Yesterday, 4S had some time to sign up for squares to see who might get the lucky scores for end-of-the-quarter, halftime, and final scores for tomorrow's SuperBowl. The game is between our hometown team (The New England Patriots) and the Atlanta Falcons. This writer cares not to divulge an opinion/hope for the outcome of the big game ;)
Not sure I can explain clearly here, but if your initials are in the box that represents the score of the respective teams at the end of the quarters, then you win for that quarter. Extra prizes if you have the halftime and final score. If either team has a double-digit score, you look just at the ones' place. I don't get comments on this blog, but I'll try and post comments that reflect the winers after the game.
Oh, and we also made quick predictions for the final score!
No one needed to pick which team scored which amount, although at least one Patriot fan's confidence was clear in the final score prediction. Below, the student numbers and teacher initials are indicated with the score that she or he predicted.
Some ideas for ways we can award prizes were for picking exactly the...

Any other suggestions to use these numbers to award a prize? It was fun to find a couple extra math times on Friday to work with some of the ways sports events can create opportunities to look at numbers around us! Maybe next week we can look into Roman numerals ;)
