What is a lapbook?

A lapbook is a book made from a file folder that includes various information about a topic. Students can create a lap book by cutting, coloring (when needed), and gluing them inside a file folder. The finished file folder book is called a lapbook because the book is usually big enough to spread out on your lap to read.

Lapbooks do not come with specific assembly instructions. Students are to use the information to build their books creatively and uniquely! This is a fun way for students to learn and get hands-on with the information!

All of the hard work is done for you. Just print the pieces, give each student one file folder, and let your students get creative!

Are you looking for a fun way to practice multiplication, subtraction, and addition with decimals? Then look no further! This is an engaging activity for all students. This is a fun math project to practice multiplication with decimals. Students will get to put their math skills into practice in a real life situation. They will create a mock cotton candy stand where they will have to be in charge of buying their product, figuring out how much each customer owes, and how much they will profit. This activity lets each student set up their own cotton candy stand, so all their answers may differ. At the end of the activity students will determine if their cotton candy stand was successful, whether they made a big enough profit to do it again.

This activity has students practice multiplying, dividing, and subtracting numbers with decimals.

What's included:

• A letter to the teacher explaining the task.
• A letter to the students (business owner) explaining their task.
• A page for students to create their own sign for their shop.
• The product page, where students will pick what products they will buy.
• Hourly sales page (There are two options) One will break it down for each step and there is another page that is more challenging for your higher math students to stretch their thinking and not lay out each step explicitly.
• A total sales sheet with reflection questions.
• A social media post for students to create.

The best part? Students have autonomy over their own cotton candy stand. Let them have the reins of their learning. It allows for math practice and a little creativity.

Get creative in the classroom and have your students apply real world math. Show them where they might use multiplication, addition, and subtraction of decimals. Get rid of the boring old math worksheets and let your students create their own little business.

What other teachers are saying:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Anaida W. says, "Fantastic math project! Engaging and full of great questions for students. Thanks."

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐Just Another Smith says, "Oh my! I love this activity! It was perfect for basic arithmetic reinforcement for my students. I loved that the activity has a mix of fixed tasks but also some open ended elements so that the students had some choice and creativity. I really enjoy giving my students real-world tasks and felt like this was right at their level. The instructions were clear and there were also some choices for me with built in differentiation."

These are ready to use, just print them out and get started. This could be a great lesson to leave for a substitute as it is no prep!

It is always a good strategy to review essential skills with your students, and this is right up there with the most essential!

Do tall students jump high and far? Do the same students jump high and far? Students collect their own quantitative data to answer these and other questions. The data collection does not take long. Afterwards, students calculate the measures of central tendency - mean, median, mode, Q1, Q3, min, max, range and upper and lower outliers (extremes). The handout (with complete answer key for the teacher) contains the formulas students need in order to do all calculations.

This project has been tried, tested and refined in my own middle and high school classes for many years.

Quantitative Data, Measures of Central Tendency, Mean, Median, Mode, Quartile 1, Quartile 3, Interquartile Range, Outliers, Extremes, Data, Project, Range, Minimum, Maximum.

This classroom tried and tested data and statistics activity helps students to see the benefit of gathering their own quantitative and qualitative data to make real-life choices. We have all wondered - which water container should I buy? Are the expensive water containers really that much better? Students compare 4 water containers quantitatively for how effectively they keep water warm and cold. They also compare them qualitatively, looking at price, durability, design and other subjective measures.

This resource works great as ...

• a task
• a class project (it takes roughly a week)
• distance learning
• math centers
• constructive group work when introducing the topic of data and statistics.

And, Now with the Olympic Games just gone by, you must get these other activities for Data and Stats as well!
