Preview of Dilation Character Project

Dilation Character Project

This self directed project is designed specifically for distance learning, but also works well in a classroom setting. Students will need access to two pieces of paper, a ruler, a black marker, and something to color with (crayons, colored, pencils or markers would work!) I do this project with my Geometry students immediately after learning about dilation on the coordinate plane. It is great because it offers a hands on way for students to demonstrate their knowledge, and allows them to expre

TriAnimal: a triangle animal project where geometry meets art

Join me on an exciting journey into the world of art and geometry! In this project, students will embark on a creative adventure where they will draw an animal using only triangles. Through this process, label perpendicular bisector, altitude, median and demonstrate pythagoreans theorem and the triangle inequality theorem. This project comes as a packet with instructions, workspace, and a rubric.

Urban Geometry: Build a Cityscape with Math

Engage your students with this hands-on project that combines geometry and creativity! In this Geometric Cityscape Project, students will design and create their own cityscapes using key geometric elements such as points, lines, angles, and planes. This project allows students to apply their understanding of geometry in a fun and artistic way. What's Included: Project Instructions: Clear and concise step-by-step guidelines for creating the cityscape. Geometric Elements Checklist: A list of req

Geometry Around Us: Hands-On Scavenger Hunt Activity

Looking for a fun, low-prep way to get students moving, thinking, and reviewing geometry concepts? This Geometry Photo Scavenger Hunt is the perfect creative activity to wrap up your geometry unit—or your school year! Students will explore campus (or any outdoor space) in search of real-life objects that represent specific geometric terms. From inscribed angles in a fountain to parallel lines on a fence, geometry is everywhere—students just need to look for it! Working alone or with a partner,
Preview of Quadrilateral Profiles Project

Quadrilateral Profiles Project

In this project, students will create "social media profiles" for a quadrilateral of their choice. It should include 10 facts about their quadrilateral, a unique, real life, solved word problem using a theorem or property related to their quadrilateral, and a heavy dose of creativity. My students LOVED creating these profiles. I gave them the opportunity to do it digitally or on paper. I did this project with my class during online learning, but it could be used during in person classes as w

Teaching style

At the heart of my teaching philosophy lies a commitment to nurturing the growth mindset within each of my students. I firmly believe that with the right encouragement and mindset, every learner can not only understand but also excel in mathematics. My teaching style is a reflection of this belief. I embrace interdisciplinary lessons that connect the dots between mathematics, real-world applications, and other subjects. By weaving together different fields of knowledge, I aim to show students the power and relevance of math in their everyday lives. In my classroom, diversity in learning is celebrated. I understand that every student is unique, and I tailor my teaching methods to accommodate various learning styles and preferences. Whether through hands-on activities, visual aids, collaborative projects, or personalized support, I strive to ensure that every student has the opportunity to thrive. Join me on a learning journey where the growth mindset flourishes, where subjects converge to create a holistic understanding, and where every student finds their own path to mathematical success.

Additional biographical information

With a rich and diverse teaching background, I've had the privilege of sharing my passion for mathematics in a wide range of educational settings. My teaching journey has taken me from dynamic public schools to prestigious independent institutions and even across borders to international schools.
