    4Math Comic Strip [DUE 22 November 2013]

    DIRECTIONS: SAW . Use separate paper if needed.

    Funny math project.

    All must students create a cartoon based on a mathematical concept from a recent unit(subtraction, addition, multiplication, division, time, money, comparing numbers and so on). Allstudents must draw a comic strip based on a math concept with 10 panels. The panels musthave clearly drawn characters, an explanation of a math technique, concept or rule, and theyinclude some elements of humor, irony or drama in the cartoon. Each panel must contain ordemonstrate a mathematical concept. For example, students create a masked hero whocatches a bank robber, adding and subtracting money sums throughout the piece as well asincluding the time the banker robber tried to rob the bank and the time the superhero saved thecustomers from the bank robber. This is a school project; therefore, violence should not bedepicted in this project. Students are allowed to combine math with their favorite characters,such as superheroes or Saturday morning cartoon show favorites.
