21st Century Math Projects by Topic Chart
I have experimented with different ways to make my 21st Century Math Projects more searchable and clear. Although a title like "Cost of Smoking" is descriptive of the interdisciplinary content, it isn't clear what topics are being taught. I have tried to make a Common Core alignment chart, but now with well over 100 projects that became too much to see visually. I have mapped each project to the CCSS on the TPT.
