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).
Graphing Polygons on the Coordinate Plane to Find Area/Perimeter
This activity asks the students to plot various ordered pairs on a coordinate plane and connect the points to make a polygon. Then they are expected to calculate the area and/or perimeter of each shape. The first worksheet has a square, two rectangles and a triangle. The triangle is starred to show higher level thinking. Each polygon is to be colored a different color. The second worksheet asks the students to plot the points of five polygons: a triangle, two rectangles and two composite f
Orton-Gillingham Tutoring Contract
I have been tutoring privately for over 25 years and I fine-tune my tutoring policies every school year and summer. This is my latest version. You will have to "make it your own." It is NOT a one size fits all product so, of course, you will have to customize it. I always send the first 2 pages to parents after the initial phone call or email so they understand my background, my services, and Orton-Gillingham. The final 2 pages are used after a schedule has been agreed upon between the parent(s)
