Looking for some real world application and fun while you assess student understanding? This project is a perfect blend of creativity, geometric concepts, and some real world problem-solving for middle school or high school students. Students will also use the internet and/or AI (quick tutorial included) to bring their ideas to life. Summary: Students will rebrand their high school; creating a new logo and color scheme, while creating a new mascot to lead school spirit. Along with the rebr

Have students take their understanding of transformations and apply it in a fun setting, Tetris! Students use the Desmos website to practice their Tetris skills using translation and rotation before working on three practice problems (one quite challenging).

This worksheet is a great time-filler or quick assessment to see how well students grasp the idea of translation, reflection, and rotation. There are also two "challenge" questions where students need to complete multiple transformations on the same figure in order to find its final landing spot on the coordinate plane.

This is a great worksheet to assess student understanding of arithmetic and geometric sequences, as well as general pattern recognition (colors, positioning, combinations).

This worksheet forces students to use their knowledge of area and extend it to complete some challenging problems using different shapes and real-world application, including purchasing flooring given a floor plan.

Looking for some challenging activities while teaching volume? This worksheet contains three activities that forces students to use their knowledge of volume to solve real-world problems including: -Creating different shapes with the same volume -Filling a tank (requires knowledge of total surface area as well) -Filling a U-Haul

Looking for an activity where students use their knowledge of area and perimeter to solve a real-world problem? This worksheet forces students to find and calculate missing dimensions in order to calculate the amount and cost of materials (and labor) needed to finish the landscaping of a property.

This activity gives students a chance to incorporate their understanding of volume and apply it to the real-world. Students will have to rearrange equations given specific data to find missing measurements and problem-solve. Students will also apply their knowledge of volume in order to solve real-world problems involving packaging and delivery. There are 'Extension' questions which force students to analyze and explore relationships between similar figures.

This is a great activity to show real-world application of area and perimeter in the world of sports. Students will use their knowledge of area and perimeter to fence and turf a baseball field; they will then use those calculations to find necessary materials on the internet and price out the job. There are also a couple of 'Extension' questions to challenge students regarding Pythagorean Theorem and the effect that scaling the field down to softball dimensions has on their calculations.
