I have taught 33 years in the Canton Union School District in Canton, IL. My current class load is Geometry, and dual credit courses in PreCalculus, Calculus and Statistics.
This project is for Calculus after students have mastered Optimization using derivatives. It is a hands-on activity in which students will find the minimum surface area of different geometric objects given a specific volume and then build the object. It includes worked out solutions for multiple geometric objects so that every student can do a different object. It culminates with a day to fill the objects with candies to see how close their object is to the set volume. Great project!
