The basic supplies needed are 6 graham cracker halves (or 3 whole) and icing per house, additional candy to decorate, paper plates to build on, and empty milk cartoons will make construction easier.

This project was created for a consumer math class. It has the students selecting 3 stocks, and buying different amounts based on their budget (I chose budgets and had them draw from a hat). Students will then track the 3 stocks for a month (I have them back track dates on Yahoo! Finance's History tab), and then graphing their gains or losses. Students will then finish by summarizing their month.

Culminating Project that asks students to use a town using parallel lines with traversals; rotations, reflections, and dilations; the area of trapezoids, circles, and rectangles; and the sum of the interior angles of polygons. Includes the requirements, a rubric, and the worksheets to work through the problems.

This was created for a Consumer Math Course. It has students research, and create a budget for a Big Life Event (a wedding, a baby, or two vacations for a family of 4). It provides a list of essential items for each option, and leaves a few blank for students to add their own items. It also has them look at the different qualities for items, and budget in different situations.

This activity focuses on learning the similarities/differences of the thirteen colonies based on their region.

This task asks students to use their knowledge of volume in surface area to solve for one variable before applying that variable to another situation.

Cards you can use to make math stations where students can practice comparing and ordering fractions, decimals, and percents in isolation or mixed together.

This activity will help students have fun while practicing converting fraction, decimals, and percents. This includes fractions (not mixed numbers) and repeating decimals.

Here is an easy chart for students to learn more about their current representatives in the executive branch in the state of Georgia. No answer key as they change often. Can be easily adapted for other states.
