Launching M&Ms with quadratic equations and catapults

TGS and PTIS students worked together on their first mathematics integrated project with a host school. Students built catapults and worked in groups to determine the quadratic function that modelled the trajectory of their M&Ms. They then used this quadratic function to determine how far away their catapults needed to be placed from a target in order to hit the target. Overall, it was a very exciting math activity that allowed our students to interact with other 10th grade math students and to apply their mathematical skills.
