You don’t need to find an empty week in your pacing guide to use a math project.

In this episode, we’re looking at three ways projects can fit into the mathematics you’re already teaching:

• Investigate with math → Election Data + Statistics
• Make a decision with math → Pitch Profit
• Practice through a meaningful product → Stained Glass

Projects don’t have to replace your instruction, practice, or curriculum. Sometimes they simply give students somewhere meaningful to use the math they’re already learning.

This week’s reflection: What job does the mathematics you’re teaching right now need students to do—investigate, decide, or practice?
