For Halloween, Shorecrest Upper School students taking AP precalculus completed a "function model validation" activity using M&Ms. This new AP course offers our top math students the ability to dive deeper into the concepts taught in a traditional precalculus course. That day students investigated 3 separate models, used their calculators to perform regression tests, and selected the best fit model for each scenario. After the data collection portion of the task, they got to eat the evidence!
