Looking for some real world application and fun while you assess student understanding? This project is a perfect blend of creativity, geometric concepts, and some real world problem-solving for middle school or high school students. Students will also use the internet and/or AI (quick tutorial included) to bring their ideas to life. Summary: Students will rebrand their high school; creating a new logo and color scheme, while creating a new mascot to lead school spirit. Along with the rebr

There are 7 custom, fun statistics projects included in this bundle...they are all taken from my custom Statistics and Probability workbook (also posted on TpT). All projects include rubrics and exemplars, forcing students to use statistical concepts to solve real-world problems while using AI and data research... Bell Curve - Students use Google Forms to create a bell curve based on questions they pose to their classmates. Boxplot - Students use data about their favorite movies to create custo

Contact me at MEDEIROSVINNY@YAHOO.COM for discounts or alternate resources... This is a section from my updated Statistical Reasoning and Probability in Sports workbook (2025), which is an introduction into some of the analytic measures used in professional sports. The section focuses on Bill James' Pythagorean Expectation, which was initially used in baseball, but now can be applied to any sport, at any level. This lesson includes background information, real-world examples, discussion, and mu

Want to test your students logic while teaching them about the z table? Looking for some real-world application of the z table, z-scores, or standard normal distribution? This activity gets the students involved by having them complete a Wonderlic Test and using their personal performance to introduce them to the concept of percentiles and finding percentage on the z table. Students will complete the Wonderlic, then follow the directions in order to find their percentile (z tables for both po

Have students take their understanding of transformations and apply it in a fun setting, Tetris! Students use the Desmos website to practice their Tetris skills using translation and rotation before working on three practice problems (one quite challenging).

This is a great filler activity for teachers looking for some real-world application and works for all ages. Students will explore the world of fantasy football, a multi-billion dollar industry that relies entirely on mathematic calculations, conversions, and projections. In this activity, students will use their knowledge of decimals, negatives, and conversions in order to calculate real-world statistics into fantasy football relevance. Both current and historical games/seasons are used, ke

This is an introduction and practice presentation for exponential growth and decay using real-world application. Students are first introduced to the idea of exponential growth in their daily lives, then given the formula to help solve everyday problems regarding depreciation, population growth, interest in a savings account, and much more. This is a great filler for the end of the year when looking to introduce basic exponential growth or looking for real-world value in your algebra class.

This worksheet uses real-world scenarios, allowing students to use the formula for exponential growth to solve relevant problems. Problems range from population growth, savings account interest, inflation, and even a "work backwards" problem that forces students to find the missing exponent. This is a great worksheet to use when introducing exponential growth.

This is a great resource that can be used for assessment or review for solving systems. Students are encouraged to use Desmos.com for graphing systems, then solve the other systems using substitution and elimination, including word problems.

This worksheet forces students to use their knowledge of area and extend it to complete some challenging problems using different shapes and real-world application, including purchasing flooring given a floor plan.

This basic percent worksheet can be used for homework, practice, or even an assessment. With a mix a standard percent word problems and real-world word problems, this worksheet is a great resource when teaching students the basics of percents. The real-world problems deal with tax, tip, discounts, and percentage of population.

Looking for some challenging activities while teaching volume? This worksheet contains three activities that forces students to use their knowledge of volume to solve real-world problems including: -Creating different shapes with the same volume -Filling a tank (requires knowledge of total surface area as well) -Filling a U-Haul

Looking for an activity where students use their knowledge of area and perimeter to solve a real-world problem? This worksheet forces students to find and calculate missing dimensions in order to calculate the amount and cost of materials (and labor) needed to finish the landscaping of a property.

Solving systems but in a pinch to find some word problems? Here are eight problems (with answers) you can use with some real-world application. Everything from ordering from a food truck, questions on a quiz, tires for bikes & quads, and filling different sized vehicles...

This activity gives students a chance to incorporate their understanding of volume and apply it to the real-world. Students will have to rearrange equations given specific data to find missing measurements and problem-solve. Students will also apply their knowledge of volume in order to solve real-world problems involving packaging and delivery. There are 'Extension' questions which force students to analyze and explore relationships between similar figures.

This is a great activity to show real-world application of area and perimeter in the world of sports. Students will use their knowledge of area and perimeter to fence and turf a baseball field; they will then use those calculations to find necessary materials on the internet and price out the job. There are also a couple of 'Extension' questions to challenge students regarding Pythagorean Theorem and the effect that scaling the field down to softball dimensions has on their calculations.

This collection is a great way to introduce basic addition and subtraction of positive/negative integers through the world of sports. Golf scores, NBA player Plus/Minus, and gaining/losing yardage in the NFL are used to show students application of negative integers. There are three main pages of questions for students to work through, culminating with a six-question assessment. Answer sheet included.

This workbook was created for a Sports Statistics elective...many of the projects were inspired by the projects in my Sports Statistics Workbook, which can be found in my store on TpT. This workbook is completely project-based, forcing students to learn as they progress through the projects. There are 16 projects in all, ending with a cumulative NBA franchise project that integrates most statistical concepts covered in a typical high school stats class. The projects include the following, com
