ABSTRACTIn this middle school mathematics unit two imaginary

characters, Horatio and Portia, decide to make their fortune inQuincy Market (Boston, Massachusetts) eunning a Bull Market cart. Inorder to solve the problems that they encounter, they need to learnratio and proportion, map reading, estimation, area and perimeter,population sampling, problem solving, and the collecting andprocessing of data. Teacher notes at the beginning of each sectionindicate the math objectives, materials, and whether the activity isa reinforcement or an extension of a math skill. The unit is dividedinto seven modules that can be used either independently orsequentially. These are: (1) an introduction to Quincy Market; (2)the use of the ruler; (3) map exploration; (4) ratio and proportion;5) scale drawing; (6) perimeter and area; and (7) a simulation (inwhich the students run their business using the Bull Market Game or acomputer simulation).

FOREWORD

Mathematics is an increasingly important skill for understanding and appreciating thechallenges in our society. Yet the learning of these concepts poses difficulties for manystudents, especially as they reach the junior high/middle school years. At the same time,mathematics teachers are leaving their profession at a rapid rate, tired of using materials thathave not been revised to reflect changes in our society and its workforce. Clearly, a needexists to revitalize both the self-esteem and the teaching resources of those who havechosen this profession. The Regional Math Network aims to address these difficulties. Theproject, funded by the National Science Foundation, is sponsored by the Harvard GraduateSchool of Education.

The overall goal of the Regional Math Network is to invigorate individual teachersand to enhance the quality of the materials and techniques of those in the mathematicsteaching profession. To achieve this goal, the Regional Math Network provided 22 TeacherFellows from eleven school systems with a structured opportunity to collaborate with localbusiness professionals and university personnel in the development of innovative teachingmaterials and instructional strategies. The school systems represented in the project includeActon, the Archdiocese of Boston, Boston, Cambridge, Chelmsford, Hingham, Lexington,Somerville, Waltham, and the Carroll, the Tower, and the Buckingham, Brown & NicholsSchools.

The Regional Math Network also seeks to stimulate math teaching in the greaterBoston area. Toward that end, the Network sponsors seminars, receptions and meetings formath teachers and other interested professionals and students. The Regional Math Networkserves as a model of collaboration on several levels: among different schools in the region,between schools and local businesses, and between these parties and the University, whichprimarily serves as a facilitator and resource.

A fundamental objective is to produce supplemental materials that are engaging for earlyadolescents and to improve their interest and ability in problem solving. The TeacherFellows were organized into four project teams, each with a team leader and graduateresearch assistants. After concluding a needs and interest assessment within many regionalschools and districts, each project team selected a specific context that provided the basis forthe consideration of a major mathematical topic traditionally covered in the middle schoolcurriculum. These contexts include an ice cream factory, local sporting events, the solar andspace shuttle systems and Quincy Market, a local tourist and commercial area. To betterunderstand the context, teams conferred with members of the local business community andworked with students from Harvard's MidCareer Math & Science Program, former businessprofessionals studying to become mathematics teachers.

Page 7: DOCUMENT RESUME ED 286 721 · DOCUMENT RESUME SE 048 379. Quincy Market. [A Product of] the Regional Math Network: A Teacher Invigoration and Curriculum. Development Project. Harvard

Each of these four context areas is linked to specific mathematical topics. While thisemphasis does not exclude other related topics, teachers seeking materials on a particulartopic may choose to work with a specific unit. The topics of emphasis include:

!ce Cream - FractionsMath/Space Mission - Estimation, Geometry and Relational Concepts

Quincy Market - Ratio and ProportionSports Shorts - Decimals and Percents

All four of the units include a common emphasis on problem posing and problemsolving. Many of the activities are open ended, encouraging students to pose their ownproblems for solving. Other themes and topics common to all of the units stress skills ofestimation, graphing, polling, reading and interpreting charts, calculators and computerapplication and mental arithmetic. All of the materials stress realistic, mathematicalapplications that are accessible and motivating to middle school students.

Each of the units contains a variety of teacher and student resources. Theseinclude teacher notes and teaching suggestions, student pages, answers, activity cards,transparency masters, manipulative materials and classroom games. Additionally, theQuincy Market unit contains a computer disk suitable for any Apple computer.

These materials were written by teachers for other teachers to use. Hence, thematerials and format are designed with a teachers needs and constraints in mind.Comments about these materials are welcomed and may be made by writing to ProfessorKatherine K. Merseth, The Regional Math Network, Harvard Graduate School of Education,Cambridge, MA 02138.

HORATIO AND PORTIA

A Mathematical Adventure

Introduction

Welcome to the world of Horatio and Portia, two imaginary characters who hear aboutQuincy Market and dedde to make their fortune running a Bull Market cart. They have allsorts of adventures and mis-adventures in the process as they use maps to find out how toget to Quincy Market, take surveys to determine what to sell, and finally, run their cart.

Horatio and Portia constantly need math skills to solve their problems. They learn ratioand proportion, map reading, estimation, area and perimeter, population sampling,problem solving, and the collecting and processing of data.

Students who have used this unit in its pilot form have found it both fun andchallenging, and we expect that your students will, too. They will use math because theyneed it to solve interesting and real problems that spark their imagination.

To make this unit easy to use by teachers who have many demands on their time, wehave provided a variety of already prepared or easy to prepare materials. The TeacherNotes at the beginning of each section indicate the math objectives, materials needed,and whether the activity is a reinforcement or extension of a math skill.

We have divided the unit into seven modules. Each can be used independently, butthe story line and the mathematical ideas flow best when they are used sequentially. Themodules are:

1. Introduction to Quincy Market2. Ruler3. Map Explcration4. Ratio and Proportion5. Scale Drawing6. Perimeter and Area7. Simulation

Each module consists of 2-3 class activities and additional activities which can beused to reinforce or extend the topics presented in class. Every effort has been made topresent material in a variety of ways and on a variety of levels. You will find individual,group and class activities. Material is presented concretely, visually, verbally, andnumerically.

Teachers who have access to a computer for class use will find that the unit providesexcellent opportunities for introducing students to real-life computer applications. Thedata which Horatio and Portia gather can be organized using a data base. In addition,their cart's inventory and financial reports are perfect for spreadsheet applications. Wehave included a computer game developed for this project, T-Stop Sales, which simulatesthe Bull Market cart business. The program will run on any Apple II computer.

OVERVIEW OF THE UNITS

Introduction to Quincy Market: This unit, which introduces the student to Quincy Market,provides a variety of alternatives to the teacher. A field trip (guidelines included), or aposter of Quincy Market which can be colored and displayed to stimulate class discussioncan "set the scene".

Students are introduced to Horatio and Portia, who have just found a flyer announcinga sales opportunity at Quincy Market. Students read and study the flyer andaccompanying scale drawings to glean facts about the market and to make decisionsabout potential sales opportunities.

Ruler : Students construct their own rulers and then use Quincy Market Bull Cartinformation to solve puzzles which require careful measurements. A map of a section ofdowntown Boston is also included which requires measurement and problem solving.

Map Exploration: Students use maps to explore metropolitan Boston. Students locatetheir own communities, Quincy Market, and other points of interest. They study scalecoordinates, linear measurement, and distance within a circle of specific radius as theydiscover a wide variety of information about Eastern Massachusetts. The state mrpextends their map reading skills and knowledge of routes, distances and scale.

Ratio and Proportion : Horatio and Portia have to make important decisions about what tosell, how much to charge, and where to locate their cart. Students help Horatio and Portiato make predicitions using actual figures from Quincy Market shops. They take their ownsurvey to determine what they would sell. Teachers with access to a computer may havestudents record and analyze their information using a data base.

This unit incorporates many mathematical objectives including generating data fromtext and maps, population sampling, ratio, proportion, survey techniques, data collectionand analysis, and problem solving.

Scale Drawing: Students use the scale drawing of Quincy Market to construct aclassroom display. They then construct three dimensional models el the Bull Market cartsand enlarge pictures of a crow and a grasshopper to include in the display.

In this unit, the students are using their knowledge of ratio and proportion, linearmeasure, scale drawing, and area and perimeter to solve real problems. Since this is aclass project, students must depend upon one another for accuracy.

Perimeter and Area: Horatio and Portia need to know about perimeter and area to solvesome of their problems. They develop an intuitive understanding of these topics as theyexplore Quincy Market. For example, they discover how many carts it would take tosurround Quincy Market, how many people can fit into a small area, and project theseanswers onto larger areas.

In this unit students will use their knowledge of perimeter and area to make projections. about Quincy Market.

SiMUlatiOrk: Students finally run their cart!! We have provided two methods of achievingthis. In the "Bull Market Game", the class (or small groups) compete to make the greatestprofit at the end of the week. The teacher who has access to one or more Applecomputers can use the program specifically designed for this unit, "T-Stop Sales". In thisprogram, students try to beat Sloppy Joe, a lazy business person who also runs a tee shirtcart. They can beat him only if they order carefully and price wisely. Both options requireproblem solving strategies and provide a review of basic math skills.

Students also learn to keep business records either by hand or using a computerspreadsheet application. They complete the project by finishing Portia and Horatio'sStory.

Teacher NotesQUINCY MARKET FIELD TRIP

A field trip to Quincy Market provides an excellent introduction to this unit. Students not only have anopportunity to "sample the flavor of Quincy Market, they also have an opportunity to expand their knowledgeof Boston history through a trip to Faneuil Hall and to learn how to do some real "data collection" as they gatherinformation about Quincy Market. A trip must be carefully planned, however, so that students gain maximumbenefit from it. Some important information to help you plan your trip is included below:

nest time to visit: October to May (least crowded)

Transportation:

Sri:Restrooms:

Guided Tours:

Chaperones:

Nearest T-Stop is Haymarket. Parking is very limited.

None, other than food and transportation

In basement of rotunda, very limited.

None of Quincy Market, but the National Park Service providesguided tours of Faneuil Hall

One for every 6 to 10 students if you plan to have students collectdata

pre-Field Trip Class Preparation:

Discuss Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall:Their history (brief outline in appendix)Location (use the T-Aid map)Layout of shopsdifference between stall, Bull Market, and store (use diagram)

Brainstorm about what students should look for:Location and type of food stallsLocation and type of Bull Market cartsLocation of grasshopper (weathervane on Faneuil Hall)Location of bull (weathervane on Quincy Market)Number of salespeople at each standHow weather affects salesHow many geometric shapes can students findWhich is the best location for a Bull Market cartWhich is the most popular cart, food stallHow do carts store their supplies

Assign spec ifictasks to each group:Make a list of all the food stallsMake a list of all the Bull Market cartsCount the number of pieces of pizza sold in 5 minutes (specify which 5

minutes and compare to another 5 minute period at a different time during the day)Count the number of ice cream cones sold in 5 minutesCount the number of people who enter the west door in 5 minutesEstimate the dimensions of Quincy Market

Follow-Up (homework, projects, etc.)

Sketch a model of your favorite cart

Draw a sketch of Quincy Market with the layout of stalls and carts from your notes

Write an article on Quincy Market for your school or local newspaper

1. Calculate distances using scale measure.Have the student:

a. Give the scale measure of the map (1" = 2 miles).b. Measure approximate mileage between two towns by measuring from the first

letter of one to the first letter of the other. Explain that we have chosen thismethod because It is well defined, but the method can be misleading. Is it reallyonly one mile from Belmont to Arlingtonshould we measure from center of townto center of town? Can we tell the center of town from this map? Can anyonethink of another accurate method?

*9. Your town to other towns.*10. Your town to Quincy Market.

2. Determine distance using a radius and make a chart. (optional)Review the meaning of the term radius and teach students how to determine towns

within a specific circle using transparencies, string, or compass.Have the student:a. List the towns within a 5 mile radius of Winchester and record.

(Lexington, Arlington, Belmont, Medford, Malden, Melrose, Stoneham, Woburn,Burlington)

1. Arrange students in groups of 4-5. Give each group a map. Note that now studentswill measure from the centers of towns, not from first letters of names.

2. Give each group the same crow card. The group decides using the map where thepush pin should be placed.

3. Choose a group at random to place the push pin on the bulletin board map. Thatgroup assigns a member to go to the bulletin board.

4. The other groups verify that the push pin has been correctly placed. If the pin wasincorrectly placed, another group may try. Points should be awarded for correctplacement and subtracted for incorrect placement.

1. Introduce the concept of a ratio as a comparison of two quantities using the "YourRatios" chart (2 out of 3, 2 to 3, 2:3, 2/3).

If class size is odd, you may choose to:add yourselfadd imaginary studentsuse calculators

For school and town populations, you may choose to use rounded numbers.

2. Reduce ratios of larger numbers, if possible.

The ratio of a vote of 140,000 to 200,000 is equivalent to the ratio of a vote of 7to 10.If 400 out of 1000 people but ginger ale, this ratio is equivalent to 2 out of 5people buying ginger ale.

Simplify some examples from the chart.

PORTIA: Boy, it's certainly crowded in here!! I can hardly move.

CROW: Did you know that between twelve and fourteen million people visitedFaneuil Hall Marketplace last year?

GRASSHOPPER: No! Come on!! That's more people than visited Disney World lastyear.

PORTIA: It's perfectly obvious it's a reasonable estimate. In the last 15seconds, I counted 16 people coming through that door. That's 64 ina minute. Wait a minute!! Where's my calculator?? Sixty-four times...

Did Portia estimate correctly? Check her figures.

Topic/Objective

Survey techniquesRatio, proportion

Materials

Overheads of:Bull's Eye View of the Carts

Portia's Survey

During class:

1. Discuss cart locationi and products sold at Quincy Market.Locate selected carts on overhead.Use scale drawing on bulletin board to identify specific locations on overhead(i.e. rotunda, doors, stairs, selected restaurants).

2. (Optional) Use these facts to generate discussion of carts:More than 1,000 different products are sold.Only 1% of the carts do not succeed.Cart rental is $175 to $250 per week.4 to 5 applications for carts are received each week.There is often a one-year waiting period to get a cart.New carts have a two-week probation period.

3. Introduce the idea of a survey using overhead of Portia's Survey.

4. Take class surveys.on: favorite ice cream, favorite pizza, etc.

5. Explain that we use the ratios determined in a survey (eg. 10 out of 30 students in theclass like chocolate ice cream) to make predictions about a larger group usingpropodions. Explain that in some situations proportions give us a good estimatebut only if the sample of students has similar tastes to the largergroup.

6. Explain that in other situations our predictions are much more accurate (e.g., on amap, if the scale is 1" = 3 miles and the distance from Cambridge to Lexington is 2", wecan accurately RA= tha, distance will be 6 miles).

7. Discuss "How Will You Make Your Fortune" with students. Have them complete this forhomework.

Topic/Objective

Scale drawingLinear measurePerimeter, area

Materials

Graph paper, rulersScissors, paper

Direction cards ( per store)Construction paper, tape

Graph paper - included in packet(6 blocks per inch)

Pre-class preparation:.

Review scale drawings of Quincy Market; determine scale appropriate to display area(e.g. if 9' are available, use a 1" = 6' scale); cut up cards and review them; position theoutlines of Quincy Market using the dimensions listed below.

During class:

1. Use a sample card to show students how to determine the correct scaled dimensionsfor their shop.

Example: Cardoos 6' x 24'If 1" = 6', the scaled dimensions of Cardoos would be 1" x 4".

2. Each student selects a card and computes the scaled dimensions for that store.

3. Then, each student draws his/her shop on graph paper using correct dimensions.Using the graph paper as a guide, students then transfer this shape onto constructionpaper. Each shop should be named and may be decorated if there is time.

4. Discuss the floor plan with the students. Plot the location of the sample shop. Eachstudent locates his/her shop and positions it correctly.

CONSTRUCTION OF BULL MARKET CARTTopic/Oblective

Scale drawingLinear measurePerimeter, Area

Materials

Posterboard or oak tag(1 1/3 pieces of 8 1/2 x 11 per cart)

1/4" metal fastenersGlue, compass, scissors

Pre-class preparation:

Construct sample cart; gather materials (posterboard or oak tag); duplicate cart design on oaktag (optional)

During class:

1. Oak tag: If oak tag is used and cart design has been duplicated on oak tag, students will beready to cut and assemble their carts immediately.

Posterboard: Instruct students to paste their designs onto the posterboard before cutting andassembling carts.

(Students may be encouraged to work in pairs so they can assist one another)

2. After the students have assembled their carts, have them compare the dimensions of theirmodel to those of a real cart (scale:1" = 1')

Suggested questions:What is the length of the rectangular display part of your cart?What will the length be on the real cart?What is the width of this display on your cart? On a real cart?What is the diameter of the model cart wheel? Of the real cart wheel?What is the ratio of these dimensions?What is the area of the model cart wheel? Of the real cart wheel?What is the area of the rectangular display on your cart?What is the area of the rectangular display on the real cart?What is the ratio of these two areas? Why is it different from the ratio of the

length of the display areas? (the square factor is introduced)

After class

Compare the volume of the top tray of the model cart to that of Extensionthe real cart. What is the ratio of these volumes?

Choose an item to sell from your cart. Name your cartappropriately and decorate it. You may even stock the cart.Draw all items to scale.

* Construct a full-size cart. The full-size cart is 3' by 6'(use the scale drawing to construct it). Appliance boxes(e.g. refrigerator box) would be useful. Double wheelswill give added support. A roof might even be added.(Note: this introduces square and cubic factors)

HORATIO: I wonder how far the cart moves when the wheel turns exactly once?

PORTIA: It's perfectly obvious to me that we need to measure the circumference of thewheel and compare our measure, in some way, to the diameter of the wheel.

HORATIO: Circumference!! What's that?

PORTIA: Circumference is the perimeter of the wheel.

Portia and Horatio did some measurement and put the results on a chart. Complete thechart by finding the indicated measurements and doing the necessary calculations.(HINT: A cals-Lgator could- make this easier).

Find 5 other circular objects to measure and complete the chart.

Poor Horatio! He still thinks X = apple, but you know 7t = 3.14 (well, almost!). Find thecircumference of the following using the formula C = 21d.

1. A cup with a diameter 4".

2. The top rim of a flower pot with diameter 6".

3. The bottom rim of a lampshade with diameter 12". What is your answer ininches? In feet?

HOW MANY ROTATIONS, HORATIO?

HORATIO: I think I'll push this cart around Quincy Market and countthe number of times the wheel turns.

CROW: Remember, Horatio, the Quincy Market building is 50feet wide and 555 feet long.

GRASSHOPPER: An estimation is good enough for me!

PORTIA: Does anybody have a calculator?

Find out how many times the wheel turns when the bullmarket cart is pushedaround the perimeter of the Quincy Market building.

Why might Horatio's answer be different from Portia's?

Are there any accuracy problems here?

Area of circle(estimation)

Materias

Graph chalkboard, 1" graphpaper (3 pieces per student),Compasses, String (2 feet)

During Class;,

1. Distribute graph paper and compasses to each student.

2. Brainstorm with students to generate methods for approximating the area of a circle.

3. Have students draw a circle with radius 3" on their graph paper and count thesquares. (Approximate partially covered squares.)

4. Repeat same procedure with circles of 1" and 2" radius.

5. Draw circles of radius 4" on chalkboard. Ask students to brainstorm how they woulduse their graph paper to find the area of this circle. (Hint: students should drawsemicircle on graph paper.)

6. Introduce "A Big Slice in the the Life of Horatio".

Discuss meaning of a 16" pizza. (Hint: radius = 8").

Show students how to draw a circle using string. Suggest that students draw theircircles on newspaper or a brown paper bag. Have students use their graph paper forestimating area.

A BIG SLICE IN THE LIFE OF HORATIO

HORATIO: I'm starved! I want a large 16" pizza.

PORTIA : That's more than twice the size of the 10" pizza! You'll neverfinish all that, Horatio!

HORATIO: It's only 6" bigger!

Portia and Horatio are not using thesame type of comparison. BOTH ARERIGHT! Can you explain why?

Construct circles of diameter 10" and 16" and estimate carefully the area ofeach circle. Bring your circles to class and be prepared to explain your methodof estimation..

During Classz

1. Discuss methods used by students to approximate the area in "A Big Slice in the Lifeof Horatio".

2. Use the parallelogram method to help students vizualize the area of a circle.

1111/1/L1/2 of circumference

For a parallelogram:

Area = (base) x (height)

Area = (1/2)Cr

Area = (1/2) (nd) r

Area = (1/2) ir (2r) r

Area = irr2

3. Have the students cut the circle into eight equal slices and form a parallelogram.This intuitive approach leads to the actual formula.

4. Use the formula to calculate the area of the 10 and 16 inch pizzas. Compare theresults with previous estimations.

5. Have students solve additional examples. Stress the meaning of r2.

BULL MARKETGAME

Materials Needed: Green Bull Market cards 5 1/2" x 41 /4", Bull Marketscoresheet

DIRECTIONS: This game is based on the BULL MARKET at Quincy iviarket. The scoresheet presents a one week simplified simulation of a T-shirt cart. The game may beused by an entire class, small groups or individually. Since directions on some cardsvary, based on the price of T-shirts and the placement of the cart inside or outside,several students could use the same five cards for a week but have different profits.

1. Shuffle the deck ; cards and put them face down.

2. Fill in your name ,t1 the score sheet and fill in the starting amount. This shouid be$3,000 at the beginning of WEEK #1 and the profit or loss carried over for any otherweek. Also, note all carts pay a $20.00 storage fee each week.

3. Choose inside or outside position for your cart for the week and enter the appropriateamount.

4. Order the number of T-shirts to keep the stock at 600. Your price per T-shirt is $4.00.

5. Choose a selling price from $10.00 to $15.00 for the T-shirts for the first day of theweek.

6. Take the top card in the pack and write the % (up or down) in the appropriate column.Calculate the number of T-shirts sold based on a normal day of 60 shirts sold.

e.g., Sales up 10%10% of 60 is 6

60 + 6 Sales down 85%66 85% of 60 is 45

60 4515

7. Put the number of T-shirts sold for the day in the appropriate blank and calculate thetotal sales for the day.

8. Choose a price for T-shirts for the next day. Continue the same process for the week.

9. At the end of the week find the total number of shirts sold for the week.

10. Find the total sales for the week.

11.To calculate total profit for the first week subtract the $3,000 you started with from thetotal sales. Carry this amount to the start of the next week.

NOTE: Don't forget at the beginning of each week to readjust your T-shirt order to keepinventory at 600.

T- STOP SALESComputer Simulation

Extension

T-Stop Sales is a computer simulation which will run on any Apple II

computer. The program simulates the sale of T-shirts at a Bull Market cart

for 1 month. Students run their cart in competition with Sloppy Joe's T-

shirts. Sloppy Joe is a lazy businessperson who always orders the same

number of T-shirts and never changes his prices.

The goal of the game is to beat Sloppy Joe by ordering and pricing0 carefully. Students use problem solving strategies and accurate math

calculations to win the game.

SUPER CHALLENGES!!

1. How big is 1,000,000? How can you communicate this to someone else?

2. You run a T-shirt cart and must make some decisions concerning staffing,pricing, etc. How can you gain maximum profit?

-What are the patterns of sales--when are they heavy, light?-When does the line of customers require a second salesperson?-What should the price of T-shirts be to minimize change and maximize

a desirable sounding price?

3. What is the "best" route from your home to Quincy Market? How do youdefine "best"? (Some ideas: m!nimum average time, most reasonablyconsistent time, traffic patterns, etc.)

4. Design a parking garage for Quincy Market.

5. What is the best location for a T-shirt cart in Quincy Market?-Should it be inside or outside?-How crowded should the area be?-What other stands should it be near?
