MAKER SPACE ACTIVITY:
Geometry provides a great opportunity to put mathematics into the hands of the students. After finishing our first two units on symmetry, transformations, lines, and angles, we decided to package it all up and extend that knowledge using our maker space. The students had learned about how to use mathematical notation to label lines and angles, and they also had explored ideas on reflectional and rotational symmetry. Their task involved designing a 3D shape that when viewed from directly above would have either rotational or reflectional symmetry (possibly both). They performed dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections in the computer program and ended up with some great looking results.
Our extension included actually drawing a scale model of their shape using the mathematical vocabulary they had learned. We discussed the importance of being literate in this area – and not just for those that want to be mathematicians or engineers. The document the followed can be found here. I’ve modified it slightly to contain a little bit more sound mathematical ideas (symmetry exclusively from the diagram in top-view).
