This Unit Circle Paper Plate Activity is designed to be a unique, hands-on way for your students to engage with the unit circle. It is appealing to all types of learners and results in a reference material that students can keep and use throughout the year. The product includes:

• Detailed Teacher Instructions
• Detailed Student Instructions
• Pages of 30, 45, and 60 degree triangles that are ready to print
• Student Reflection Questions Assignment
• Image of completed example

To complete the activity, students will cut out the different types of triangles and follow the provided instructions to tape or glue them to their paper plates. They will use color-coded dot stickers to label the angles in degrees and radians. After assembling their unit circles, students will answer the reflection questions. This is one of the most important parts of the activity, as it allows students time to reflect on the patterns they have discovered and build understanding, rather than just memorize the unit circle.

SUPPLIES NEEDED:

1 paper plate per student

16 colored dot stickers per student (4 stickers of 4 different colors)

Colored paper that matches the dot stickers
