The Improving Students' Understanding of Geometry Grant supports the development of activities that will enable students to better appreciate, understand, and apply some aspect of geometry that is consistent with adopted standards and connects to a context outside of mathematics. Applicants must currently be teaching one or more grades at the PK-8 level. The primary applicant must be a current (on or before the application deadline) Essential or Premium member of NCTM. Past recipients of this grant are not eligible to reapply. The developed activities should include applications of geometry, for example, to art, literature, music, science, architecture, nature, or some other relevant area. Activities may integrate the use of technology into the teaching of geometry. Proposals must address geometry content, the link between the Geometry Standards and the project's content and activities, and the anticipated impact on students' learning. Applicants must submit a letter of support from the principal of their school, which confirms the teaching status of the applicant and indicates strong support for the proposal and the applicant's ability to accomplish it.
