Fish Tale


🐠In this updated activity, students will apply the Pythagorean Theorem in both 2D and 3D (basic) contexts to explore distances in an aquarium. Begin with the starter activity to spark curiosity, followed by problem-solving that reinforces right triangle concepts and spatial reasoning. Two optional challenges (see solutions & supporting materials section) provide opportunities for deeper exploration!

📝 Suitable for 8 & 9th graders
45–60 minutes, depending on discussion and extensions
