Topology and Geomery

For Teachers 6th - 9th
Young scholars relate topology to polygons. In this geometry lesson plan, students make the connection between different shapes and topologically equivalent relationships. They use Mobius strips to create and move shapes around.

Dough Lake Topology

For Teachers 9th - 12th
High schoolers practice coordinates and measurements, develop 2D, 3D topological map, construct grid with string on real surface, establish "level" fixed point for measurements, take and record data points of elevation, and enter data on...

Math: Seifert Surface

For Teachers 6th - 8th
Students use wire to make knots and submerse them in pans of detergent to observe how the soap film clings to the wire. They discover this film is called the Seifert Surface. After drawing pictures of the surface, they discuss what...

Euler Characteristic

For Teachers 9th - 11th
Students identify the different properties of Euler's Characteristics. In this geometry lesson, students identify the shape and surface a polygon. They relate the concept of Euler to solving real world problems.
