Gatorland Math Activity
Now you have probably heard of or been to Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World, and even Legoland, but have you ever been to Gatorland!? It doesn’t get more “Florida Man” than Gatorland. GatorLand is Central Florida fun at it’s best. Where else in the world can you see giant 14 foot long alligators launch themselves from the murky swamp into the air to snag a raw chicken?
Use this activity to explore a little of the history and facts about Gatorland while applying math skills in a “mostly” practical and relevant way. This activity is made in Google Slides and designed to be assigned in Google Classroom. There is an answer key included.
Math Skills include: Rate, speed, distance, chronological/number order, addition, multiplication, percent and fractions, average, dimensions, pricing with sales tax.
