Welcome to our communication headquarters. I am a high school mathematics teacher in the Chicago Suburbs looking for an interactive way to incorporate photography into the study of geometric shapes. The objective of my project asks students to find examples of geometric shapes in their surrounding environment, photograph them, and then using geometric properties explain why the shape is as they classified. For my first attempt at a networking assignment, I wanted to focus on TRIANGLES (scalene, isosceles, equilateral, acute, obtuse, right, and/or equiangular). If my initial attempt is successful I will expand to shapes up to 10 sides later in the school year. If you haven't already done so and are interested in joining this networking project email me at Zeglin@uiuc.edu.
Due to my presentation date, photo submissions needs to be received by July 28th to allow time to publish our findings on a web page that will be available to anyone who is interested.
