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.

It's been 4 years in the making.

8th Graders you're coming to the end of your middle school chapters.

It's been a joy..... here are some fond memories

SBACs are almost over

With state exams coming to end I am certain you all crushed it! You've been putting in work all year. With less than a month before you go on your summer break I know you must be feeling just like JB.
