Geometry Project - Geometry Town
Students will create a town map made of different geometric figures. They will demonstrate their knowledge of parallel and perpendicular lines, acute and obtuse angles, geometric shapes as well as many other geometric concepts through this creative and fun project.
This project can be adapted to higher level geometry courses and high school classes. You can add parameters to the geometric shaped buildings (ex. must label the dimensions of the building given a certain area or perimeter).
Complementary and Supplementary Angles Activity Treasure Hunt
Challenge your students with a treasure hunt on complementary and supplementary angles. Students engage in a treasure hunt designed by Euclid, following clues and solving angle problems in order to find the "treasure." Student tested and approved. This treasure hunt includes:20 complementary and supplementary angle problemsTreasure hunt scenarioAnswer keyGreat to use after the Complementary and Supplementary Angles Interactive Notebook pages Are you in a digital classroom?

Da Vinci Parachute Prototypes -- Hands-on STEM
In this lesson, students solve geometry problems and learn background physics concepts as they build a working model of Leonardo Da Vinci’s parachute. Logic, critical thinking, a bit of Renaissance history, writing and supporting conclusions with details from a source—it’s all here too!
Make this extended lesson a cross-curricular, standards-based mini-unit, or just make it a cool building activity. Pick and choose the level of commitment right for you and your students. With the suggested e

Surface Area Project: Rectangular Solids and Cylinders
Students will bring in a box (and cylinder) from home and use it to find surface area (using 2 different methods), volume and to create a net. Students will also review measurement and use appropriate units (squared and cubed).
This project will enable the students to actually understand the surface area formula. (instead of just plugging numbers into a formula) They will not only use the formula, but also calculate the area of each of the individual 6 faces of a rectangular solid (and parts o

Wheel of Theodorus Pythagorean Theorem Art Project
Any chance I can to give students the ability to be creative in math, I take it! This is an enrichment project I use during my Pythagorean Theorem unit. Students are tasked with applying their knowledge of the Pythagorean Theorem to create a Wheel of Theodorus. The download is a word doc., so you have the ability to edit it to fit the needs of your classroom.
NCAA March Madness Basketball Project (Sweet Sixteen) - Middle School Math
Bring the excitement of March Madness to your classroom. Your students will select a team that makes the Sweet 16 in this year's NCAA men's basketball tournament. Students will do the following tasks: - Fill out a bracket for their team's region- Look up general information about their team. - Track how well their team does. They will look up final scores, leading scorers, and more. - Research their school. They will find out the tuition and room & board costs to attend their school. -

Math 7 End of Year Restaurant Project
Great end of year project for students to work on after state testing. Requires students to partner up and plan a theme for a restaurant, develop a floor plan, make a menu, calculate surface area, find percent change, create an advertisement, and present their restaurant to the class.
Presentations are done in class in a 'shark tank' manner where students are competing to be chosen as the winner. Classmates and the teacher vote to decide who came up with the best restaurant!

Translations, Rotations, and Reflections (Transformations in Geometry)
This PowerPoint presentation uses animations to demontrate 3 types of tranformations: translations, rotations, and reflections. Students can actively create their own transformational shape that can then be translated, rotated, or reflected to build a tessellation. Turn Geometry into a fun art project where students can add color to their tessellation to create an image out of te transformed shape.

Trigonometry Golf
I like to call this activity Putt-Putt-Geometry. It is 9 glorious holes of trigonometry application! This works great as a Trig unit project, end of year project, or test review (maybe 1 or 2 holes for review). The students can work in groups, pairs, or individuals. If your students are not proficient with Trig, or you have not covered it yet, each hole can be done using the Pythagorean Theorem instead - simply tweak the directions a bit. I hope your students enjoy this as much as mine do!

Compass Animals
Students can choose between 6 different animals to construct completely out of circles. By constructing their animals they are practicing measuring with a ruler (using both metric and English measurements) and using a compass. This is also great review for circle vocabulary such as radius and diameter.
This activity includes the instructions for a bear, panda, turtle, pig, frog, and lady bug. Each animal has the dimensions for all body parts.

This is an exceptional review activity for 4th graders to address geometry standards 4.G.1 and 4.G.2. This could also easily be adapted to address 3rd-6th grade geometry standards. Essentially students use a ruler and follow along as the teacher reviews ideas such as right angles, types of triangles, parallel lines, perpendicular lines, parallelograms, acute and obtuse angles and so forth. After creating the lines and segments, students use oil pastels (or crayons, paint, etc) to color in the d
