Students will use their math skills to create a 3-dimensional dodecahedron and will include the number of faces, edges, and vertices. This is an ultimate reading project for a chapter book. Each panel (or face) of the dodecahedron focuses on a different reading skill. Some of the skills include theme, point of view, character description, and summary. This project includes detailed directions to send home, a grading rubric for both a math grade and a reading grade, a template for cutting out

This packet contains 2 activities with answer keys. The first one is a self-exploration of the angles of a triangle. Students should use protractors to measure all three angles in a triangle and come up with they think would be a good rule for the sum of angles in a triangle. The second activity gives them the rule for the sum of angles in a triangle, and asks students to tell what the measure of one angle is if given the other two. For the second activity, students should not use a protract
