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

Unit Conversions and Dimensional Analysis
A lot of the time, it's difficult to incorporate hands-on activities into math classes. This lab provides a great way for middle school students to apply their knowledge of unit conversions to a real-world application: house square footage and floor plans. First, students will find the dimensions of each room in their house using only their feet. Then, they will convert their measurements into actual feet. They will use this information to find the area of each room and create a floor plan using

Balsa Wood Suspension Bridge
This twist on the traditional Balsa Wood Suspension Bridge, is a long-term project for either an individual or a team to complete. It successfully meets half the standards of a semester of Geometry and Physics. From researching the methods of building a bridge and the physics of wave resonance and frequencies, students design and develop their own suspension bridges, made primarily of balsa wood, to hold (by dangling) as large amount of weight as possible.

Students will design a cone-shaped descent chute for a planetary landing craft to optimize stability and minimize speed in this engaging lesson. This activity lends itself to student scientists of many ages. Young learners will benefit from simply creating the cones and testing their effectiveness. Older students can use spreadsheets that they create to analyze the data on a much more sophisticated level.

Patterns in Polygons
This activity requires students to create diagonals in various polygons to determine the sum of the measures of the angles in those polygons and the total number of diagonals that can be constructed in each polygon. In addition to pattern recognition and developing formulas, students graph the data they collect to demonstrate linear and non-linear functions. Teachers can use this activity in an Algebra or Geometry course.
