  • After reading all your suggestions we decided to change and improve some ideas about our project.

    With your suggestions we decided:

    1) To change our rules and points in order to give opportunity to students with lower achievement at Math to compete equaly with the others;

    2) To use kahoots to challenge them;

    3) To have a final prize. However, instead of a Math book as suggested, we decided to give a smartband to each grade (7th, 8th and 9th). We hope that this wonderful prize can engage students even more in tha task!

    Final Rules:

    1. Each challenge (has 3 exercises):
    • Three correct answers:      140 points
    • Two correct answers:          90 points
    • One correct answer:            50 points
    • Did not make the challenge or no correct answers: 0 points

     

    1.  Scores in Math tests:
    • 0% - 19 %: 0 points
    • 20% - 49%: 100 points
    • 50% - 69%: 200 points
    • 70% - 89%: 300 points
    • 90% - 100%: 400 points

     

    1. Marks at the end of each school term:
    • Mark 1: 0 points
    • Mark 2: 70 points
    • Mark 3: 150 points
    • Mark 4: 240 points
    • Mark 5: 340 points
