Who Am I? (Middle School)
Third graders complete a classroom game used to build understanding of two and three-dimensional shapes. Diagonals, sides, regularity, congruency, angle measurements, parallels, perpendicular, faces, and edges are a few of the vocabulary...
Curated OER
Around and Around We Go
Fourth graders discover that a polygon is a closed figure formed by line segments, and that the perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the lengths of its sides. They utilize a worksheet imbedded in this plan to gain lots of practice with...
Curated OER
Polygons
Fourth graders identify and describe lines, shapes, and solids using formal geometric language. They use Inspiration to create a graphic organizer and outline of polygons.
Curated OER
Mimicking Nature; Science, Aviation, Flight, Wings
Students consider the relationship between form and flight and investigate the history of man made flight and how wing shape and flexibility affects the maneuverability of an aircraft.

Curated OER
Lines, Rays, Line Segments, and Planes
Pupils are introduced to lines, rays, line segments and planes and study the differences between them. They also practice graphing lines, rays, line segments and planes
Curated OER
Geometry in Tessellations
Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.
