Abstract

This article describes an activity completed by middle school math students prior to the class trip to Washington, D.C. The activity could be completed by students in grades 6-10 working with ratios, proportional reasoning, and scale models. This activity combines mathematical content with research and historical facts from our nation’s capital, as well as real-life experiences on information gathering and messy data.
