Geometry Performance Tasks

These tasks were created by AAESA teachers in conjunction with the Linda Jordan Performance Tasks Series in 2013-14.  The tasks below are math-related, and are excellent examples of performance tasks.  These tasks have not been peer-reviewed or tested at this time.  They are DRAFTS only.
