Math students will be in the computer lab each day this week completing their Unit 7 MYP Project. This is a cross-curricular project incorporating Social Studies objectives (Civil War statistics) with Math objectives (using appropriate graphs to display data). This information will be presented using Technology objectives (creating graphs in Excel, researching on the Internet). All students will present their final data in a Word document, PowerPoint presentation, or using other media of their choice.
Final project is due by Thursday, April 5, 2012. REMINDER-School is out Friday 4/6 and Monday 4/9.
