Idea details:
We use math in our boy scout troop to calculate attendance ratios, service hour ratios, and scout participation.
We also use math in our merit badges, such as physical fitness. We measure our chest, thighs, arms, and legs to determine our physical fitness improvement after we have completed a 90 day fitness program.
We also use math in our personal management merit badge. We keep a 90 budget and a calendar to improve our time management skills.
