This is an assignment that walks students through creating their own mathematical scenario with an independent and dependent variable. Students will write the scenario, identify the variables, and create a table and graph. I have also included a rubric for grading. This could be used as a formative assessment to check understanding of independent and dependent variables, or as a more summative project.

This activity has students create their own problem that requires the Pythagorean Theorem to solve. It also prompts them to solve the problem and show all of their work. This activity can be used for all students or as an extension for those who are ready.
