How many school days are left?
Why are you doing your independent project?  Not just because it is a large part of your final grade.
Today you must turn in:
1.  Detailed sketch of your 3-D model or presentation with dimensions and list of materials
2.  Rough or final draft of your freehand sketch

Remember the required project components:
1. Research (teach us a lot about our topic)
2.  Freehand sketch related to your project (something you will be proud to display)
3. ADI or other electronic product related to your topic
4. 3-D model related to your project (something you will be proud to display) 
5.  A presentation on Friday, May 15, 2015

Create a single sheet of paper with an example and directions for each geometric construction.  We will do the following together.
1.  Drawing isosceles and equilateral triangles.
2. Inscribing in a circle: square, equilateral triangle, hexagon.
3. Dividing a line segment into n parts.

Then in small groups, work on adding to your sheet.  Each person in each group is responsible for four sets of directions to share with your group.  Finally, each group should create a poster per the directions to share Wednesday.
