Quadrilateral Kite Experiment Project Congruent Angles & Perpendicular Bisectors
The purpose of the Quadrilateral Kite Experiment is to allow students to explore the characteristics of a quadratic kite and use those properties for flight. Students will construct a kite using wooden dowels, a plastic bag, and some string. They will conduct an experimental flight, recording their data and results. Students will then reflect on their results and the qualities of a quadratic kite that make it the choice shape for flight. They will then examine the results of others. Students wi

Fireworks: Trigonometry Inquiry Project
In this inquiry-based project, students will learn how to use basic trigonometric functions such as cosine, tangent and sine to find the missing side distances and angles of a right-angle triangle.Students will explore how fireworks of varying heights will affect the viewing angle and line of sight for the viewing audience.Students will design their own fireworks show that will include 4 different colours of fireworks. Each firework choice has a differing explosion height, which will slightly ch

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!

Black History Unit Circle Project
This project gives Trigonometry and Algebra 2 students the chance to apply their knowledge of the unit circle to an exciting project from history. Students learn about Matthew Henson, a pioneering Black explorer in the Arctic, and help him chart courses to caches of items the explorers need to reach the North Pole.The project includes a map, a compass (based on the unit circle), and an Explorer's Log. Students will use trigonometric ratios and the associated values to find their headings on the

Trigonometry Project - How Tall is That? (Making a Theodolite)
This is one of my favorite projects of all time. Students make a tool to measure the angle of elevation from their eyeline and use it to measure the distance or height of things using trigonometry. I would bring students to the banks of the East River on the Brooklyn side and determine the height of the Chrystler building, or the distance to the Empire State. But you can also determine the height of the basketball hoop, the flagpole or the tallest tree on the school grounds. There are a lot

Clinometer Activity - Trigonometry and Similar Triangles - Geometry
This is a fabulous activity for teaching similar triangles and trigonometry to a geometry class! As you can see in the thumbnails, I take my students outside for this activity and it is a lot of fun.Duration: 1-3 hours, depending on the group. My honors geometry classes have completed the task in ~100-120 minutes.Here's how the activity works:1. Learn about the clinometer (I show a brief youtube video) and build your own.2. Leave the classroom, head outside or around the school (gym, auditorium,

Unit Circle Warmups and Project in Degrees Bundle
This bundle includes two different products for Trigonometry and Algebra 2 students. The first is a series of 15 quick exercises on the Unit Circle that can be used as warmups or as exit tickets. Each warmup is unique and allows students to fill in coordinates and angles of the unit circle and calculate the trig ratios associated with the angles. The exercises are quick; each one has between three and five blanks on the unit circle for students to fill in, and then three trig ratios (sine, cosin

Trigonometry and Special Right Triangles
This project is great for virtual learners or face to face learners that want to relate the concepts to the real-world. This can also be used as a test replacement (retest) or test substitute. I created this to keep my test integrity while assessing virtual learners on their application of the unit concepts. This project assess Pythagorean theorem, Pythagorean triples, special right triangles, trigonometry, the Laws of Sines and Cosines, and more.

Reciprocal Teaching Project - Trigonometry
This is a five day long project that requires students to work collaboratively in groups to teach themselves about their assigned topic.
Students will create a lesson, an activity, and an exit check relating to their assigned topic. There are daily checklists that students will follow to help guide them through the creation of their lesson.
At the end of the five days, each group will present their lesson as if they are the teachers. Since this is an actual lesson, presentations should be ar

Thinkless Teaching develops animated videos that go hand-and-hand with cooperative learning activities. These activities are designed to get students working together to apply their understanding of a particular topic. It is Thinkless Teaching's goal to create videos that not only contain supplemented materials, but also specific stopping points within the video to allow for teacher-student discussion. We hope to provide you with an entire lesson without any "thinking" on your part! We hope y
