The Weird Number - Natural Numbers or Fraction Activity
The Weird Number video is a quirky way to incorporates writing in math, as well as individuality and creativity. Students watch part of The Weird Number video; stop at 3:31, just after the cloak is pulled from the unknown number. Show the clip several times, allowing students to jot down details, such as character names and descriptions, setting details, etc. After students have ideas and details down, they finish the story by writing what happens next. In order to enhance the story, students also make a visual, by depicting a scene from their original story.
