People have a propensity for hard work. It just needs to be

work that matters to them. -  Jane McGonigal

Missions are meaningful!

SITUATION: We are surrounded by fractions. They decide how much or little we get in life so it’s important we can figure them out.

MISSION: Take pictures of 10 fractions and create 4 word problems with these pictures to give to peers to solve.

SITUATION: The mayor is ridding the city of graffiti unless he is convinced it is art.

MISSION: Snap photos of graffiti you want to keep and make a strong argument why it is art.
