My students have been quite interested in what's going on in the world, specifically regarding the Amazon Rainforest fires. The resource provides an overview of the situation with both general comprehension and math questions asked. The skills covered include: Percents and Proprtions, Scientific Notation, and general mathematical reasoning. This can be a great extension, homework, or in class worksheet, or sub plan. I believe it is appropriate for 6th - 9th graders. An answer key is provided. Enjoy!
