The students used a race track, hot wheels, and Venier Probe Technology in the classroom to measure the time that it takes for cars to travel given distance. They calculated the speed of the cars, and several unit conversions. Students made graphs, tables, and equations to model these experiments and examined mathematical concepts of slope.

Students built rockets, launched rockets, and calculated their flight using quadratic equations.

Students used the concepts discussed in their Hydroponics unit to model a scaling situation in math and how it could help solve world hunger.

1) The students made scale models of a future school to practice scaling. These models are shown below as examples.

2) The students drafted pictures of their vertical farming facilities and determined how much they could produce using this facility.

3) The students then made 3D models of their vertical farms after drawing scaled 3D pictures.
