2. On your own:
1. Look at the table, graph, and rules criteria carefully to make sure you set everything up correctly and got all the information necessary in Chunk 3
2. Look at the criteria for connections to ensure that you have added in enough additional information to put the math in context. 
3. Look at the criteria for technology/ visual presentation and create a visual presentation. As we want these to be printed and posted on a bulletin board suggested presentation tools would include:
1. Glogster (Video Tutorial)
2. Google Draw in Google Drive (Video Tutorial, another Video Tutorial)
3. Something of your choice similar to Glogster or Google Draw (think poster presentation, not slide presentation)
