Household Budgeting Game
This is a financial literacy resources that students play either on their own or in groups. In the game, they must meet all their basic needs including housing, food, transportation and the ever-important cellphone. The Google Sheet simulator tracks their monthly spending and tracks their short-term happiness based on the lifestyle choices they make in their budgeting. It also has students track their savings which is a great followup to the compound interest activity also available in my store.

Financial Simulation - Wegnerville
This financial simulation is designed to be performed in the classroom over a period of 4 weeks. Each week is designed to add in a new business aspect. By the end of the simulation, students should understand stock trading, how to fill out an application, loans, business management and more. This should only take about 10-15 minutes every day, so other content should/can also be taught while completing the financial simulation.

Using Proportions to Estimate Fish Populations Simulation: Capture - Recapture
Show your students how proportional thinking is used by scientists to estimate wildlife populations using a capture - recapture process. In cooperative groups, students will use a lake (paper bag) full of fish (beans) to capture, tag, recapture, and record their findings. They will use their data to write proportions and estimate the total number of fish in the lake. Students will use easy-to-follow instructions on an editable Google Slides presentation and record their data and work on an in

Similar Triangles Digital Exploration | Triangles Task | Distance Learning
If you are doing distance learning, this geometry investigation is perfect for exploring the "Angle Angle Triangle Similarity Postulate (AA)." Students ultimately come to understand that when two angles of one triangle are congruent to two corresponding angles of another triangle, then the corresponding side lengths are proportional. Thus, the triangles are similar. If you want to stick with the "Angle Angle Angle Triangle Similarity Postulate (AAA)" then you can emphasize to students that when

Geometry Explorations/Warm-Ups with Desmos
Hello teachers! Thank you for choosing Peak State Mathematics to be a part of your classroom. This tool is a compilation of different Desmos explorations I’ve created. They are fairly simple and are intended to be used as warm-ups/explorations of new concepts. The way I use these in my class is by linking the specific exploration to their Google Classroom (or other common space) and having them get started on it as they enter the classroom (Bell Ringer).I will add different prompts depending on

Three Dimensional Curves and Surfaces. 3D - Geometria Analitica
Use GeoGebra' tools for well understanding parametric equations and three dimensional analytic geometry ParaboloideIn mathematics, a parametric equation defines a group of quantities as functions of one or more independent variables called parameters. Parametric equations are commonly used to express the coordinates of the points that make up a geometric object such as a curve or surface, in which case the equations are collectively called a parametric representation or parameterization (alterna
