Construction Math and Geometry for Middle School

This course is designed to provide middle school students with practical math skills essential in construction. The focus will be on measurements, geometry, area, volume, angles, and spatial reasoning, all within the context of real-world construction problems. By the end of the course, students will be able to apply mathematical principles to blueprints, scaling, and building layouts.

Assessment Methods

• Weekly quizzes on concepts like measurements, angles, and volume.
• Group projects for blueprint reading and construction problem-solving.
• Final project presentation to assess comprehensive understanding.

Materials Needed

• Rulers, tape measures, protractors, and calculators
• Printer and the ability to Read PDF
• Simple building materials (for hands-on activities)

This course integrates math in practical, real-world contexts, encouraging students to develop both their construction knowledge and mathematical skills in a way that’s both engaging and applicable to future endeavors.
