A fun, creative, hands-on geometry project that gets students designing their own city while practicing shapes, lines, and angles! NOW WITH EDITABLE RUBRIC!

Make geometry come to life with this engaging, hands-on Geometry City Project! Students will design their own town while applying key geometry skills like identifying shapes, classifying angles, and working with parallel and perpendicular lines.

This project is perfect for:
✔ End-of-unit assessments
✔ Review before state testing (PSSA aligned!)
✔ Enrichment or creative math days
✔ Sub plans or low-prep activities

🏙️ What Students Will Do:

Students will create a detailed city map that includes:
• Parallel and perpendicular streets
• Intersecting lines forming acute and obtuse angles
• Buildings made from specific geometric shapes (triangles, trapezoids, quadrilaterals, and more!)
• A fully labeled and creatively designed town

This project encourages creativity + critical thinking while reinforcing important geometry standards.

📦 What’s Included:

✔ Student Directions Page
✔ Clear Project Requirements
✔ Grading Rubric (easy to use + student-friendly)
✔ Real Student Examples (great for modeling expectations!)
