Ratio & rates projects

Students had several options for their ratio & rates projects but the most popular were a game board, vocabulary scrapbook, and comic.  Here's an example of a comic created using Paint.  Some formatting issues occurred when typing, but you get the gist!

JSAACAR Races

Students participated in our own version of NASCAR racing to practice calculating speed.  Each group member raced for 4 seconds while the other team members measured and recorded data.  Afterward students had to calculate their speed based on their distance and time.
