designed for my 7th grade Math classroom is designed to be a project happening towards the end of the year. \u00a0We finish the school year learning about probability so this will be the project that ends that unit. \u00a0I anticipate this being a 2 week project in our curriculum.<\/p>\n<p><b>Intro of Project:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Project will be introduced by showing the video Caine\u2019s Arcade which is a true story of a little boy who builds an arcade completely out of cardboard (<b>If you have never seen the video you need to watch it now. \u00a0It is an amazing and heartwarming story!\u00a0&#x1f642;<\/b>\u00a0)<\/p>\n<p><b>The following question will be posed to the students:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How can you design a carnival game to where not everyone will win the game, but it will still be a game that people will want to play (meaning that there is a chance to win)?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b><i>You CAN<\/i><\/b><\/td>\n<td><b><i>You
