 * ==== · Show relationships between two quantities (e.g. distance & time) ====

 · Dimensional Analysis: Convert and compare measures (time, area, volume, distance)
|| ====== AF 4.2 Solve multi-step problems involving rate, average speed, distance, and time or a direct variation. MG 1.3 Use measures expressed as rates (e.g., speed, density) and measures expressed as products (e.g., person-days) to solve problems; check the units of the solutions; and use dimensional analysis to check the reasonableness of the answer. AF 3.4, MG 1.1, 2.4 ====== || 3 weeks ||

1.Students write several questions and request responses worldwide. Students than calculate the responses and determine unit rate in each county. Example: cost of a movie, 1 gal. of gas, a gallon of milk, - each group could choose a country to report back on with all of the conversions and comparisons. Then each group could report on the relative cost of particular items. Create a Google Form for people to report on. Send out requests via Twitter.======
