Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the types of mathematical leadership that emerge in the process of applying Interdisciplinary Mathematical Modeling activities taken from real life. For this purpose, the researchers, working with a mathematics teacher and a science teacher, developed two interdisciplinary activities (the Stream Problem and the Energy Saving Problem). The activities were implemented in two groups of 3 and 4 students (11-12 years of age) studying in the 7th grade in a provincial center in the Eastern region of Turkey. In the application process, students put forward their own mathematical and scientific ideas by using their knowledge of mathematics and science in an integrated structure, and by supporting these ideas with group discussions, they produced different models (products). In the process of creating a model, it was observed that some students' came forth within the group, with their mathematical leaderships.
