Description
Can't find a way to test your math students knowledge of any specific topic in a way that also ties together real life problems? Are you looking for an easy way for students to fill in their gaps? This application based project gives students a chance to apply their skills in an open ended project. Brainstorming templates are included but the math topic can be selected by students or by teacher so it can be used for any topic including inequalities, graphing, factoring, radicals and more! This is a quality performance assessment with two possible rubrics.
✅This is set up as a Quality Performance Assessment (QPA). This particular QPA was created by three math teachers, a special educator and reviewed by a health teacher, another math teacher and a science teacher at a QPA training in 2019. After being reviewed it was then taught and validated. Rubric has been edited to better assist the project.
⭐Skills Required:
- None
- Open ended project so students can pick their math topic or the teacher can assign it
❤️Resource is Great for:
- Geometry
- Algebra 1
- Project
- Summative assessment
- Competency based education
⭐Includes:
- Google Slide to present or print
- Project and rubrics
- Terms of use
Students will be given an open ended task that will give them a chance to show their knowledge on the given topic.
No answer key is provided because the task is very open ended. The theory behind it was that a teacher could take one their current projects and make it fit into a QPA by utilizing this document.

Math Modeling Summative Project
This project is designed to help you fully grasp the concept of using mathematics to solve real life problems. This includes finding the appropriate solution(s), identifying these problems in everyday life, drawing them, calculating their values, and weaving it all into an interesting, amusing or creative story!
Your task is to develop a story involving a real life application to model current math concepts (See below for an example problem). To support your story, you will need to carefully draw, use a photograph, a picture clipped from a magazine or downloaded from the Internet, illustrating the problem in your story. You will need to include all formulas, measurements and all of the steps required to come up with your answer for your story. Be sure to find the solution and state the solution on your poster.
Procedure:
Day 1: Hand out the assignment, read together and review all components. Share examples/exemplars and answer student questions. If needed for the group of students, hand out template and have students answer questions #1-6 on the template. Hand out a blank flow map for students to complete the beginning, middle to help them plan their story. Under each piece of the flow map, have students add their numbers to make a mathematical sentence (step #7).
Day 2: Teacher will check in with each student that they have answered all steps #1-7.
Students will review their work and decide what their final product will be (story, poster, slide show). If a student chooses a song or poem, they will need to reference either a book or poster that include the other elements. Students will make all computations to provide an ending to their story. Students will start their final product. Add illustrations to their product.
Day 3: Complete final project and prepare for class presentation.
Day 4: Presentations
