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).
End of Year Project
This EIGHT PROJECT BUNDLE (!!!!!) will keep your Algebra 1, Geometry, or Algebra 2 students busy for the last 1 - 3 weeks of school doing either independent or group projects, with or without access to technology. Projects include rubrics and grading criteria for the most part, although I sometimes just grade this with a daily participation grade rather than for correctness. Project topics include:
- Area and Perimeter -- Design Your Own Playground!
- Linear Modeling -- Human Height and Bone Le

Coordinate Plane Amusement Park Project
This 11-page project packet is designed for students to create a "blue print" of their own amusement park. Packet also includes 3 pages of teacher directions/tips and a checklist. This is a culminating unit project to be used at the end of a unit on integers/graphing in the coordinate plane. By following the steps in each of five tasks, students create an amusement park using all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Students demonstrate understanding of plotting points on the coordinate pl

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

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!

Design Your Own Cereal Box Using Area, Surface Area, and Volume
This project can be used when teaching Surface Area and Volume in grades 5-7.
Students will design their own cereal brand and box. Students will label their cereal box and it’s dimensions. Then, students will find the volume of the cereal box. Students will create a surface area net or use the one provided to find the area of each face and then the total surface area of the cereal box. Just like any other cereal box, the front should be decorated to attract customers and students w

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!

Math Career Assignment with Directions, Website Links and a Grading Rubric
Looking for a new assignment for one of your math classes? I have created this assignment in an attempt to have students become more passionate about math and to see a connection to the real world. In short, this assignment requires students to create a 1-page fact-sheet or Power Point presentation on a particular math career. (51 Printable careers are included) Each student in the class completes their own report and then reports back to the class on their findings. When I am done with all o
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.
