Want a math project students will actually get excited about?

This engaging Real-World Math Video Project challenges students to discover, analyze, and present how math appears in everyday life through a creative video presentation.

Perfect for upper elementary and middle school classrooms, this project combines real-world application, critical thinking, collaboration, and creativity into one meaningful performance task.

Students become “math investigators” as they explore real-life examples of math concepts in the world around them—then create a video to teach others what they discovered.
