Quarter 1 Integers and Equations Group Project Outline
Project Procedures
Step 1: Select a topic – Students must select, as a group, one of the two prompts from the
provided project choice board. Each of these prompts require the students to create a finished
product in the way of construction of an item. Prompts provided will have a connection to
either Integers or Equations, which were our first two units of the school year. Be sure to pick a
topic from the provided list that is interesting to you and your group. A boring topic will make
for a boring project!
Step 2: Complete the project outline form as a group – After students select the prompt from
the list provided, they will write out their prompt, discuss goals for the project, and commit to
the individual project requirements and descriptions.
Step 3: Prompt creation – Students will create their group project based on the prompt that
they have chosen. Each prompt asks you to be very specific in your creation, so make sure you
cover each and every question throughout both your creation and presentation phases.
Step 4: Create a presentation about your selected prompt. Be prepared to present in front of
your classmates. Each student must have a part in the presentation as well as during the
projects creation.

Integers and Equations Group Presentation and Creation Guidelines
A presentation:
Students presentations will be judged on the following criteria:
1. Students presentations are rehearsed, prepared presentations, not read reports.
2. Students speak loudly and clearly.
3. The information is presented in such a way that prior knowledge is not necessary to
understand the content of the presentation.
4. Each student must have an obvious role in all sections of the project. This not only
includes the presentation and creation, but also the research that went into the final
products. Inability to contribute in all phases will result in a 1 letter grade deduction for
that individual student.
A creation:



This will be taken from the two prompts that you select. If a prompt asks you to create a
poster, then that is what you do.
You need to create, or significantly enhance something. Do not copy somebody else’s
work or simply put together pre-existing notes and examples. Make this be your own!
The connection between your creation and presentation must be obvious. Students
must fully explain their creations and their purposes in their presentations.
