Task:

You have three hundred dollars to spend on this party and many choices to choose from but you must chose from the list of activities below.  Together you can invite no more than 4 people to your party and you are in charge of paying the expenses for all of them.  Each person must take on a role in this project and research the given sites for that role.  You will then collaborate together and decide what the best options for your party are. 

Your one obstacle for having this party is to convince your parents that you have done significant research on all the activities involved and you will not exceed your budget.  To display the information to your parents you must create a brochure, a poster, or a slide show explaining your entire party.  This must include all the costs, travel, and entertainment that you will be participating in.

Students will use percents, work with an specified amount of money and using number sence functions such as addition, subtraction and comparing numbers.
