Mathematics grade 7, term 3: Project
R57.50
Resource Description
Term 3 project for mathematics: Geometry
For this project learners create a pencil case (3D triangular prism).
- Straight line geometry is used to construct a net by following step-by-step instructions. (vertical lines, horizontal lines, perpendicular lines, intersecting lines, parallel lines)
- 2D geometry is used by applying knowledge about triangles constructed in the net. (properties of triangles based on sides and angles, calculating angles and area)
- 3D geometry is used to construct a 3D triangular prism shaped pencil case from cardboard by making use of the constructed net/template. (calculating volume, drawing 3D and following step-by-step instructions.)
- Transformation geometry is used to draw translations and rotations of triangles constructed in the net. (Enlargement and scale drawing using ratios)
Memorandum and Rubric included.
PDF and WORD format to make adaptions if needed.
CAPS and SBA compliant.
