Math Blueprint Projects - Presentation of Learning

POL PROJECT
05/25 AND 05/26

What you should have for the 25th and 26th (POL Presentation) 3-5 minutes long

The following slides will show you what you need for you project:

Somewhere you want to go (For example, school, Magic Mountain, Disneyland)
(Step 1)

Draw where you want to go as a blue print
(Step 2)

Explain the Driving Question
(Step 3)

Explain details of where you want to go
(Step 4)

Explain how to calculate the area and perimeter of the shapes you drew (Step 5)
Explain why someone should buy your blue print (Step 6)

Step 1-

Draw somewhere you
want to go. This is a
picture of a school.

Step 2- Draw a blueprint of
where you want to go on
graph paper. Every
project should have at
least one square,
rectangle, and triangle.

How do geometric shapes help us
create a blueprint?

Step 3

Explain how each shape
represents a different aspect of
where you want to go. For
example, squares, triangles, and
rectangles help us represent
different buildings and structures
within a school. The tables and
desks are represented by
rectangles. The Easel is
represented as a square.

Explain Details of where you want to go (Step 4)

Example: I drew NYE Elementary school
because it’s my favorite place to go
and I grew up there. My blueprint
contains many desks, chairs, and
projectors. I remember doing many
projects in my 5th grade class and it was
really fun. I have lots of memories
growing up In my elementary school.

Explain the PROCESS of how to calculate
Area and Perimeter of Triangles, Squares,
and Rectangles. Example-
The square represents the desks at the
school. The formula for Area is base times
height. In order to find the area, of the
shape, you would multiple 3 units by 3 units
to get 9 square units. The perimeter is
calculated by adding all of the sides
together. Since there are 4 sides, 3 + 3 +3
+3= 12 units.
