Geometry students on a treasure hunt
Mr. Villanueva uses a Treasure Hunt to help his Geometry students understand concepts.
Mr. V had the students play an origami game, where they use their visual perception to make a pirate hat. Donning their pirate hats students had to follow one of the two different paths with the clues to find the treasure. In order to open the chest they had to show Mr. V their thinking over the map.
We started "Constructions" a week ago and today we were reviewing the 4 loci or geometric places that satisfies one condition. Same distance from one point, two points, one line and two lines. Besides it being a little cold some of them had fun and started Halloween with a little extra candy.
