End of the Year - Project - GEOBOTS!!

It's that time of the year again!!!!!

State exams are through.
7th Grade scholars have gone through 10 units of standards and have mastered those skills and are now able to implement all of them as they create their very own GeoBots (GEOmetric roBOTS).

Go to this link and use your AF login to see an example of past GeoBot presentations.

You can also see an example done by what Mr. Pierre of what your GeoBot Presentation could look like on Google Drive.



The rubric that scholars are given is as follows:

STANDARDS
Students will make model robots out of geometric figures, measure them and determine the dimensions of a full-sized robot, and conduct a statistical investigation concerning the results of their robots.   This project allows students the opportunity to show that they have mastered proficiency in all areas of the Common Core Standards for seventh grade mathematics.

Part 1:

Ø  Draw a sketch of your GeoBot. (Your sketches should include a FRONT VIEW, BACK VIEW and SIDE VIEW)

Ø  List the geometric shapes that make up your GeoBot. (For example: rectangular prism, triangular prism, cylinder, cube, etc.)

Part 2:

·         Measure each part of your GeoBot. (measurements should be in inches)
·         Determine the surface area of your GeoBot
·         Determine the volume of your GeoBot.


Part 3:


ü  Make a slogan for your GeoBot
ü  Create a logo for your GeoBot
ü  Make a digital poster/powerpoint/google slides presentation


Part 4:


§  Present your GeoBot to the class

It's been awhile

 It has been awhile.... So much has changed over the past 18 months. I hope you are doing well. I am currently in California and would love ...
