Robot Geometry Project
Assigned: _________________
Due: ______________________
Create a “Geometric” Robot and label the geometric shapes to show your understanding of geometry
terms and vocabulary. Your robot can be made from recycled, purchased, or hand-made figures. The
rubric below shows what is expected to earn each primary grade. Please check the rubric carefully
before you begin and again before you turn in your robot. This project is due _____ weeks from today.
Grade Expectation
1. Robot must have ALL of
the shapes listed here.
E
2. Shapes must be labeled
to receive an “E”.
3. Write a paragraph
describing how you used
each solid figure and
plane shape. (This is not
a story, but is a
description of the figures
used.
Shapes
Solid Shapes:
 Cube
 Rectangular prism
 Sphere
 Cylinder
 Cone
Plane Shapes
 Square
 Rectangle
 Circle
 Parallelogram
 Triangle
 Trapezoid
 Have at least one line of symmetry labeled

Have at least one pair of congruent shapes labeled
(Same size… same shape = congruent)
Everything in the “E” expectation…
except:
* You did not write a paragraph.
* You did not have at least one
line of symmetry labeled
* You did not have at least one
pair of congruent shapes labeled
All of the shapes are included.
S
Robot is turned in and has most of
the geometric solid figures and
plane shapes listed for an “E”
labeled.
Most of the shapes are included.
N
Robot is turned in and has some
of the geometric solid figures and
plane shapes listed for an “E”
labeled.
Some of the shapes are included.
U
A robot is not turned in.

We hope this project will be a “family” project since we want our students “talking” about the
attributes and characteristics of each shape. Explaining “why” helps children learn to come to a
conclusion. Work with your child, but make sure the child is doing majority of the work. Thank you for
assisting your child in applying the geometric vocabulary in a fun and educational project.
