Young scholars create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry instructional activity, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate...

If members of your class wonder where they can use the math they learn in middle school, let them discover the answer. Learners apply geometry concepts of scale and measure to calculate the costs of framing a house addition.

So many shapes in our vast oceans. Young explorers can discover new shapes in a variety of ways in this instructional activity. One way is having free exploration with a pattern shape kit handed out by the teacher. Another is...

Students participate in a series of hand-on, online, and multimedia activities to examine 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes. They describe common geometric solids. They construct rectangular prisms using straws and ribbon.

Students investigate nets as they relate to volume and area. In this geometry instructional activity, students use nets as a visual to deepen their understanding of surface area and volume of objects. They make conjectures about...

Students investigate the creation of three dimensional drawings. In this geometry lesson, students analyze and complete orthographic drawings. They Cabri software to manipulate and move the drawings around.

Students investigate orthographic drawings. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of three dimensional drawings in space. They solve problems using volume and area formulas.

Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...

Pupils estimate and measure exact. In this geometry lesson, students create different object in three-dimensional pattern. They use SketchUp to create their shape and perform measurements on their shapes.

Students define and identify shapes by name. In this geometry lesson plan, students construct, identify and compare polygons based on the number of sides. They classify each shape based on their angle sum theorem.

Students calculate the surface area and volume of a sphere. For this geometry lesson, students define nets, surface areas and volume of prisms, pyramids, cylinders and cones. They use the computer to create nets and analyze shapes.

Seventh graders investigate the area and volume of 2D and 3D figures. In this geometry lesson plan, 7th graders create a storyboard explaining their knowledge of 2D and 3D shapes. They analyze their data and interpret their...

When it comes to rating educational calculators, this calculator is always near the top of this list. Now it's available as an app. There is a lot of calculator power wrapped up in this app. Not only is this a fully functioning...

We landed on the moon with less computing capabilities than you can find in this app! Here is a multiple function calculator that takes all the power you get from a handheld and adds the wonderful large screen that only a tablet can...
