Expectations for Project 1. Focus on the math, not on the slide show. 2. You need at least 3 slides 1. A title page- include both partners’ names 2. In words, explain the order of operations 3. Write and simplify an expression showing each part of PEMDAS 3. Due by the end of class tomorrow 4. If you get done… OCOChange the slide design OPOPut in transitions and animations OMOMake up your own PEMDAS OAOAdd pictures and sounds

Order of Operations By Mrs. Beardsley and Mrs. White

The order that we do math problems matters. You can solve problems in the correct order by remembering… Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally (OR) P E MD AS P ( ) Do what is in the parenthesis first. E 3 2 Exponents next. M/D Then do multiplication and division from left to right. A/S Adding and Subtracting from left to right is last.

Example Expression 48 ÷ (8+4) × ÷12 × ÷ 12 × × P: Do what is in the parentheses first. (8+4)= 12 E: Do the exponents. 3 2 = 3 x 3=9 M D: Next do multiplication and division from left to right. 48 ÷ 12 = 4. 4 x 6= 24. A S: Last do addition and subtraction from left to right. There is only addition so you do = 35

How will your project be graded? CATEGORY5432 Mathematical Concepts Explanation shows complete understanding of the order of operations concepts used to solve the problem(s). Explanation shows substantial understanding of the order of operations concepts used to solve the problem(s). Explanation shows some understanding of the order of operations concepts needed to solve the problem(s). Explanation shows very limited understanding of the order of operations concepts needed to solve the problem(s) OR is not written. Mathematical Errors90-100% of the steps and solutions have no mathematical errors. Almost all (85-89%) of the steps and solutions have no mathematical errors. Most (75-84%) of the steps and solutions have no mathematical errors. More than 75% of the steps and solutions have mathematical errors. Mathematical Terminology and Notation Correct terminology and notation are always used, making it easy to understand what was done. Correct terminology and notation are usually used, making it fairly easy to understand what was done. Correct terminology and notation are used, but it is sometimes not easy to understand what was done. There is little use, or a lot of inappropriate use, of terminology and notation. Neatness and Organization The work is presented in a neat, clear, organized fashion that is easy to read. Extensive use of animation and design. The work is presented in a neat and organized fashion that is usually easy to read. Some use of animation and design. The work is presented in an organized fashion but may be hard to read at times. Limited use of animation and design. The work appears sloppy and unorganized. It is hard to know what information goes together. No use of animation or design.
