Single Shard Lesson Plan – Math 7th grade
Students will construct an origami frog. They will then measure and find the surface area, perimeter and area of the figure.
Students will construct an origami cap and decorate it with Asian symbols. They will f
ind the surface area, perimeter and area of the figure.Standard 5 – Measurement
7.5.4 – Use formulas for finding the perimeter and area of basic two-dimensional shapes and the surface area and volume of basic three-dimensional shapes, including rectangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, triangles, circles, right prisms, and cylinders.
7.5.6 – Use objects and geometry modeling tools to compute the surface area and the volume of a three-dimensional object built from rectangular solids.

Students will create different types of origami airplanes. They will then measure and find the surface area, perimeter and area of the figure.
Students will compete and see which type of airplane can travel the farthest and try and
figure out why.Students will construct an origami cap and decorate it with Asian symbols. They will find the surface area, perimeter and area of the figure.
