Project Ideas
- Use Geogebra geometry online tool to explore geometric concepts, for instance:
- Comparing opposite angles of intersecting lines
- The angles of a triangle
- Parallel lines
- The angles of a quadrilateral
- etc.
- Explore the turtle programming language at Turtle Academy
- Use our Javascript for Kids textbook to find javascript programming projects to work on.
- Do a mathematical art project. This could be a music piece, sculpture, drawing, etc. It must include:
- Pick a mathematical topic the art work is going to speak to.
- Create the piece of art.
- Write a companion piece to discuss how the artwork speaks to the mathematical topic
- Research Conway’s Game of Life, problems include:
- Finding and documenting stable patterns.
- Looking at alternate rules and how that changes the patterns
- Finding a way to program the basic rules in a language to adjust them more freely.
- Exploring mathematics with the Python programming language. See Bill for project ideas.
