Each year during the first marking period students discovered the patty paper and compass/straightedge constructions through guided activities in class.  At the conclusion of the unit the students were asked to make their own "How To" booklet on all the constructions.

 

The Booklet had to have directions on how to do each of the constructions

Constructions had to be done with patty paper and compass and straightedge.

The student also had to solve two problems from the textbook.

An option was to do the nine point circle.
