Materials and Prep

  • Paper and pen for notes and calculations

  • Basic understanding of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division

Activities

  • Gaming Math: Calculate the average score of your last 5 gaming sessions. Use this to set a goal for your next session.
  • Motorbike Math: Calculate the speed at which you would reach your favorite biking spot if you were traveling at different speeds.
  • YouTube Math: Analyze the number of views on your favorite YouTube video and calculate the percentage increase in views over the past month.

Talking Points

  • Understanding Averages: "An average is a way to find a central value of a set of numbers. It can help us set goals and track progress."
  • Speed and Distance: "When we know the speed of an object and the time it travels, we can calculate the distance covered using the formula Distance = Speed x Time."
  • Percentage Increase: "Percentage increase is a way to measure growth or change. It is calculated by taking the difference between two values and dividing it by the original value, then multiplying by 100."
