The<BR/>counter <BR/>>girl took my $2 and I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and gave it to her.<BR/><BR/>>She stood there, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the<BR/><BR/>>screen on her register. I sensed her discomfort and tried to tell her<BR/>to <BR/>>just give me two quarters, but she hailed the manager for help. While<BR/>he <BR/>>tried to explain the transaction to her, she stood there and cried.<BR/>Why do <BR/>>I tell you this? Because of the evolution in teaching math since the <BR/>>1950s:<BR/>><BR/>> 1. Teaching Math In 1950s<BR/>><BR/>> A logger sells a truck load of lumber for $100.

His cost of<BR/>production <BR/>>is $80 and his profit is $20. Your assignment: Underline the number<BR/>20.<BR/>><BR/>> 5. Teaching Math In 1990s<BR/>><BR/>> A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is selfish and <BR/>>inconsiderate and cares nothing for the habitat of animals or the <BR/>>preservation of our woodlands. He does this so he can make a profit of<BR/><BR/>>$20. What do you think of this way of making a living? Topic for<BR/>class <BR/>>participation after answering the question: How did the birds and<BR/>squirrels <BR/>>feel as the logger cut down their homes? (There are no wrong answers.)<BR/>><BR/>> 6.
