Math
In Math, the 6th graders role-played as servers and diners in a restaurant. They put their knowledge of computing with decimals and percent to real-world experience. As servers, they had to calculate the total for the bill. As diners, they had to decide on the amount of tips based on percent, and to calculate the total amount to pay the servers.
7th graders discovered the ratio of diameter to its circumference of circle. The students concluded that the circumference is about 3 times the length of its diameter, and made sense of why pi is used for finding circumference of circles.
