We are working on solving formula-based problems using the 4 step process.

1. State the formula.
2.  Substitute.
3.  Solve.
4.  Label.

The slide shows will consist of 7 slides including:

Scene 1 First Name, Formula Name, and Formula.
Scene 2 Application Problem.
Scene 3 Directions on how to solve your formula problem.
Scene 4 Solve your problem.
Scene 5 How do you use the formula in everyday life.
Scene 6 Summary.
Scene 7 Credits.

Each student chose a geometric formula of their choice.  They researched the formula, created an application problem using the formula, solved and explained the process of solving the problem, described how the problem is used in everyday life, and cited the sources that helped them in the delivery of their slide show. Numerous cross-curricular CSOs have been incorporated in this project.  The students are looking forward to presenting their games (slide shows) and giving their explanations on how to solve formula-based problems.  The next step will be creating a mini game involving 3 other math concepts.  Stay tuned.....
