This PowerPoint structures time and provides students with access to clear, concise, yet complete, instructions on how to construct the items listed below. This does a few things. Students have a hard time recalling how constructions work after the fact because they focus on doing the construction, not recording how it was done. Since most of these constructions are fairly simple, and the PowerPoint guides them through it, it frees you up to help individual students.

The constructions covered are:

• Copy a line segment
• Copy an angle
• Perpendicular bisector
• Angle bisector
• Simple Triangle (compass and straight edge only)

Along with the lesson you will receive a downloadable Lesson Guide, which paces you through the entire lesson.
