Activity Title: Exploring Geometric Shapes

Learning Objectives

1. Students will understand the properties and characteristics of different geometric shapes.
2. Students will be able to identify and create different geometric shapes using various materials.
3. Students will develop problem-solving skills and critical thinking through exploration and
discovery.

Activity Description

1. Introduction: Introduce the concept of geometric shapes and their importance in real-life
applications.

2. Exploration: Provide students with various materials, such as blocks, puzzles, and geometric shape
manipulatives, to explore and discover different geometric shapes.

3. Discovery Learning: Encourage students to explore and discover the properties and characteristics of
different geometric shapes, such as the number of sides, angles, and symmetry.

4. Constructivist Approach: Encourage students to construct their own knowledge by asking open-ended
questions, such as "What do you notice about the shape?" or "How can you use these shapes to create a
new design?"

5. Design Challenge: Provide students with a design challenge, such as creating a geometric shape that
meets specific criteria, such as having a certain number of sides or angles.

6. Presentations: Have students present their designs and explain their thinking and problem-solving
process.

Assessment

1. Student Presentations: Assess students' understanding of geometric shapes and their ability to apply
mathematical concepts to real-world problems.

2. Design Challenge: Assess students' ability to design and create geometric shapes that meet specific
criteria.
Constructivist and Discovery Learning Elements

1. Student-centered learning: Students are encouraged to take an active role in their learning, exploring
and discovering new concepts and ideas.

2. Inquiry-based learning: Students are encouraged to ask questions and seek answers through
exploration and discovery.

3. Hands-on learning: Students use manipulatives and materials to explore and discover geometric
shapes.

4. Authentic learning: The activity is designed to be relevant and meaningful to students' lives, allowing
them to apply mathematical concepts to real-world problems.

Math Concepts

1. Geometry: Students will learn about different geometric shapes, such as triangles, quadrilaterals, and
polygons.

2. Measurement: Students will learn about measurement concepts, such as perimeter and area.

3. Problem-solving: Students will develop problem-solving skills through exploration and discovery.
