Scholars will create a menu for a restaurant, we used this as an end of year project.
Scholars will:
-Add decimals to find the total of each section of their menu (entree, sides, desserts, drinks)
-Add decimals to find the total cost of their menu
-Create "combination plates" that offer a discount that will have scholars calculating different percentsand subtracting decimals
-Create a menu that falls within an area requirement
-Draw a diagram of their menu
-Create percentages based on the sect
This project can be used as a formative assessment or as an alternative project for students to show their comprehension of the vocabulary and angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. I have included the rubric, built into the project for student self-assessment and reflection before turning in their finished product. This assignment is aligned to the Common Core Standard 8.G.5 for eighth grade geometry. For additional differentiation, students could be challenged to draw an
Hi! I'm Abby. I've been a teacher for 8 years and I was recently looking for a final project where my students use their knowledge of angle types and measurements. My students love using their protractors and this was a fun, creative spin to do instead of a final formative assessment.Instead of finding a project, I made my own! The objective of this project is for students to work with a partner to draw angles, label them, design and build a creative board game using their knowledge of angle typ
I use this assignment as a quiz in my class. The assignment can be easily lengthened into a project. The assignment allows students to be as creative as they would like, but still forces them to use scale drawing principals. The assignment has no "right" answer but as a teacher you can easily see "correct" answers and gain lots of feedback about your students. I hope your class enjoys it as much as mine did.
Problem of the Month: Through fun, quirky, challenging word problems, students will apply their knowledge of perimeter and area to help set up a petting zoo. Students will tackle a series of problems with increasing difficulty. The level A problems involve calculating area and perimeter of common shapes, and the level E problems involve maximizing area of a compound figure with constraints. This is designed for middle schoolers - sixth graders will be able to engage with the problems, and even e
Students will design a park using grid paper. This project can be tiered to higher or lower levels. Project includes finding perimeter, area, andpercents. It also has a short essay and a budget component as well. Does not include a rubric.
Great end of year project where students have to develop an amusement park, create rides, calculate area, find simple interest, create a menu, find percent change, and present their project to the class.
Presentations are done in a shark tank manner, where the rest of the class picks their favorite park to help determine the winner!
Takes about 6 days in class working on it (block periods) or can also be done at home.
Presentations typically last 3 days (block periods).
Students are engaged,
Project based year review of 6th grade math using Florida B.E.S.T. benchmarks/standards. Includes Decimal Rules, Fraction Rules, Integer Rules, Numeric and Algebraic Expressions, Algebra Basics, Ratios, Rates, andPercent, Geometry, and Statistics.
Great end of year project for students to work on after state testing. Requires students to partner up and plan a theme for a restaurant, develop a floor plan, make a menu, calculate surface area, find percent change, create an advertisement, and present their restaurant to the class.
Presentations are done in class in a 'shark tank' manner where students are competing to be chosen as the winner. Classmates and the teacher vote to decide who came up with the best restaurant!

The Village Building Project requires students to build a model 3D village with specific buildings and resources. It also requires students to create a map of the village drawn to scale. The Village Building Project is perfect as a quarter-long out of class project or an in-class project that takes several weeks to complete. The project includes instructions on the project requirements, a rubric for easy grading, and a chart for students to fill out their math calculations in. The project re
This engaging Project-Based Learning (PBL) activity brings conic sections to life by having students explore how ellipses model real-world orbits. Students select a planet, moon, comet, or satellite and use research to gather key data such as eccentricity and orbital measurements, then create a mathematical model using the equation of an ellipse. They will construct and label a diagram, analyze how eccentricity affects the shape of the orbit, and present their findings through a visual project.
A great project for all kids of any age to learn logic, reasoning, and mathematics! The whimsical Laura Numeroff story of If you Give a Mouse a Cookie gives a logical step by step of actions one after another. Project is best given after the story is read first.
For younger ages: Have students write a story using hypothesis and conclusions.
For students in Geometry: Have students compare it to geometry. Best given when learning conditional, converse, and bi-conditional.
If you give a mouse a
The create your own coordinate plane picture project is a 3 or 4 class period assignment where students take a picture or logo and then they use ordered pairs to recreate the picture. This project guides the student through the process of creating, accessing, peer assessing, and finalizing their picture. Three rubrics are included, one for self assessment, peer assessment, and finally teacher assessment. I used this project in my math elective class and students love the differentiation comp
**THIS PROJECT IS ACCOMPANIED BY A 25-MINUTE VIDEO THAT ADVERTISES / DISPLAYS / HYPES THE PROJECT, ALONG WITH INTERVIEWS BY THE STUDENTS WHO CREATED THEIR PROJECTS (with hints, insight and suggestions).[Directly from the rubric sheet handed to students beforehand:] "MISSION: Greetings MATH-itect! Your goal is to create a 3-D model or poster of a historic building or any type of structure, and identify the various geometric shapes. In addition, you must also find the Area of one of your geometri
