Math-Tastic Works

Concession Stand is a business simulation for grades 8 - 12. Students will open a business and use their math skills to complete order forms, update inventory, pay bills, keep a ledger, and open for days of sale. This project works with higher level Blooms Taxonomy and allows students to work together in groups.

Working in small groups (on Zoom) or individually, students will make 10 stops on a Saturday shopping trip with friends. At the different stops they will figure tax, percentage, discounts, central tendencies, unit rate, and probability. This is a great Friday Fun Review!!

Students will work in small groups (on Zoom) or individually, to figure discounts, tax, mean, median, mode, proportions, and ordering decimals. They will take an imaginary day off from school to travel, shop, go to the movies, go bowling, and eat out. Great for review end of online learning review.

Cartoons and pictures are used to introduce students to Pythagorean Theorem. They will see it in action then work different types of problems using pythagorean theorem. A great intro with the history of Pathagoreas.
