Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Project
When teaching anything, students have a tendency to shine in other ways than that of the traditional pen and paper test. This project was used in place of a traditional pen and paper test. My students created a bird house for their chapter project that covered parallel and perpendicular lines and planes. They had to design their houses from scratch, making sure that the bird they selected could actually live in it. They came up with blue prints, calculated surface area, and even wrote an ess

Real World Painting Project for Parallel Lines cut by Transversal
**HANDS ON PARALLEL LINES CUT BY TRANSVERSAL PROJECT** This parallel lines painting project will help students develop and prove the vocabulary of parallel lines cut by a transversal in the real world! First project Checkpoint 1, will be given before students learn about the vocabulary and properties of parallel lines cut by a transversal. Checkpoint 1 is done in a group: Students take painters blue tape and create parallel lines using two pieces of tape. Students will paint over the tape (al

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).

St. Patrick's Day Ireland Coding project learning about Ogham stones
Ireland is more than just the land of four leaf clovers! This is the perfect activity for older kids who are ready for something different than the normal St. Patrick's Day activities. This exercise is also a great screen-free way to introduce your students to the world of coding! Ogham Stones are large stones that people carved a secret language in on the island of Ireland. This lesson will teach your students how to create their own secret codes with the Ogham alphabet. The alphabet is simple

Design an Efficient Manufacturing Floor: An Intro to Geometry Project
Students will step into the role of engineers tasked with designing the layout of a new manufacturing facility. The layout must be efficient, safe, and functional - just like real factories that assemble electronics, cars, appliances, or packaged goods. To accomplish this, students will apply core intro to geometry concepts: Points, lines, and segmentsParallel and perpendicular linesAngle types and angle measuresPolygons (triangles, rectangles, quadrilaterals)Distance and midpointBasic construct

Transversal Angles City Project
Have your students construct their own city using parallel lines and transversal angles. The students will decide the landmarks in their city and then construct the city based on the stipulations set. The angles used are: alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, same side interior angles, same side exterior angles, vertical angles, supplementary angles, and corresponding angles.

City Design Project
This project was used in my high school Geometry class after direct instruction of transversals, parallel lines, corresponding angles, etc. This was used as an assessment and student were encouraged to use their notes. Student work was displayed around the classroom until the end of the unit. The sticker file I have included can be printed on sticker sheets or on plain paper and then glued to their project sheets. If you do not use sticker paper then edit the instruction accordingly.

Slopes of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines: An Inquiry-Based Exploration
This is an inquiry-based learning activity used to teach students of the properties of the slopes of parallel lines and the slopes of perpendicular lines. This activity is best used before going too in-depth with the algebraic properties of parallel and perpendicular lines as it allows students to discover, on their own terms, these properties. The papers are arranged so that you may print the graphing activities on one sheet of paper and the questions on another. Have students put papers side b

Students love using their creativity in designing their own farm. This activity allows students to “SHOW” their knowledge of angles in a very unique way. It is a great way to disguise assessment while bringing in art and agricultural aspects. Students will create a farm using parallel lines, perpendicular lines, transversals, and angle pairs.

Geogebra TM Exploration of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
This exercise guides students through an exploration of theorems involving parallel, perpendicular and transversal lines. The step-wise approach also allows students to become familiar with the functions available on Geogebra TM, an open domain software and fee app. Students will record findings on handout and also produce a hard copies of Geogebra TM sketches. Subsequent projects and exercises will rely on this introductory use of Geogebra TM.

Parallel City Project
This project is great to do after a unit on parallel lines and special angle pairs in geometry.
The project tests students' understanding of congruent and non-congruent alternate interior and exterior angles, consecutive interior and exterior angles, and corresponding angels.
Students are told where to place buildings with "clues" such as the "gas station and a restaurant at congruent alternate exterior angles".
This project allows for a lot of creativity and critical thinking!
