Geometry in Our World

Looking at the slide show, I see something related to Geometry in every picture.

With a class blog I could get my students to comment on what they see in their world,
or in a slide show provided....

What do you see?

What other ideas do you have for Geometry and blogging?

  2. One suggestion might be something like on your way to (or from) school, what kind of geometric figures did you see and where? See if anyone mentions the sun (circle), the lines painted on the road or other everyday things that are sort of overlooked.

  3. So interesting Mindy.. I did something similar with 5th graders and they absolutely loved finding geometry in everyday life. Please let me know if you are interested in the lesson so you could tailor it to your needs. :)
