I am aware of the assumptions I have made and the effect these assumptions have on the result. I have used more than one method. I have checked whether my results make sense and improved my method if need be. I have presented my results in a way that will make sense to others.
