Investigating How Estimating Lines and Angles Varies
Aim of Investigation: To investigate how the estimation of lines and
angles varies from each other, and how the estimation varies within
both genders. Angles and lines have been chosen, as they are
continuous data, leaving the survey to be more wide-ranged.
Hypothesis 1:The difference in angle estimation shall be more than
inaccurate than then length estimation. I believe this because the
awareness upon lengths is more common than the familiarity of angles,
within the everyday context.
Hypothesis 2: In correspondence to the first hypothesis, male angle
estimation shall be twice as close populated towards the correct
answer than the female estimation. This means that the measure of
spread will be grouped twice as close to the actual answer than the
female.
Introduction to Investigation: The concept of measuring length and
gradient is one of the norm in society today. Therefore, the skill
that is the measurement of these two units could be affected by
several factors. For my investigation, I plan to inspect the variables
of gender estimation and the difference between the two units. Lengths
and angles were not only chosen because of their familiarity amongst
the population, for me this is Year 10 boys and girls, but because of
the fact that both measurements are continuous data. This adds a level
of skill towards their estimation, as the answer can take on any
possible value. This differs from discrete data, as discrete data will
only take certain values.
A survey shall be conducted upon 30 subjects, containing 15 students
of each gender, from 3 different Year 10 Mathematics classes. The
survey will ask the subject to estimate the length of a line and the
gradient of an angle. To choose the students, I have used selective
sampling, as the total number of students is 60. As there is the class
average of 20, I will need 10 students, 5 girls and 5 boys, from each
class (as worked out from calculations below.)

Families and students in grades 6 through 10 may choose to attend and admission is by lottery. Student population is about 300 and there is no cost to attend this alternative public school that operates under the same student budget allocation as other district schools.
2- Then you must divide (/) by all the girls and boys in yr 7 = (30)
Small groups should not exceed five students. This gives the teacher the opportunity to focus his attention on the needs of each individual child in the group. This allows for the child to participate and not be a wallflower in the classroom.
In a class of 30 boys are 15 with the equal ratio of the girls who are also 15 in number .
The short story “Orientation” by Daniel Orozco is a unique story. Orozco never introduces the narrator or the audience. The story appears to be, just as the title specifies, an orientation for a person entering a new job. The story, however, delves deep into the lives of several employees throughout the story. The lives of these employees and their interactions become the most important part of Orozco’s work and the main character that is being spoken to becomes an unimportant observer in an intricate atmosphere.
My classroom consists of twenty students of different background. There are 12 boys and 8 girls. Twelve students are learning on a 2nd grade level, four are learning above level, and four are learning below level. The four students that are below level are resource students. They leave the classroom three times a week for three hours in persistent to resource instruction purposes. This week’s unit lesson will cover the material, objectives and curriculum of learning.
In 2013, Robin Thicke, Pharrell Williams and T.I. released “Blurred Lines” and it was a huge success in America and worldwide, peaking at number one on most top music charts and bringing in millions in revenue for them. Most people enjoyed the song for the catchy beat, or the mellow sounds of Robin Thicke’s voice, me included. But once you start to hear the lyrics more often, you start to actually listen and pay attention to what they are saying. After finally listening to what they are actually saying, and watching the extremely racy and disputable music video, you have one big controversy on your hands. This allowed for the making of “Defined Lines” by the Auckland Law Revue to critique and parody the song, to bring out the sociological impacts
The school operates on two separate sites that are approximately half a mile apart. I will be carrying out my research at the infant school site, in the nursery classroom. The school identifies 20% of pupils as having additional learning needs. Around 14% of pupils are eligible for free school meals. There are very few pupils who come from ethnic minority backgrounds or speak English as an additional language. There are also no pupils who speak Welsh at
With this school being an Elementary School specializing in Kindergarten through Fifth Grade, the students would be grouped with other children of their stature. Meaning they will be grouped with children of the same age and intelligence. There will also be limited class sizes, thus letting the teacher help any individual that may need some assistance.

Students will be raising their hand, and wanting to participate. They will also be actively figuring out #1 with me.
1. Instructional Context-My class includes 25 five and six year old kindergartners; 24 African-American students and 1 Caucasian student. I have 11 girls and 14 boys in my full-day kindergarten class where I teach language arts, math, science, social studies, and health.
We adopted a proper methodology for this project, we prepare the survey, questionnaire discussing with professor. After that we selected the target students to have the variety and all kinds of possibility. We interviewed people personally about what they feel and ask them question.
