rubber ducky 3 students did a parrot and this one stood out the most.Ī little inappropriate but I’m hoping it’s from an innocent intention. One student emailed me his work so he could erase it and continue his design! The following are samples from some of the students in my 4 8th grade classes. Some even used water colors at home to decorate it! A few forgot that I didn’t want them to erase the calculations unless they wanted to put it in the back. Showing students the work from the last two years once again inspired many students to reach new heights. This year, using index cards for making perfect 90 degree right angles and realizing that 4 spaces on an index card equal exactly one inch helped students create more accurate constructions. I only did the above with students through a conversation on co-constructing it. Showing samples from my pinned tweet is motivating.
The best teaching days are introducing this project to my Ss in class and them finishing at home. Year 3 of the Wheel of Theodorus project, and Ss knocked this out of the park. Last years blog post of student sample work seemed to go viral: I first heard about “wheel of theodorus” from yummy math and this year I’m calling it Spiral of pythagoras in hopes that kids remember the name of the Pythagorean theorem. For the fourth year in a row, students practiced the Pythagorean theorem and exercised their creativity with this art project.
