Sixth graders at Lakehurst Elementary School demonstrated their decimal knowledge through a hands-on PBL project, designing 3-D “Decimal Food Trucks.” The students calculated costs, set menu prices, and determined profit margins, integrating math with creativity and teamwork. “The students loved bringing math to life in a fun and engaging way,” said sixth-grade teacher, Mrs. Lucas. The project concluded with a showcase event where students presented their food trucks and explained their pricing strategies, reinforcing both math skills and entrepreneurial thinking. Students had the opportunity to order from each other’s trucks, calculating total cost and making change.
