Pythagorean Theorem Project (Fencing a yard)
This project introduces students to a real world problem using the pythagorean theorem. Students are asked to find the perimeter of their large yard and compare price quotes from two companies who have made a bid for the job.
The work is relatively simple and is perfectly suited for Algebra I and Geometry students. It's a short project that could even be given for a homework assignment or in-class activity. The topics covered include the pythagorean theorem, perimeter, plotting points, and

Surface Area and Volume City Project
Students will build a city or town using the 3D cutout shapes provided. They will calculate surface area and volume of buildings and create a imaginative storyline with their findings. They will love this project and it gets them working together and working hands-on in the math classroom!
Volume Project: Geometric Sculpture, Free
This activity combines math and art to help students practice calculating volume.
In this project, students build a three-dimensional "sculpture" out of any materials they choose. Then, they calculate the volume by measuring each part of their sculpture and using appropriate formulas.
I have been amazed by the projects my 8th grade students have created for this assignment. The guidelines and rubric are included in the download. You will receive a PDF and an editable word document.

Alphabet Slope Creative Project - Project Based Learning (PBL) with Math
The Alphabet Slope Creative Project gives students an opportunity to practice using positive, negative, zero and undefined slopes in a creative context that is fun and personal. This project has two parts. First students practice labeling the lines that make up the letters of the alphabet, according to slope definitions. Once that is completed and checked by the teacher to ensure understanding, students will move on to the creative portion of the project. To complete the second portion of the p

Pythagorean Spiral Project
In this project, students will use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the side lengths of successive triangles. They will also use right triangle Trigonometry (Soh Cah Toa) to calculate the measure of interior angles. This project gives them a chance to create using Math, and to decorate their spiral in whatever way they choose. I often use this project before exams, allowing them to compete for bonus points. The spirals are easy to grade, and fun for the kids.

Similar Triangles Project
This Geometry project is a fun and creative way for students to demonstrate their knowledge of SSS, SAS and AA Similarity. Students will construct triangles with a ruler, compass and a detailed set of instructions. This alternative assessment can be done in class as each concept is introduced or entirely at home. It is so much fun to see students creativity when they turn in their final project.

21st Century Math Projects by Topic Chart
I have experimented with different ways to make my 21st Century Math Projects more searchable and clear. Although a title like "Cost of Smoking" is descriptive of the interdisciplinary content, it isn't clear what topics are being taught. I have tried to make a Common Core alignment chart, but now with well over 100 projects that became too much to see visually. I have mapped each project to the CCSS on the TPT.

Pythagorean Theorem Instagram Project
***This project was NOT my idea, but compiled by ideas that various teachers have posted online!!!!!!!***Rather than test my students on Pythagorean Theorem, I decided that students can use something they know all about - Instagram - to showcase their understanding.Suggestion for extending: Include a requirement for students to plot their right triangle on a coordinate plane and prove the distance formula!Once students have submitted their projects, make a wall to display Pythagoras' posts!
City Design Project
This project was used in my high school Geometry class after direct instruction of transversals, parallel lines, corresponding angles, etc. This was used as an assessment and student were encouraged to use their notes. Student work was displayed around the classroom until the end of the unit. The sticker file I have included can be printed on sticker sheets or on plain paper and then glued to their project sheets. If you do not use sticker paper then edit the instruction accordingly.

Similarity Project
Similarity refers to figures that are the same size and same shape. We can use proportions and similar figures to predict the height of objects in photographs. For this mini project, you are to take a digital picture of yourself standing next to a TALL object. (It is preferable that you take the picture next to something you can NOT measure the height of.) Then you will print your picture and use it to PREDICT how tall your object is. To do this, think about the properties we have used in c

This project is meant to be challenging but achievable. It asks students to find the area and perimeter of a complex shape. Properties of triangles, angles and metric conversions are also incorporated into the problem. It can be used as a culminating task or an extra credit assignment. Because it is requires a lot of thought, it is a great take home assignment to give in conjunction with a unit test, as it requires strong students to perfect their organization and weaker ones the time to work
