A complex question looking for the total cost of a stained glass window by calculating area and circumference of a circle. With detailed components, this activity will challenge your designers to figure out if they have enough money to put their masterpiece together. Some information must be inferred by the picture, or have a group discussion to figure out the dimensions. A great independent problem for strong mathematicians or try assigning partners for average or low learners.
