Starting A Small Business Project
This project is designed for 7th-8th graders who have learned how to find unit rate, percents, proportions, and solve/write equations.
I used this activity in a 7th grade honors math class at the end of the year. The students loved this activity! Students felt so proud when making their items and designing their business. When each student brought in their items to sell, it was very neat to see a different side of each student.
Students can be creative as to what they want to sell.

I used Market Basket this week, but almost all of these items are also for sale in Shaws and Stop & Shop, as well. I made it a Word document, so you can easily replace the images if you want! I've also included a link to a PDF of the flyer on the last page of the document. Just a heads up, but Market Basket does have a Beer and Wine section

This is a math project for upper elementary or middle school students.
Students inherit a large sum of money and must spend it all in a short amount of time. This unit covers banking, discounts, and sales tax.
