    • Financial Literacy (Project Based Learning) - students choose a job, research an occupation, choose bank accounts based on interest rates, put ma percentage of their salary into a savings account, take out a loan, and calculate the interest on these loans.
    • Discovering Pi (Inquiry Lesson) - Students measure circular objects using measuring tapes to approximate the number which will be pi.
