"I WANT CANDY"
This was designed to give students some hands on practice with scaling, ratios, and percents. Students will bring in a piece of candy (seeing as it was just halloween for us) or you can offer them a small selection that you purchase. They will then record the measurements of the wrapper and scale the wrapper to a "larger than life" piece of candy. They get a chance to be creative, create equivalence, and identify the percent increase in size of their work.

Angle Holiday/Christmas Ornaments
Looking for a little project to do in December? Have your students make holiday ornaments using their angle measure skills! I assign this as a small quiz grade, and this year I even assigned it virtually and had students send me photos of their finished projects. You could also assign it as a take home (maybe extra credit even) over the December break.
