What educators are saying

I wanted to do something to review what my students were learning. They really enjoyed doing this project. They asked if I could find more like it. Will be using again!
I did this project with my 7th grade students and they loved it! In fact, my 8th grade students said that they wished that they could do it too because it would have helped them understand the concept better because it related to real life.

Description

Aligned to TEKS 7.13(E) calculate and compare simple interest and compound interest earnings CCSS.7.RP.A.3

Your students are ready for this STEM challenge! First, they search the internet for a vehicle they wish to "purchase." Then they use the question prompts to record the make, model and purchase price. They choose a financing option from the table and use their purchase price to calculate tax, interest and monthly payment. Last, students use all of these calculations to design a poster to illustrate their financial investment. Includes an easy to use yes/no rubric to outline grading criteria and a detailed example poster aligned with all grading criteria.

This works well as an activity or project after these Simple Interest notes.
