The Circle’s Measure

Measure the middle and circle around, Divide so a number can be found. Every circle, great and small- The number is the same for all. It’s also the dose, so be clever. Or a dragon he will stay… Forever…

1. Use a measuring cup to find the diameter and circumference of at least 5 different circular objects. Discuss with your group how to record your data. Create a table.

2. Use the centimeter grid paper to make a coordinate graph. Use the horizontal axis for diameter and the vertical axis for circumference. Plot your data for each object your group measured on the graph.

3. Study your table and your graph. Look for patterns and relationships that allow you to predict the circumference using the diameter. Test your ideas on other circular object. Once you think you have found a pattern, answer the following questions below:

· What is the relationship between the diameter and the circumference of a circle?

· What does should Radius give Sir Cumference? How do you know this is the correct does? || Individual activity || Self-directed learning || Blog post (asynchronous discussion) || Post a Blog and discuss your findings.

Taking what you learned during the King Arthur’s New Table group activity, you will now help King Arthur’s contractors build new houses for his knights. Your group is the King’s budget consultants, and you are all responsible for identifying how many square feet of subfloor or plywood material is needed to cover the floor plan. Since times are tough within the kingdom, the King has instructed you to look at five different plans and advise him about the three least expensive floor plans to build for his knights. Since the appliances and fixtures are in a separate budget, you don’t have to worry about the cost for these furnishings.

​<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif;">Using the home wiki page, work collaborative with your group to decide which 3 floor plans will save King Arthur the most money. Show your work and publish your performance task on the wiki.

Respond to at least two of your fellow classmates on their calculations and recommendations. ||
