Google Earth Voyager Story: Architectural Prisms, Part 1

Google Earth Voyager Story: Architectural Prisms, Part 1

In this Google Earth Voyager story visit architectural landmarks in New York City to learn about the geometry of prisms. In this lesson, visit the Flatiron Building and learn about triangular prisms. Then build a scale model of the Flatiron Building.

This is part of a collection of Google Earth Voyager Stories that use Google's mapping technology to explore relevant math stories. To see the complete collection of the Google Earth Voyager Stories, click on this link.

Note: The download is the teacher's guide.

    About Media4Math

    Our Mission

    Media4Math's mission is to educate 21st-century students in real-world applications of math with digital technology. We bring math to life in your classroom with a rich blend of resources to inspire your students to learn. Our philosophy is that the procedural side of math is a prerequisite to using it, but we also find that real-world math applications can provide motivation and even inspiration for math students. Math is its own language and it has important stories to tell. While many of our resources are for procedural skills, there are many resources that are real-world applications of math. Some of these resources rely on partnerships with other educational publishers.
