I was trying to think of some new ways to get my students to truly understand what they were doing while working their math problems. I thought that if they had to write their steps down in a detail format and explain to their friends, the boys would be able to catch their mistakes faster and see where they needed help. This blog explains our journey. I am also learning about project base learning this year. I will also be taking you though our journey of project base learning and geometry.

Geometry Projects
The boys have put themselves in the role of a Creator. They were given the assignment to create their dream club house, play house, or hunting blind. They could build it from things around their house, Sketch-Up, or legos. We have been talking about how Geometry is all around us. I wanted to end this unit with them taking on a role where they could experience hands on Geometry. I will be showing you their projects soon.
