7.G.2 Students will attempt to construct triangles and then choose which of those triangles would be useful in engineering solutions to real world problems.

Skateboarding Angles

7-fp, 7.G, 7th Grade, 8.G, 8th Grade, Common Core Standards, Geometry, Real-Life Math LessonsBy MattDecember 27, 2014Leave a comment

7.G.5 Students will look at images of skateboarders performing tricks and attempt to find the measure of angles that relate to the trick.

Reflecting Math

8.G, 8th Grade, Common Core Standards, Geometry, Real-Life Math LessonsBy MattJanuary 14, 2013Leave a comment

Students will reflect on reflecting and discover how math can help us describe what a mirror actually does.

Geometry Walk

6.G, 6th Grade, 7.G, 7th Grade, Common Core Standards, Geometry, Real-Life Math LessonsBy MattJuly 26, 2012Leave a comment

In this lesson students will take a walk and discover where geometric figures are around them. Please read the lesson plan fully as there is a lot of depth and variety that this lesson can provide which is all spelled out in the lesson plan.

Discovering Pi
