Make Multiple Vectors Fun! Pirate Treasure Hunt - Physics, Trigonometry
This is one of my student’s favorite activities. Who doesn’t want to go outside and map out some vectors? It works well in physics or trigonometry for understanding how to add and subtract multiple vectors. 10 different maps are provided for student groups to make their way from a single point of origin to a designated, X-marks-the-spot, using compass headings of N, S, E, and W and specified distances. The groups all have a different path but end up at the same place. At the end, students dr

Backyard Project - Perimeter, Area, and Volume - Real World Applications
This project is the culmination of the perimeter, area, volume unit. It can be used as a task for the Common Core, or real world application of the measurement unit. Students estimate the cost to build a backyard, with a swimming pool, deck, shed, playset area, garden, and brick walkway. Using the calculations and costs associated with purchasing materials needed to construct the different parts, students will generate the total cost of the project, without labor. With the dimensions provide

Geometry:Concurrent Points GeoGebra Activity - Circumcenter & Incenter -w/ Key
Tired of teaching the same boring lessons on Circumcenter and Incenter? After years of using the standard book resources, I decided to create this activity that demonstrates some real-life applications of these concurrent points. This product includes 9 tasks (with complete answer key and screen shots of graphics). Each task will ask students to find a real life circumcenter or incenter. (While this product did not include any centroid or orthocenter problems, I left those options on the top
