Quadrilateral Kite Experiment Project Congruent Angles & Perpendicular Bisectors
The purpose of the Quadrilateral Kite Experiment is to allow students to explore the characteristics of a quadratic kite and use those properties for flight. Students will construct a kite using wooden dowels, a plastic bag, and some string. They will conduct an experimental flight, recording their data and results. Students will then reflect on their results and the qualities of a quadratic kite that make it the choice shape for flight. They will then examine the results of others. Students wi

Fireworks: Trigonometry Inquiry Project
In this inquiry-based project, students will learn how to use basic trigonometric functions such as cosine, tangent and sine to find the missing side distances and angles of a right-angle triangle.Students will explore how fireworks of varying heights will affect the viewing angle and line of sight for the viewing audience.Students will design their own fireworks show that will include 4 different colours of fireworks. Each firework choice has a differing explosion height, which will slightly ch

Project and Rubric - Real World Math (The Pythagorean Theorem)
"In math class, you have learned about the Pythagorean Theorem. You have also seen examples of how the Pythagorean Theorem is used in ‘real life.’ For this task you will create your own “real life” Pythagorean Theorem word problem and model using the following steps..." Students will create and solve their own word problem, construct a 3D model of their scenario, and then write a reflection on their process and experience.

Creative Mosaic Adventure: Unlocking Artistry & Skills for Young Explorers!
This project is an ideal group Christmas activity that beautifully blends individual effort with collaborative execution through tessellations. It introduces ten pages of an innovative resource tailored for children and adolescents. These pages include two primary ones, each showcasing three uniquely patterned triangles , amounting to six triangles altogether. Complementing these are eight additional pages that function as exemplary models, demonstrating the assembly process of these triangles

2L Bottle Rockets with basic Trigonometry
The eighth grade science classes are in the middle of their “Rocket Project”. Students design and build water bottle rockets out of two liter and one liter soda bottles. This final project ties in benchmarks from Science and Technology, Scientific Inquiry, Scientific Ways of Knowing, Physical Sciences, and Earth and Space Sciences. Using basic trigonometry and acceleration due to gravity, students are able to calculate their rocket’s highest altitude while having a goal of maximizing the rocke

Sunrise / Sunset -- Trigonometry Project
This project needs to be assigned / completed before you teach them how to graph the sine and cosine functions. It can be used for everyone, even middle school students (though they wouldn’t be doing it for the sine / cosine aspect). Maybe I’m “old-school”, but I like to have my students do the first part of this project without any access to the Internet. The second part of the project requires them to research, so I would allow them to do that online.
This project is free and will alway

Water Balloon Launcher Lab
This lab is very fun and exciting! The bonus is you get to go outdoors. You will use a standard water balloon launcher to calculate the maximum height a balloon went after being launch as well as the velocity of the balloon. There are two parts to the lab. Part 1 involves collecting data and building a graph. Part 2 is calculating velocity and maximum height. ENJOY!!

The Two Day Soccer Math Project, GOOGLE DOC
The Two Day Soccer Math Project is exactly like it sounds. It was designed for an advanced middle school or early high school student (preferably a soccer fan) to complete in about two days and it contains quite a bit of rigor for something that the student will think is a fun change of pace. It's not a project that requires any pre-planning or supplies. It's just a great project that is a bit all-encompassing as far as math skills are concerned. They will use estimation skills, percents, measur
