Description

I had to create a bulletin board with a rubric, standards, and mathematical practices for my fourth grade class. I saw a great idea for a bulletin board entitled: Think You Don't Need Math? I decided to take that idea one step further and turn it into a project for my students. The students would need to be responsible for choosing an occupation, coming up with a real life multi-step word problem in which at least one number had at least 3 digits. They needed to use at least two different operations; come up with at least two different equations with a variable and then solve. What a success! The students loved the project and it was a great way to learn more about the interests of each student. I created the project based off of the idea of the bulletin board that I saw via a Google Search. The product I am selling is the project that I created that corresponds with the bulletin board idea. I have added in various occupations in a larger size font that you can cut and use if you decide to create a similar bulletin board but the product I am selling is for a 4th grade project...not a bulletin board. The occupations in larger fonts are simply added in as a bonus if you choose to use the project and pair it with a bulletin board. There are various sellers on TPT that sell the actual bulletin board lettering for 'Think You Don't Need Math?' as a complete set.

I used this as part of our career day, where students dress and talk about what they want to be when they grow up. It fit perfectly and the students had fun completing it. Thank you!
