Students will create a poster representing interesting numerical facts that make them easier to understand. Students will work together, creating a poster based on a mathematical theme . When it is finished, the poster will present four numerical facts with four questions that can be answered using these facts and an equation that can be solved to fined another interesting fact. To decide how well students explained magnitudes, the class will hold a contest. All posters will be displayed and the class will judge the posters based on standards chosen in advance. This poster is worth 200 total points(2 test grades) and will be due December 16,2008 by the end of class period.
