History of Geometry
Mathematics-Grade three
by Jennifer Horst
In this cybertour you will be exploring activities relating to the history of geometry and other activities relating to geometry.
OBJECTIVES AND OUTCOMES
objectives for this cybertour on Geometry:
  • To realize that Geometry is important To see how mathematicians developed ideas for Geometry To be able to recognize different shapes To be able to use a geometric theorem To see that we use Geometry in real life situations
  • POLYGONS
    Answer the joke on the web page, then click on activities, there you will find a few additional links. Then click on polygons to start the lesson.
    click here for lesson on polygons

    A polygon is a closed plane figure made up of line segments. We see polygons everywhere. On streets, in your classroom and even at home.
  • Draw three different polygons. In your own words, what is a polygon? Tell me the name of some polygons we use everyday? Which of these shapes are polygons? Which of these shapes are not polygons?
  • PYTHAGORAS
    Look at this page to give you a general idea about Pythagoras. Also be sure to click on Pythagoras to learn more about him. Read carefully so that you can answer the questions!

    This site contains a collection of 30 activities coordinated with the book of the same name. Includes links that explore symmetry in flags, quilting, inversions, Escher-type tessellations and even Donald Duck in Mathemagic Land. Some of the activities/links are more accessible and/or useful than others, but it looks like a wonderful resource for teaching symmetry.

    This site contains 16 activities that use varying manipulatives, including tangrams, geoboards, and space cubes. Each activity has different problems within them. There are also Test Previews included on the website. These previews consist of review questions of the different activities supplied on the page. There are also a couple of downloadable geometric games on the website, as well. Some of the activities on the web page deal with tessellations, symmetry, and polygons. I think this is a really good website. It offers different ideas for presenting various topics in geometry.

    Why the computer for informal geometry? Teaching informal geometry works well on the computer because:
    (1) Exploration is encouraged because objects and lines can easily be changed;
    (2) The explorations or products of the students can be easily displayed either on screen or on paper;
    (3) These print-outs or screen displays may easily become part of a porfolio, journal, or other forms of assessment. This kind of documentation is much more difficult to record with manipulatives. Usually one can't the geoboard all set up with rubber bands for any length of time!
    Is the computer a sound tool for thinking? Manipualtives are simply tools for children to think with; the computer provides a different set of tools, but can benefit even young children as a way of seeing how objects relate spatially. The children will be able to keep copies of their explorations and compare earlier work with later work. This is not easy in a manipulatives-only environment. We truly don't "know" something unless it becomes part of our language system. The computer may actually facilitate the use of language in geometry. With manipulatives the student might simply reach over and rotate an object to make it fit with another piece; in the computer environment the student must decide on such commands as Rotate Left or Flip Horizonal, and thereby learn important geometric language concepts in an embedded context.

    MATH LINKS Have you heard of Pascal's Triangle. Very interesting... GEOMETRY Geometry is a favorite of many of my students. This is especially true when we begin the unit on tessalations. A tessalation is any repeating pattern of interlocking shapes. Tessalations are also called tilings. Tilings however, usually refers to patterns consisting of only polygons.
    M. C. Escher
    lived at the turn of the century. He considered himself a graphic artist. His work with tessalations is not only well known but is extremely unique.
    Geometry also lends itself to many other of areas of art as well as that of tessellations. This includes the wonderful symmetry shown in a kaleidoscope and the beauty of colored polyhedras MATH GAMES Do you know fractions? Try you skill with Fresh Baked Fractions

    TESSALATIONS IN INTERIOR DESIGN Introduction A tessalation is a tiling pattern made of polygons. The tiling pattern can be extended so that the tiles cover the plane completely with no gaps. A tessalation is the result of covering a plane surface with a repeated pattern of figures without any spaces between the figures. Ceramic tile, linoleum, and wood flooring are examples of interior designers favorite choices for homes. Many styles, patterns, and colors are available. A herringbone pattern, for example, is made up of parallelograms, a checkerboard pattern is made up of squares, and a honeycomb pattern is made up of hexagons. Task You are an interior designer. You have been hired to create a flooring design that is to be used in a custom home. You will create this design using tessalations. Process I Research tessalations using the following links: Porcelainia Tessalations Tessalations when tessalations are made Process II Design your custom flooring pattern by using a specific polygon or polygons. Create a pattern using your polygon(s) of choice.
