We cleaned out our notebooks of math papers from the term, so it will clean when Ms. Epperson starts teaching on Monday. Next we looked at the graph that we made about eating the red vines. We concluded that as we took more bites, the length of the red vine got shorter. We called this a graph showing negative correlation. We came up with other situations that might show a negative correlation, as well as situations that would show a positive correlation. We then figured out how big a normal bite might be (about 3 cm, for example) and did some calculations based on a formula that related length of red vine to the number of bites taken. Most seemed to get this after a little prodding.
