Friday Afternoon Lifesavers are exactly what they sound like: at the end of the week when you and your students are running out of gas, these activities come to the rescue. They are mathematical, engaging, fun, and give the teacher a much-needed break.
Here’s a project that’s good for both algebra and geometry subjects. It has simple directions and teaches students to make accurate measurements and pay attention to symmetry and overall page layout. You can learn how to present the project to your students by viewing this screencast, or simply use an LCD projector to show your students directly in class. Pause the screencast as needed during construction steps.
Enjoy your projects and your students will thank you when they see how nice their projects look!
