Math: The Delicious Shape Shop.
Krech, Bob
Instructor, v109 n4 p12-13 Nov-Dec 1999
Describes a consumer-math-skills project in which students make geometric shapes using pretzel sticks and gumdrops, then start a shop to sell them. This requires counting costs, pricing items, setting up shop, using money, making change, and understanding profits. Students reflect on the experience and write lists of the math they used to create products and run the shop. (SM)
