Topics:Number Sense,Multiplication

Grades:3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

GET HANDOUT

How Close to 100?

This has become one of our most popular tasks and we are hearing about all sorts of

creative adaptations. Some youcubians have made grids of 400 and added dice, others

have adapted it to let the grid represent 100%. Please post how you use this task with

your students.

Task InstructionsThis game is played in partners. Two children share a blank 100 grid.

The �rst partner rolls two number dice.

The numbers that come up are the numbers the child uses to make an array on the 100

grid.

They can put the array anywhere on the grid, but the goal is to �ll up the grid to get it as

full as possible.

After the player draws the array on the grid, she writes in the number sentence that

describes the grid.

The second player then rolls the dice, draws the number grid and records their number

sentence.

The game ends when both players have rolled the dice and cannot put any more arrays

on the grid.

How close to 100 can you get?

VariationEach child can have their own number grid. Play moves forward to see who can get

closest to 100.

MaterialsTwo dice

Animal Fact Sheet: Merriam's Kangaroo Rat

Identifying Features Kangaroo rats have long tails and big hind feet with four toes. They have large heads with big eyes and small ears. They are a sandy brown color with a white underbelly.

Adaptations The kangaroo rat is almost perfectly adapted to life in the desert. They can survive without ever drinking any water, getting needed moisture from their seed diet. They have excellent hearing and can even detect the silent sound of an owl approaching. Their large back legs enable them to jump up to 9 feet (2.75m) in one jump in order to escape predators.

Habitat Kangaroo rats inhabit a variety of desert niches. These can include open desert scrub, open grasslands, washes, sandy soils or creosote flats.

Range Kangaroo rats are found in the drier regions of the western and southwestern U.S.

Wild Status The kangaroo rat is not endangered. Its status in the wild is good right now.

Diet Kangaroo rats eat seeds from a variety of desert grasses as well as mesquite beans. On occasion, some kangaroo rats will eat green vegetation and some insects.

Predators Unfortunately for the kangaroo rat, it has many predators. There are many creatures out there who would like to make a tasty meal out of this small creature. Owls, snakes, bobcats, foxes, badgers, coyotes, ringtail, and your cat or dog are just a few.

Home Kangaroo rats generally live in underground burrows which they have excavated themselves. Often times the burrow is at the base of a shrub or bush. It spends most of its day underground sleeping, and comes out to feed at night when it is cooler.

Life Span The life span of a wild kangaroo rat is not very long, only 2-5 years.

Size Depending on the subspecies, kangaroo rats can weigh up to 4.5 ounces (128 g). Their body length can be 3.5 to 5.5 inches (8 -14 cm) and their tail can be 5.5 to 6.5 inches long (14-16 cm).

Quick Facts

• Kangaroo rats have pouches, but not for carrying their babies. Their pouches are on the outside of their cheeks and are used for carrying seeds back to their burrows.

• Kangaroo Rats don't sweat or pant like other animals to keep cool because that would cause them to lose water from their bodies.
