Description

This project entails students picking a social statistic of their choice, learning about Public Service Announcements, completing a worksheet that guides students through the steps of the project, and making a brochure or poster. The extension activity is recording a PSA that can be shared on the morning announcements for the school. The math involved includes rates, unit rates, defining variables, the constant of proportionality (easily removed if not preferred), a table of solutions, and graphing. Students are also responsible for writing a detailed paragraph. Students can complete the project independently or with a partner (the division of labor is detailed in the project). A rubric for the project can be purchased as a bundle.

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.
Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.
Understand the concept of a unit rate 𝘢/𝘣 associated with a ratio 𝘢:𝘣 with 𝘣 ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.”
