No words can express our deepest appreciation and gratitude to our dear Lord for giving us the strengths and abilities to make this project possible.

There also people who extended their supports and efforts for the completion of this math showcase, to our parents, for giving us moral supports and helping us financially, to our ever beautiful Mathematics teacher, Mrs. Jennifer Rubio, for her dedication in teaching us, to Kuya Jaycee, for sharing his ideas and concept of the game, and to our classmates, our competitors, for a healthy competition.

THE PROPONENTS

ABSTRACT

Arithmetic is the oldest and simplest branch of mathematics, used by almost everyone, for tasks ranging from simple daily counting to advanced science and business calculations. In common usage, the word refers to a branch of mathematics which records elementary properties of certain operations on numbers.

Scrabble is a popular word game and board game in which 2-4 players score points by forming words from individual lettered tiles on a 15×15 game board.

The showcase was made to help those students having difficulties in arithmetic like solving simple problems and computing sign numbers.

The game is entitled “Double Bag Math Scratch”. It is inspired by the game double bag scrabble with a twist of mathematics. We use the word scratch because it is synonymous to scrabble.

    Summary: Day 1 begins with a film that explains how our brains grow and change. After the film students are asked to do the same dot card number talk.

    Math Observations

    Classroom was set up into three separate group tables. Kids would move from work table to work table to complete different math activities. Before starting their groups the teacher first went thru math skills they had learned the previous week (adding the dots on a two sided domino). Then the teacher went on to this week’s concept (adding objects). She then read a story about a girl and a boy that wanted to see how many magnets they had together. The girl had 3 black magnets and the boy had 2 hand magnets. She then had the children add up (count) the total amount of magnets on the board. She then asked what they thought the math problem would be. They repeated 3+2= 5. She then asked if all students had understood why it was that and all answered with either the sign language symbol for I understand or yes.…

    Imagine if your beloved pets were trapped in an isolated, freezing cage where they are deprived of all necessities and are being injected with miscellaneous drugs. This is, unfortunately, the harsh truth for multiple animals who are being forced to be tested on for medical research and it must be stopped! There is no viable reason that this act should continue, as it is not only harmful, inaccurate AND there are alternative methods. You should be sitting here thinking this speech is unnecessary as is obvious that testing products designed for us on animals is unethical, cruel and inhumane. However, you’d be surprised that a survey conducted by the Institute of “Humane Research Australia” shows that 25% of Australians approve of testing on animals…

    Games are a fun way to learn and reinforce math skills. In this study, the old Bagatelle game is innovated as Mathopoly Bagatelle to enhance skills in writing equation of the line in slope-intercept form, determining the length of the sides of a triangle; and identifying types of triangle. Thirty (30) students were randomly selected. Two sets of assessment tools were prepared. The students answered the first set (pretest) before playing the Mathopoly Bagatelle and the second set (posttest) after the game. The time to finished the given tasks were recorded in minutes. The time difference in the pretest and posttest design was analyzed to determine if Mathopoly bagatelle reinforced the…
