BIG PICTURE FOR GEOMETRY This is a fun unit and we will be doing a lot of art and building.

Che ! out the "ro#e t and due dates Students will: investigate geometric properties of triangles, quadrilaterals, and prisms; develop an understanding of similarity and congruence. $hat we will Re%iew Polygons regular and irregular Platonic Solids Isometric Drawing Euler s !ule $hat we will be stud&ing " #easuring and $isecting %ngles &onstruct acute, o'tuse, rig(t, and refle) angles. Estimate angle si*es and measure wit( a protractor. $isect angles using a variety of met(ods, e.g., protractor, compass, paper folding, #ira. + Investigating and &lassifying ,riangles &lassify triangles 'y t(eir sides and angles -scalene, isosceles,equilateral, acute, o'tuse, rig(t. Investigate triangle properties, e.g., t(e largest angle in a triangle lies across from t(e longest side. &lassify triangles 'y t(e num'er of lines of symmetry t(ey possess. / $uilding and &lassifying 0uadrilaterals &lassify and name quadrilaterals and illustrate t(eir c(aracteristics. &lassify quadrilaterals 'ased on geometric properties, e.g., symmetry, num'er of equal sides, num'er of equal angles.... 1 Investigating Polygon and 0uadrilateral Properties Investigate t(e relations(ip 'etween t(e num'er of sides in a regular polygon and t(e num'er of lines of symmetry it possesses. Investigate t(e relations(ip in a quadrilateral 'etween t(e num'er of lines of symmetry and if it (as "23o or 43o rotational symmetry. &onstruct lines t(at intersect at /35, 135, and 635, using a variety of tools and strategies.

6 Investigating Perpendicular $isectors and %ngle $isectors &onstruct perpendiculars and t(e perpendicular 'isector of a line using a variety of tools and strategies. 7se appropriate sym'ols to mar8 43o angles and equal line segments. Investigate perpendicular 'isectors and angle 'isectors of triangles. 9 Investigating Parallel :ines &onstruct parallel lines using a variety of tools. Determine angle properties created 'y parallel lines. 7se angle properties to construct parallel lines. Investigate angles in a parallelogram.

Geometry PROJECT 7th Grade Math


Objective: Gain hands-on experience developing art with geometric shapes, utilizing measurement skills and balancing it with spatial skills.

Project Options
1.

Materials Needed

STRING ART - Create an original design using geometric shapes and


concepts. Examples are on display and techniques will be taught in class. esigns must include at least ! o" the "ollowing# angles, circles, polygons, rotations, dilations, translations, re"lections and symmetry. Outstanding projects may receive a grade above 100.
