How to Play Geometry Golf
1. Find the perimeter around the board to the nearest cm. ____________ cm
2. Find the area of the board in cm. _________ square cm
3. Shuffle cards. Have definition side up.
4. The first player draws the top card. Read the definition. (Do not turn it over yet.)
5. Find the distance from where you are to where you think the answer hole is. Write the cm distance on your sheet of paper.
6. See how many times it takes to hit the circle to the hole. If it goes off the table, add another hit to your score and put the circle back on the board near where it went off.
7. Turn the card over once you reach the hole. Does the card match the hole? If it does not, you must continue hitting the circle to the correct space. Leave the card near the hole.
8. The next player does steps 4 – 7.
9. If you have 2 players then each do 7 holes. If you have 3 players then each will do 5 holes.
10. The winner is the one with the lowest score.
Alphabet SymmetryName___________
Directions: Look at the letters of the alphabet. Use a mirror to find if the letter has a vertical symmetry, horizontal symmetry, both or none at all. Draw the lines of symmetry on the letter. Organize the letters according to which ones have reflection symmetry into three groups.
1. The letters that have reflection symmetry with a vertical line of symmetry (like the letter A).
2. The letters that have reflection symmetry with a horizontal line of symmetry (like the letter B).
3. The letters that have reflection symmetry with both vertical and horizontal lines of symmetry (like the letter H).
I am Sponge Blob Hex Pants. I am symmetrical. The Left side of my body is a mirror image of my
right side.
Place a mirror vertically on my
body to find my line of symmetry.

Hide your polygon shape in the grid below.
Plot your partner’s coordinates in the grid below.
Directions:
1. Put a book between your desk and your partner’s desk so that your partner can not see your grid.
2. Draw a polygon (triangle, square, rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, rhombus, pentagon, hexagon, octagon) in the top grid. (See example below.)
3 Take turns with your partner using ordered pairs to guess a plotted point. If the point is a hit on a vertex, then put an x at that point. If it is a miss, then circle the point.
4. (3, 2) The first number indicates the number of units to the right of 0. The second number indicates a move up from 0.
5. If you know your partners shape, then tell him/her the name of the shape. Identify the ordered pairs of the shape.
