Our 7th graders got to see Algebra IRL with GEAR UP Kentucky yesterday! Watch the video at the link below.

Students spent the day learning how math shows up in everyday life through some pretty fun activities:
🎩 A math magician
🏹 Ballista and catapult challenges
📊 Graphing distance
🧠 PEMDAS competitions
🤝 Lots of teamwork and problem-solving

Who knew algebra could involve launching arrows and a little friendly competition! Our students had a great time putting their math skills to work and seeing that math really is everywhere.
