Geometry Construction Card Set

Created by

Jody Malterre

Set includes 18 self directed cards for students to create geometry constructions. Cards start very basic (such as duplicating a line segment or angle) and progress to more challenging constructions (making a parallelogram or inscribing a triangle in a circle). The cards include loads of vocabulary and are color coded by each step so that students can complete on their own or in a group. My Montessori kids love them!
