Resource:Calculations From the Farm
Provider:PBS
Summary:Students perform different calculations related to farming
Description:"Students will perform a variety of calculations related to farming using conversions and area formula. Students begin by calculating the number of rows in a 120 acre field, the total length of these rows, and the number of seeds needed to plant the 120 acre field. By the end of the exercise, they're able to predict the total yield (in a corn crop) from the field."
