1. Famous Mathematicians and their work! 3rd quarter Math project
For your project you will be creating a poster about a famous Mathematician! You will do a short, 3 minute presentation to the class about your project. Your posters will be displayed outside the science lab.
I have a list of possible choices of Mathematicians for your project. On Friday, March 4th, you will have to let me know which Mathematician you will be researching. If you would like to do a different person, you will need to get my approval. I will give you poster board for your project.
Your poster needs to have the following on it:
1. Printed picture of the Mathematician.
2. Name, birthdate and country of origin of Mathematician.
3. Printed map of country of origin, and birthplace labeled, if applicable.
4. Short, typed description of one of their important mathematical discoveries or contributions. (at least 1 paragraph)
5. A printed example of one of their famous mathematical problems, or you can make up a sample problem related to their mathematical contribution.
6. At least one other picture or example relating to the Mathematician and a typed description of what the picture is showing.
Grading rubric attached – This will be counted as a test grade!
