Product Description
In this differentiated project, students will use the given information and their budget constraints to choose how they will spend multiple days at the carnival.
Through their choices and planning, they will write expressions and inequalities to represent the different rides and height requirements, and write and solve linear equations for the ticket and food costs.
There are 3 different project options of varying difficulty levels, making it easy to differentiate and meet the needs of each student.
This is a fun way for 6th grade students to put their knowledge to work which gives real life practice and a fun application. Can be used with 7th graders as a review of expressions, equations, and inequalities before more complex equations and inequalities.
Math Skills Needed for this Project:
- Write algebraic expressions from words
- Write inequalities to represent real life constraints
- Write one-step equations
- Solve one-step equations
- Addition with decimals to calculate total costs
Included in the download: instructions/teaching tips; student handouts for 3 different project options; grading rubric with assigned tasks/point values; blank grading rubric, allowing you to create your own criteria/point values; and answer keys for each project.
