Getting to Know You: The Back to School Project

What better way to welcome students back to school? The "Getting to Know You Project" integrates fractions, decimals, percents, and data in an engaging and exciting lesson. You'll be the envy of your department on Back to School Night when your walls are covered in beautiful and mathematically rich projects. The students will enjoy the project so much they will forget they are doing math. Extensions adapt the lesson from grades four through high school. Compass and straightedge constructions can be incorporated also.
