Title: Teaching Math over the years...
Post by: Eyeball Chambers on April 24, 2009, 04:25:08 PM
1. Teaching Math In 1950s

A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of
production is 4/5 of the price. What is his profit ?


2. Teaching Math In 1960s

A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of
production is 4/5 of the price, or $80. What is his profit?


3. Teaching Math In 1970s

A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of
production is $80. Did he make a profit?


4. Teaching Math In 1980s

A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of
production is $80 and his profit is $20. Your assignment:
Underline the number 20.


5. Teaching Math In 1990s

A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is selfish
and inconsiderate and cares nothing for the habitat of
animals or the preservation of our woodlands. He does this
so he can make a profit of $20. What do you think of this
way of making a living? Topic for class participation after
answering the question: How did the birds and squirrels feel
as the logger cut down their homes? (There are no wrong
answers, and if you feel like crying, it's ok. )

LOL

I can see the beef with having it in Spanish. The main beef is the Mexican's, Central and South American's aren't making any effort to learn the english language.

If todays english speaking students can learn and be fluent in other languages more power to them.
