[update: 10/05/15: I no longer use this in my classes because I developed a better sequence of lessons for teaching geometry where students deduce each construction using reasoning instead of copying steps from a website or myself.]
Following an activity developing definitions in geometry, the first major unit of geometry will be constructions.
I plan to take 2 class periods to complete this foldable for their interactive note books with time for practice. Each tab has space for both the steps and an example for segments and angles, except of course the last tab which contains constructing a line parallel to another line through a point and constructing a perpendicular line.
Instead of just talking at my students, I’m considering having students complete these notes in pairs using this website for directions: http://www.mathopenref.com/tocs/constructionstoc.html
Then I can circulate and provide support as needed. I’ll update this post after using this with students reflecting on its usefulness.
