Geometry Museum Exhibits
Process
1. Chose a topic from Geometry from the list or pick one on your own. Get it approved by your teacher.
- Lines and Angles
- Parallel Lines and Transversals
- Triangles
- Similar Triangles and Triangle Congruence
- Quadrilaterals
- Circles
- Surfaces and Solids
- Area and Perimeter
- Non-Euclidean Geometry
3. Based on your research, create an idea for an exhibit that could be created to help teach this topic. Your exhibit can be something that people create, explore, or observe. Make it creative and meaningful!
You can look at real museum exhibits at these museums for ideas.
- Field Museum (Chicago, IL)
- COSI (Columbus, OH)
- Smithsonian (Washington D.C.)
- Cincinnati Museum Center (Cincinnati, OH)
- Science Museum of Minnesota (St. Paul, MN)
- Geometry Playground by the National Science Foundation (traveling Geometry exhibit)
4. Create something to advertise your exhibit you created in 1 of 3 ways:
5. Create a flyer to pass out at your exhibit. This flyer should explain the mathematics of your topic. Use Glogster to make your flyer.
6. Be prepared to present your exhibit in class. You will also pass out your flyer to the class.
