Math Grade 8: Measure the rise and run of your steps at home and determine the slope. Find three other steps and find the slope. You can measure the steps at school or the steps on the stadium seats at the ball park. Draw pictures of your results. (Angela Socorso)**//REFLECTION: I was not really pleased with this activity. I liked the activity but the student response rate was poor. Students didn't measure their steps at home. Next year, I am going to take the students around the building and outside to measure things with a slope like steps, bleachers, curbs, etc. I think this activity needs to be more teacher directed. After we do this, I think the chances that students will go home and measure their steps will be greater. With 99% of the students not doing the assignment, I must take the blame. I think they were confused on how to do it even though I showed them. They should have EXPERIENCED it first.//**
