Last week we had to choose from 5 stations and do work on each station. I will elaborate on station 2.
Station 2 was all about exponential growth and exponential decay. This station used fish as a demonstration to show how the exponential growth and exponential decay works. A person had use a bag of M&Ms or Skittles and dope them on a plate. Then you counted the amount a recorded. Then you would put the M&Ms in a cup and dump them onto the plate. Any M&Ms with the M facing up were considered deceased. You placed them aside then repeated. Eventually there were no "fish" left. This was showing exponential decay. The other part of station two was to show exponential growth. You had to dump two M&Ms onto the plate and how ever many Ms were facing up was how much you added into the cup. Then you would dump again and keep adding. Eventually, all the fish we on the plate.
The URL to that fish picture is... interesting, but funny. I like the picture, it appears to be an interesting kind of fish... I like how you put an example of exponential decay and exponential growth. I also like how you elaborated on the two procedures, that was very helpful. I suggest though with your next blog post scanning over your post for grammatical errors though. Some of them are hard to figure out and read over.
ReplyDeleteI like the big ole fish you caught. Very impressive.
ReplyDeleteThe blog post was pretty good too. Very descriptive.
Also, I really like your title. It is very catchy and it makes me just want to keep chanting it over and over.
I really like the fish...
