Problem/Project Reflection

This assignment was very enjoyable to me and I think that I gained some valuable practice in planning and developing a great student project. After my group and I came up with our initial idea, we were able to make a five day plan that encompassed all of the material that would be needed to complete the project. I think that having the students do a project is an awesome way to have them apply material over many different math topics. Any time that math can be applied to a real life situation brings more excitement and appeal to the students so they will be more likely to remember what they have learned and take that information onto their next grade or even in their own lives. It was fun for me to work with my group to expand our idea and add details to make it like a real project that I could use someday!
