Simple Interest - Notes and Project Mini Bundle

Aligned to TEKS 7.13(E) calculate and compare simple interest and compound interest earnings

CCSS.7.RP.A.3

Students take notes using the graphic organizer input page. Then, they practice calculating simple interest using the 3 real-world examples on the output page. These notes will be a valuable resource and great learning experience to add to your students' math interactive notebooks.

This could also be used as a center activity during math workshop or as notes for your Flipped Classroom. Answer key included!

Your students are then 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.
