Instead of taking a traditional test to wrap up the geometry unit, 6A students participated in a school wide scavenger hunt.  Students took pictures on their iPads around the math classroom, hallways, auditorium, Learning Commons, school entrance, and a courtyard to find different types of angles, lines, polygons, and perform some calculations on either volume, surface area, or area.  Students were surprised that so many of the geometric concepts we have learned about surround them everyday.  Here are some examples of the students’ Geometry Scavenger Hunts made on the Explain Everything app.
