Measure, analyze, think
- Make your own recording
- Perform measurements with your model and discuss in your group what has happened.
Explore and modify
- Is addition part of multiplication? How?
- Is subtraction part of division? How?
- What happens when we subtract 3 from 2? Do you have other suggestions?
- Where are the limits of the calculator? Can you explain?
- Add different brick colors to add/subtract more than 1 to the sum at a time.
Present
- Prepare a short presentation for other groups. Tell others about your experiments with the calculator. Is there someone in the group who never worked with a regular calculator? Discuss.
