Features:

Polyhedral characters guide kids on an awesome exploration of Planet Geometry. Students learn about attributes of shapes and solids, constructions and transformations, 2D and 3D coordinates and the relationship between length, perimeter, area and volume and much more.

The Geometry Academy helps students learn about geometry terminology and famous mathematicians. Kids can experiment with hands–on geometric models.

Players navigate a 3D labyrinth while solving for the relationships between length, angle, perimeter, area, dimension, surface area and volume. Every question leads deeper into the maze.

Students can choose the Robot Studio where they use translations, rotations and reflections to assemble a robot on a 2D coordinate grid. Robot will dance in a 3D space.

This exciting Geometry program, part of the acclaimed Mighty Math series appeals to parents and kids. In–depth educational content is integrated into challenging games and activities.

AGES: 12 to 14

Robots Dance Through Geometric Transformations! Build robots and choreograph their actions in Octa, the octahedron’s, Robot Studio. Use translations (slides), rotations (turns), and reflections (flips) to assemble your robot on a 2D coordinate grid, then make it dance in a 3D space. Predict and test solutions, search for patterns, and build spatial awareness as you direct and test your robot’s moves.

Sizzling Symmetrical Patterns Spring to Life! Choose a shape. Now pull it, stretch it and fill it with color or art in an interlocking, symmetrical pattern. You've made a tessellation! At the Tessellation Creation Station you develop artistic creativity while exploring shapes, patterns and symmetry.

Explore Geometric Relationships in a 3D Maze! Enter Amazing Angles and help Dodeca the dodecahedron navigate the 3D labyrinth he calls home. Unlock secret rooms and discover new paths by solving for the relationships between length, angle perimeter, area, dimension, surface area, and volume. Every path leads to new questions, and every question leads deeper into the maze.

Graduate from the Geometry Academy! Enroll at the Geometry Academy to learn about geometry terminology and famous mathematicians, and experiment with ‘hands–on’ geometric models. Hexa, the hexahedron and chief reference librarian for Planet Geometry, is your guide!

Geometry Goes to the Movies! You’re the director in GeoMovies! Tetra, the tetrahedron, provides tools you can use to solve problems and build intricate geometric constructions that you view as movies. ‘Scene’ and ‘Ideas’ buttons provide starting points for creative expression.

Amazing 3D Technology! This brings Planet Geometry and its polyhedral inhabitants to life. You’ll have a blast exploring the 3D landscape of the main plaza as you navigate your new vehicle through fractal trees, around a polyhedral fountain, and past the unique features and buildings of the planet. Collect special tools to enhance your vehicle as you accomplish your tasks at each station. You can also create geometrical artwork and ‘publish’ the results on the main plaza for others to see as they explore the planet’s surface.

Mighty Math’s Grow Slide! Automatically records your progress and adjusts to guide your learning. The activities in Cosmic Geometry offer dozens of math topics and hundreds of problems. As you learn and progress, the Grow Slides advance, offering more challenging problems.
