Real Life Math - Where am I ever going to use this? End of year project
Have your students ever asked "Where am I ever gonna use this in real life?". Well, they'll be able to answer that questions after doing this assignment. In this assignment, students will research the math topic in depth including the mathematician who discovered it, where it is used in real life and how. This is great for an end of year, end of the quarter or extra credit assignment or just for a break in the action. Included in this 6 page packet are instructions/description of assignment
Discover a Mathematician Research Project
Discover a Mathematician Research ProjectEngage your students in cross-curricular studies with this Mathematician Research Project! This editable project can extend up to 11 days, but also can be simplified into 5 days based on the level of detail you wish your students to get into. In my classroom, students use all 11 days with a full MLA formatted paper, poster, and one day spent on a gallery walk! In this assignment, students will:Write a research paperCreate a PosterParticipate in a gallery

Project: Systems of Linear Equations (What's the Better Value?)
In this project, students will choose between three real-life scenarios. Each scenario involves two purchase options, and students will use systems of linear equations to decide what to buy. Scenario 1 involves planning a vacation, scenario 2 involves a cell phone plan, and scenario 3 involves buying a new car. Students must research actual prices to complete this project. They will support their choice using a system of equations, and they must demonstrate multiple solution strategies. A r

Discovering Exponential Growth and Decay
This is a student-centered discovery activity to introduce exponential functions in the form f(x) = a(b)^x. There are two activities included. The first activity is a model of exponential decay in which students have a cup of M&Ms and they dump them out and then eat the ones with the M facing upward. They repeat this process until there are no more M&Ms. The second activity is a model of exponential growth in which students decide between and model different payment options for the durat

Discovering Why We Flip the Inequality Symbol (and practice problems!)
This is a student-centered discovery activity (or warm-up) to introduce the reason as to why we flip the inequality symbol when multiplying or dividing by a negative. Students will examine how adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing affect the truth of an original inequality statement vs. the aftermath of using one of those operations.

Discovering Raising Power to Power Exponent Properties (and practice problems!)
This is a student-centered discovery activity (or warm-up) to introduce the exponent properties of raising a power to a power. Using mental math or a calculator, students will write out exponents in expanded form and then look for shortcuts to combine them instead of expanding them.

Mathematics Research Project
This is a great end of year research project for any math course at a multitude of grade levels! From start to end of presentations, this project took me two weeks to complete - I give specific dates for each goal and give a grade for completion of each goal. The points I gave are listed on the information sheet. I created this in Word and it can be edited to fit your classroom and your needs. Students are asked to research a famous mathematician, write a research paper and give a presentation.

Discovering Zero and Negative Exponents Properties (and practice problems!)
This is a student-centered discovery activity (or warm-up) to introduce the properties of zero and negative exponents. Using mental math or a calculator, students will fill in a table with the values for designated positive exponents with base 2 and base 10. Students will be prompted to look for patterns as they establish the zero and negative exponent properties.

Introduction to Linear v. Non-Linear: Exploration
This is a partner activity worksheet with 6 questions and an enrichment section for faster working students to help explore linear functions.
This is meant as an exploration to introduce linear functions with students having no knowledge on the subject. The students must examine definitions, graphs, and equations using devices to access that internet. Graphing calculators help as well.
Then students work on an application problem to bring this information together.

Discovering Multiplying Same Base Exponent Properties (and practice problems!)
This is a student-centered discovery activity (or warm-up) to introduce the exponent properties of multiplying same base. Using mental math or a calculator, students will write out exponents in expanded form and then combine two exponents through multiplication and look for shortcuts to combine them instead of expanding them.
