Geometry Lines in My Town

Teacher will define perpendicular, parallel, intersecting and skew lines. Students will locate examples using math textbooks and geometry textbooks. Students will then find pictures in the school/classroom that represent the various lines and draw sketches of them. Students will then use digital cameras and at their home/through their neighborhood take photos of the various lines. Students will then type their definitions using a word processing program, scan their sketches into the computer, and upload their photos to make a power point to distribute to their classmates about lines. Students will then rewrite information to explain to a 3rd grader the various lines and compile the information into a book.
