Castle Project


 


Due date- Friday, March 6 th                       


Castle Project Open House for Parents 12:10-12:40 


Objective- Students will be able to identify and describe 3-D shapes and their properties.


Parent Summary – We will be learning about 3-D shapes in math this quarter. The purpose of this project is to use a variety of 3-D shapes to construct a castle.  I encourage the students to use recycled materials that you have at home such as paper towel rolls, boxes, and containers.  At the Castle Open House, the students will be expected to explain to the students and visitors the location of the 3-D shapes and their attributes (faces, corner, edges).  


The shapes that we will be studying in class include:


          sphere


          rectangular prism


          triangular prism


          cube


triangular pyramid


          rectangular pyramid


          cone


          cylinder


 


Please attach the rubricbelow to your castle when you turn it in on March 6th.



 Have fun working on your castle!
