Help me with my Math Projecy, PLEASE?!?

Okay so, my teacher assigned us an assignment. We have to make a project of any sort that has SOMETHING TO DO WITH MATHS. It can be any type of project. But it also has to be an activity. It'll be up on display in an exibition so people can play, and use it. It also has to be of low or no cost. We aren't allowed to invest much on it. We can, however, use used posters, charts, newspapers, papers, and etc. to create it, BUT WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PURCHASE FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT. So far I have no ideas AT ALL. Some people are making geometrical fortune tellers, etc. so i can do something like that but IT HAS TO BE AN ACTICITY, AND IT HAS TO BE OF LOW OR NO COST, AND IT HAS TO DO SOMETHING WITH MATH. Please give me ideas. I'm desperate. This is the first time I'm on yahoo answers. HELP!

1. if it is your project your the one who is supposed to be doing it
2. It is really ashamed how some teachers are teaching math. This is NOT how you teach math. I am on lunch break.
3. I don't know what level of math you are enrolled in. Geometry? If you're in trig, there are a ton of fun projects such as a slingshot. Newtonian - Shouldn't you get back to teaching your class?
4. I would think something like the "magic number cards" would be a cool activity. There are 5 cards (you can also find a version with 6 cards) with various subsets of the numbers 1 through 31 (or 63). The person picks a number, then finds all the cards that have the number. Magically, someone can tell them the number they picked. Once you do the "trick" you could have a display talking about binary numbers and how it actually works. It would be both a fun activity and a teaching activity. Read more below:
