Geocity Project
Get ready to have some fun while applying your knowledge of geometry! This project will be done in groups of 2 or individually and will mostly be done in class (although you may have to do your finishing touches at home if time runs short). ere!s what you do" #. $ick a theme for your city. %e!ll brainstorm ideas in class. 2. &reate your city' using the guidelines on the rubric (see the back of this sheet). 3. (ring a flat piece of cardboard to class on which to build your city. )o need to go buy anything! *oot around in your garage for an old bo+ and use one smooth side. ,deally' it should be about the same si-e as the bo+ we used for our Te+as salt maps" not much smaller than #. + #/0 not much larger than #/ + 21. .. ,f you!d like to put people' cars' planes' boats' etc. in your city' you may bring mini versions of these from home. This is not a re2uirement. 3ust if you want your city to seem more real. 4. Good luck ... and have fun! 5ue date" 6666666666666666666666666666666666
