Playground Design Project

Students will create a playground using geometric shapes. The scale will be 1cm to 1 meter on grid paper. An attached page with: the area, perimeter and volume calculations; showing geometric shapes and angles. For the playground you will identify the playground equipment and playground layout.

Playground Design
	Approaching 3 pts	Meeting 7 pts	Exceeding 10 pts
Geometry Content	Approaching Few of the required shapes or angles were shown in playground design. Scale drawing does not use aerial perspective.	Meeting Most of the required shapes were used to create playground design and were indicated on the plans, including various types of angles. Mostly correct aerial perspective.	Exceeding All of the shapes listed were shown in the plans, as well as all of the different types of angles. Includes sketches of structures and correct aerial perspective on the grid plans.
Creativity and Neatness	Approaching Basic drawing only, few correct measurements or labels for shapes and angles.	Meeting Most lines were drawn straight, most structures were measured and drawn correctly. Scale use is largely correct, and many interesting structures represented.	Exceeding Lines and shapes were drawn correctly to show precise measurement. Structures are drawn accurately and to scale, with many interesting ideas for playground structures.
Calculations	Approaching There are incomplete calculations for area, perimeter and volume.	Meeting There are complete calculations for area, perimeter and volume. Measurements are used accurately, although there may be some errors.	Exceeding There are essentially no errors in calculations. There are complete calculations for area, perimeter and volume. Measurements are used accurately, and there are calculations for more than one structure.
Presentation	Approaching Describes very few shapes used or playground features, is unable to describe calculations.	Meeting Speaks clearly. Describes some of the features of the playground and and the shapes that were used.	Exceeding Speaks clearly and confidently. Describes all features of the playground, what shapes were used and is able to describe calculations.
