"These really stretched my 7th grade honors students. The first 3 cards are pretty basic, and they get progressively more difficult. It was great to hear the conversations and debates that were happening with the kids!"

Description

Parallel Lines, Transversals, and Angles Math Lib


In this activity, students will generate pieces to a story as they rotate through ten stations, solving problems related to parallel lines cut by a transversal. Students must have an understanding of alternate interior, alternate exterior, corresponding, and consecutive interior angles. These are more challenging problems that were written for a high school level geometry class.

The answer to each station will give them a piece of their story (who, doing what, with who, where, when, etc.). This is a much more fun approach to multiple choice, and the students adore reading the story to the class. They get very excited to see which of their teachers is the "star" of the story.

EDIT ALL STORY ELEMENTS! All slides are given in an editable format so you are free to personalize the story for your students. PowerPoint is required to edit. Only story elements can be changed, not the actual problems.

I love putting my students into groups to work on the math libs. They like being able to check to see if their answer is an option too.
