This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Now that we have completed all of the required geometry curriculum, there is a need for tools that we do not have on hand for curriculum extension projects, including the Toothpick Bridge Challenge Project. In order to help my students dig into this hands-on geometry project in class, we need toothpicks, liquid glue, wax paper, and pencils. My students are eager to learn new skills with the application of geometry.
Through these project materials, my students will have all the necessary tools to begin their hands-on geometry journey!
We are super excited to dive into our geometry projects! Having these additional hands-on materials will allow us to explore math on a new level!
