Let’s Go Fishin’!!!

Dive into "Let’s Go Fishin’!!! Take Out the Pike & Put In the Algebra," an engaging Algebra I project aimed at students in grades 8-12. This simulation explores how proportional analysis is vital in real-world scenarios, specifically addressing the threat of Northern Pike to native fish populations in Lake Davis, California. Developed from the "Estimating Fish Populations" unit, this project helps students grasp proportions and equations while examining the impact of pike on trout and catfish, post-environmental intervention.

  4. INTRODUCTION:This is an Algebra I Simulation designed for grades 8 - 12. It involves Proportions and Equations, and has been developed from the Unit entitled "Estimating Fish Populations" (College Preparatory Math; Math 1, Volume 1). Fisheries Biologists have determined that the Northern Pike in Lake Davis near Portola, California pose a threat to the various trout and catfish populations. The lake has been drained down and poisoned to remove the pike in recent years. Due to environmental and health concerns (Lake Davis has been a major water source for the town of Portola), the California State Department of Fish & Game has hired your company to make a post-poisoning study of the various fish populations currently found in the lake.
