Geometry in Construction

The purpose of this course is to have students experience putting geometry into action by building real world construction projects. Geometry in Construction is taught by both Math and Applied Technology teachers. This interdisciplinary course integrates geometry and construction topics through the building of significant construction projects. The goal is to provide students with a better understanding of both the geometry and the construction content taught in the Math department and prepares students for the subsequent Math courses. Students will gain hands-on, real-world experience in different areas of construction. Additional emphasis is given to teamwork, problem-solving, and the promotion of employable attributes. This is a double-period course that offers both a Math credit and an Elective credit.
