"Transformer" Math ~ Graphing Exploration

Jack's first "work' of the day was to bring down ALL of his transformers.  Pretty cool way to start the school day :).  Then he sorted them into different categories,

1.Autobots
2.Deceptacons
3. Bot-shots
4. Launchers
5. Easy to transform
6.  Hard to transform
7.  Weapons



\



Then he graphed the results... with some playing and sound effects along the way.



He choose a different color for each bar to depict what he was representing in the graph.




His conclusions when all were graphed was, "Wow, I have a lot more Autobots than anything else!"
Mission Accomplished.


I have found that is it very easy to engage Jack in his work, when we incorporate the things that he loves or is currently interested in.  Making him move around the house, gets the "ants" out of his pants, so he will actually be able to focus on his "work".
