Computer Research for Fourth Grade Common Core Math Standard 4.OA.3

Here is a research project that can be completed in the computer lab for:  Math Standard 4.OA.3

Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.



Go to http://www.mcdonalds.com/us/en/full_menu_explorer.html which shows the entire McDonald’s menu.


When you hover your mouse over a food item you can view it's  nutritional information.

 Students use this information to write a multistep math problem and it's solution.  Students print their problem, and then exchange problems with other students to solve.

Smiles,
