Horus Eye Fractions The ancient Egyptian system of measures provides another example of number signs conceived as a coherent system. In the so- called “Horus-eye fractions”1, the designer of a numerical sequence linked its members also into a unified whole derived from a myth, just as in the series of numerals for the powers of ten. Gay Robins and Charles Shute describe this series of measures in their book on “The Rhind Mathematical Papyrus”, an ancient Egyptian mathematics text for apprentice scribes : “The common unit of volume, used for measuring amounts of grain or flour, was the hekat, approximately equal to 4.8 litres or just over a [British] gallon. (...) For smaller amounts, the hekat could be progressively halved to give /2, /4, /8, /16, /32, and /64 fractions. (...) [These ] are known as the Horus-eye fractions, because they were written with distinctive signs that resemble the parts of the eye of the falcon- headed god Horus, known as the wedjat-eye. The actual color of the pupil is black.

Students will be able to: Equipment: (i) Data collection - Measurements of a single tree 1. The diameter of a tree provides a measure of tree performance and is required for estimating tree volume. By convention, the diameter of forest trees is measured 1.3 metres above the ground. When estimating tree volume it is best to have a value of 'Diameter at Breast Height Under Bark' (DBHUB). 2. The height of young trees (up to 6 metres) is easy to measure using a height-measuring pole or a plastic pipe marked at 0.1 metre intervals, but as trees grow, measuring their heights becomes increasingly difficult. Total Tree height (Ht) refers to the vertical height from ground level to the tip of the tree. How to measure the height of a tree: 3. 4. 5. S.

You can use large numbers, however in practice numbers up to 100 work best for showing division properties. Three different shapes can be used, the original fish swim around and obediently arrange themselves to show number properties. However balls or cards cards can be used instead, these animate faster and are better for displaying numbers. Manual Mode The activity currently has the four different modes, we will start by taking a look at the manual mode. Triangular and Square numbers Below the mode selector you will see 5 buttons, start by clicking Tri the shapes will move and attempt to arrange themselves into an equilateral triangle. Now click the button labelled square the shapes will now attempt to arrange into a square pattern which again works since 36 is also a square number.
