Discovering Geometry in Everyday Life: A Fifth Grade Exploration

Join Ms. Silva's fifth-grade class in an exciting journey to uncover geometry in our world! Each student takes on the challenge to restore the R2 Geo Museum's missing artifacts by creating engaging projects. From power point presentations and collages to songs and poems, students must identify and represent both 2D and 3D geometric terms. By immersing themselves in the beauty of shapes, they enhance their understanding of geometry through real-world applications. This project will ignite their passion for mathematics and creativity!

  3. Project Options: There are many ways to present your findings! You may select one of the following or create your own with the director’s permissions: • Power Point Presentation: • Use digital camera to take real world original pictures • Identify the geometry terms from Box A and Box B and label your pictures correctly with these terms • Present your PPP to the RR board of directors • Geo Collage: • Collect real world pictures from various sources and create a collage on a poster • Identify the terms from Box A and Box B on your pictures as required • Present your collage to the RR board of directors • Geo Idol of the Day: • Create your own song, poem, or a rap explaining terms from the Box A and Box B • Explain the terms in your song, poem, or a rap • Audition in front of the audience and the RR museum directors • A-Z Booklet: • Create an A-Z booklet of the required number of terms with drawings and definitions from the Box A and Box B • *For all options, remember to choose 8 artifacts from Box A and 4 artifacts from Box B
