Project #1 Individual Project
This week we are learning perimeter, area, surface area, and volume. Simple concepts, but ones I have found kids mix up. The first step in solving one of these problems is to know which one to choose. How else would you know which formula to select? I am going to create categories for each topic and let the kids dress up for Halloween and try to win that category.

Largest Perimeter
Smallest Perimeter
Largest Area
Smallest Area
Largest Volume
Smallest Volume
Largest Surface Area
Smallest Surface Area
Overall Most Creative = Student has to enter one of the above categories to be eligible.
On Halloween, Wednesday the 31st, we will take pictures of each costume and calculate the category they choose. I will put the winners on my website, they love that stuff.
Project #2 Group Project

I have no delusions of grandeur. I know my kids projects won't look like this, but I do know they will turn out great.
So pick your poison and have some fun with your kids.
