M&M Statistics Project
This is a great hands on project for the class that likes to keep active. The students will be given a bag of M&M's and make some predictions. Then data will be collected. Students will then find MEAN, MEDIAN, MODE, THE LOWER QUARTILE, THE UPPER QUARTILE, RANGE, INTERQUARTILE RANGE. Then the students will construct a box and whisker plot with the data. To conclude the project they will compile a powerpoint and include charts from excel or google sheets. A rubric is included for grading

Common Core Math - Volume of Cones,Spheres and Cylinders. Water Lab
Are you looking for a way to raise the rigor of your math class to meet common core standards but also keep it age appropriate and fun? That is exactly what I was looking for so I created this volume lab for my students. It worked so that I will be using it for many years.
Before you download, please know that you will need to have a set of fillable geosolids like the ones found here: http://www.hand2mind.com/item/relational-geosolids/1382
You might be able to improvise but the set I hav

Triangle side lengths inequality hands on spaghetti lab sheet
This product contains a lab sheet for students to complete to discover the triangle side lengths inequality. Students should use spaghetti to create triangles and non triangles, then fill out the conclusion statements at the bottom to determine the triangle side lengths inequality. Product links include and editable google doc and a pdf. The second page of both contains the fill in the blank answer key for the conclusions on the bottom.

Algebra Functions by Hand
Teach your students how to graph functions without a calculator. Using a basic y=mx+b format, give some x values in a table, have the students calculate the y value, convert to order pairs (O.P.). Finally, they graph their points and voila! A function is born! Also include is basic translation, reflection, and identification of O.P., and values of b, m, and y from a graph.

Fraction Patterns Lab: A Hands-On Math Experience
In this hands-on math experience, students will use their knowledge of division to discover patterns in the decimal equivalents of fractions. Students will divide to find the decimal equivalent of multiple fractions with the same denominator. From that information, students will use inductive reasoning to determine when the decimal equivalent results in an integer, a repeating decimal, or a terminating decimal. They will also describe the pattern in decimal equivalents. This experience serves as
