Building a City
Each 7th-grade math class at Yulee Middle School was assigned an end-of-year project after the Math FSA and reinforcing area, volume, and surface area. The projects ranged from building a city, building their dream home, building a restaurant, or building an amusement park. The students had to determine their scale, make and then provide the calculations for the area of rooms, their buildings, etc. They had to plan how people would get around and if they chose the restaurant, they had to create a menu with daily specials.
