Learning Goals
Students will be able to formulate statistical questions and analyze community park data using distributions, measures of center, variability, and visual displays to identify diverse community needs.
Students will be able to calculate and justify the area of triangles, quadrilaterals, and composite polygons by composing and decomposing shapes to use limited park space efficiently.
Students will be able to create a scaled park design using coordinate-plane measurements, nets, surface-area calculations, and inequalities to model spatial and resource constraints.
Students will be able to communicate and revise an inclusive park proposal using community feedback, multimedia storytelling, project reflection, and a manageable work schedule to serve diverse audiences responsibly.
Products
Individual Mathematical Park Design Portfolio
Each student produces a concise portfolio containing community-data analysis, a visual display, area and surface-area calculations, coordinate and net models, solved design inequalities, and an evidence-based inclusive park proposal with a schedule and reflection.
Inclusive Community Park 3-D Model and Interactive Exhibition Presentation
Teams construct a labeled 3-D park model from a scaled coordinate-plane plan and present the mathematics, community evidence, inclusive features, and recommendations to an Elizabeth City Parks and Recreation representative using multimedia and an interactive feedback tool.
