The Math Project Studio

This is all the documents I created to teach the (slightly disjointed) 7th Grade Geometry Chapter. I created this chapter to make this chapter engaging and fun. I have listed these documents separately if you only need a few sections, instead of the complete chapter, including the final project.

This project is a great way to assess a deeper understanding of the 7th grade Geometry chapter. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this project handout as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately. This project is the final version of a mini project that I always used to start this geometry chapter. The students add elements from the chapter to

This handout is a great way to introduce 24 geometry vocabulary to start off the chapter. Some words serve as review, but other words were brand new to my students. Drawing an example of the word and thinking of real world examples of the word, assisted memory and recognition of the terms. We did this as a class activity, but it could be easily used as a station activity. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately.

This handout is a great way to introduce a deeper understanding of triangles. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this triangle identification handout as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately.

This handout is a great way to introduce a deeper understanding of quadrilaterals. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this quadrilateral identification and drawing activity handout as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately.

This handout is a great way to introduce scale drawings. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this scale drawing activity handout as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I gave students graph paper to accompany this handout for their Dream Bedroom Scale Drawing. This is a rough draft of this activity. The final project pulls together the other elements discussed in the chapter. I will be posting other m

This transformation activity is a creative way to assess student understanding of translations, reflections, and rotations. You can choose to provide students with a coordinate plane or give them graph paper to make their own.

This is the outline I used for the Geometry Chapter for my 7th graders. I created this chapter outline for students to keep their work organized in their binders. I will be posting the handouts and projects I created separately.

My favorite type of assessments are projects. After working hard on a project, it is important to have students think about how they performed in the chapter and project. This Group Project Reflection page is perfect for allowing students to reflect on their work and give fair feedback about their performance and their group's performance. I used this seven question handout with middle school students, but it could be used with 5th grade and above.

This handout is a great way to introduce a deeper understanding of cross sections. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this cross section video guide as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately. I found an entertaining selection of videos on YouTube. I created a playlist, bought fruit, printed off this video guide. I paused the videos about half

I truly believe in hands on practice to promote long term memory and understanding. This hand out reminds students of the concept of surface area and volume, and gives them hands-on way to practice those formulas. This handout is a great way to introduce a deeper understanding of surface area & volume. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this surface area & volume notes & activity handout as well as other mater

This handout is a great way to introduce a deeper understanding of angles. I set my students loose on the classroom with protractors in hand, and they had a blast! They also developed a strong understanding of the different types of triangles and how they differ from each other. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this angle activity handout as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I will be posting ot

This handout is a great way to introduce a deeper understanding of circles. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this hands on circle handout as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. Encouraging students to practice area and circumference with real life objects, helped create long lasting memories for them. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately.

This mini project is a great way to assess an understanding of quadrilaterals and triangles. The 7th grade Geometry chapter had diverse topics that the students had trouble viewing as related. So, I designed this quadrilateral and triangle collage art mini project as well as other materials to tie the chapter together. I will be posting other materials for this chapter separately.
