Project Based Learning: Math - Middle School - Cereal Box Project
This is a 6 week comprehensive Project Based Learning Unit that focuses on students redesigning the traditional Cereal Box. Students will use the Engineering Design Process as well as learn the background mathematical concepts to create a newer version of a Cereal Container that decreases the Surface Area of materials while simultaneously increasing the total Volume. This unit targets 6th grade, but can be modified to meet standards for 5th and 7th grade. NO PREP REQUIRED, just download and

Menu Creation- Operations with Decimals, Percents, and Area
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 percents and subtracting decimals
-Create a menu that falls within an area requirement
-Draw a diagram of their menu
-Create percentages based on the sect

City Planning and Design Using Parallel Lines Cut by Transversals
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

Math Angles Board Game Instructions (and Rubric/Turn-In Checklist!)
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

7th Grade Common Core Scale Drawing Assignment
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 - Petting Zoo Geometry
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

3 Point Perspective PowerPoint: How to Draw Boxes and a City
When art students understand how to use perspective, they will be able to recreate the world around them with a higher degree of success on paper. Three point perspective is extremely useful for drawing exterior scenes and architecture. To draw using perspective, students only need paper, a pencil, and a ruler or straight edge. This zip downloadable file includes four PowerPoint tutorials.
“3 Point Perspective Bird's Eye View Boxes” includes 28 slides. There are step-by-step written directions

Area and Perimeter: Triangles, Parallelograms, and Trapezoids Project
This is a project to use after teaching area and perimeter. It is aligned to Common Core 6th Grade Standards: 6.EE.A.2 and 6.G.A.1. Students find the area of a triangles, rectangles, squares, parallelograms, and trapezoids using formulas. Then students are able to creatively put them together to create a figure or design. They can then compare the area and perimeter of the whole constructed shape compared to that of each individual one. This should only take one class period to complete.
