Geometric Probability Worksheet Spring 2014 with Key (Editable)
This worksheet is designed to replace a lecture on calculating geometric probability.
I start out class with a 15-minute "mini-lesson," giving my students some basic examples of what today's lesson will be about. Once the mini-lesson is over, I have them get to work within their groups on this worksheet.
I use this activity within cooperative groups, and I circulate to make sure they are getting the purpose of the questions.

Geometry Triangle Congruence Origami Project "Origami Geometree"
A fun way for students to discuss triangle congruency! Students are tasked with folding an origami ornament to hang on our "Geometree". When presenting this mini project, you can discuss how precision and congruence are a huge part of origami and that students should be on the look out for the content discussed with regard to congruence in the course such as SAS, SSS, etc, reflexive property, angle and segment bisectors and more. After folding, students will present their ornament and discus

Introduction to Geometric Constructions (learn through play) with Answer Key
Geometry students often like to "play" with their compass and straightedge when they first use them: this activity is exactly what I use to get some mileage out of this urge to play: by just repeatedly drawing full circles (as opposed to arcs), students can generate midpoints, perpendicular lines, parallel lines, regular triangles, regular hexagons, and sixty and thirty degree angles.

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!
