  1. My Winter Vacation Math Curse Preface About the Creator E. H. enjoys reading, writing, listening to music and relaxing. She is the eldest of 3 children and adores her younger sister, R. [Most of the time.] • On the Friday winter break started our teacher gave us a math assignment for homework. She told us a vital piece of information “ You know, you can think of everything as a math problem.” On Saturday I started having problems…

  2. Saturday, December 18, 2010 My Math Journal • Today I was watching T.V., and a commercial came on for a new car. The commercial said that the car would go 31 miles on 1 gallon. So I wondered, how many miles would it go on 9 gallons?

  3. Sunday, December 19, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today I was watching a movie. We started watching the movie at 9:52 and took a 3 minute bathroom break halfway through. The movie is 1 hour and 30 minutes long. When did we finish watching the movie?

  4. Monday, December 20 2010 My Math Journal The Problem • This morning my mom went to find out how much longer we would have to pay back the mortgage. They said it was 180 months. How many years is that?

  5. Tuesday, December 21, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today my brother played a soccer season on the Wii. In his first game he scored 6 goals, in his second game he scored 1 goal, in his third game he scored 7 goals, and in his fourth game he scored 4 goals. What is the range, mean, median, and mode for this set of data?

  6. Wednesday, December 22, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • My friend came over at 4:01 p.m. on Tuesday and stayed until 10:44 a.m. on Wednesday. How long was she at my house?

  7. Thursday, December 23, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today we went to the Museum of Science and Industry. Each of my family members wanted to go to a different place. One wanted to go to the old fashioned ice cream parlor, one wanted to visit the rockets, and one wanted to visit the circus display. My brother was looking forward to walking on the cobblestone street. My sister wanted to look through the wavy mirrors. My dad wanted to enter in the side of the building. Which person wanted to go where?

  8. Friday, December 24, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today we went to Best Buy. At Best Buy we bought a Bluetooth device for $59.99, Call of Duty game for $49.99, a SpongeBob Squarepants DVD for $14.99, and the DVD Furry Vengeance for $16.99. The tax on all of these items was 9%. How much did we spend at Best Buy?

  9. Saturday, December 25, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • My Math Journal • Today I went to my family friend’s house. They had many different things to eat. They had 2 kinds of hummus and 3 types of crackers. How many combinations can be made from this?

  10. Sunday, December 26, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today I was watching a cooking show. The show said that the best way to cook the meat was by cooking each side individually. Each piece of meat is shaped like a cube and it takes 2 minutes for each side to cook. If there are 6 pieces of meat that need to be cooked, and each one is cooked by itself, how long does it take for all the meat to be cooked?

  11. Monday, December 27, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today I was playing my instrument and I thought about all of the possible combinations that could make up the song I was playing. The count was 4\4 which means that there are 4 beats in each measure. A measure is a section of music in which a number of beats can be played. There are 3 different kinds of notes that could make up this piece, The quarter note, which counts for 1 beat, the half note, which has 2 beats, and the whole note which counts for 4 beats. If there are 8 measures, and you can only use each note twice in each measure, how many combinations can be made?

  12. Tuesday, December 28, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today I was reading a book and I timed myself to see how long it took me to read a page. I got about 43 seconds. If there are are 255 pages in the book, then about how long will it take me to read the book?

  14. Thursday, December 30, 2010 My Math Journal The Picture • Today I was playing Just Dance. On one of the songs I scored 7,779 points. 29% of the scores I received were scored as a great. 49% of my scores were scored as an O.K. The rest of my score was made up of x’s. What was the percentage for x and what were the values for all of the percentages?
