Real-World Math Projects for Gifted Learners, Grades 4-5

By Mark Steven Hess

Book Overview

Helping bring mathematics and engineering to life, these challenging lessons give teachers an exciting tool for engaging advanced learners through creativity and hands-on products. Units are driven by standards and invite students to become baseball field architects, create flying jellyfish, make a gnome hat parachute, scale skyscrapers, and more Each project includes step-by-step lesson plans with reproducible templates, time estimates, and a materials list. While centered on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) competencies, true to real-world experiences, these hands-on projects span the curriculum--including writing and public speaking--and while they suit entire classrooms and smaller groups, they can also be easily adapted to individual projects for independent study and home school.
