Students explore geometry by utilizing computer software. In this shape identification lesson plan, students define several geometric shapes by the characteristics that classify them. Students draw and cut out geometric shapes using...

Tenth graders explore mathematics by participating in hands-on daily activities. Learners identify a list of different shapes and classify them by shape, size, sides and vertices. They utilize tangrams and geometric pieces to gain...

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

Students study triangles. In this triangle lesson plan, students compare and classify triangles while milling to music. Students will also trade triangles so they can match up with other similar triangles. Triangles are provided.

Learners explore geometry by drawing various shapes in class. In this triangle characteristics lesson, students identify the attributes that classify a shape as a triangle and practice using their bodies to create triangles in class....

Students classify angles. In this angles lesson, students explore the characteristics of angles, triangles, quadrilaterals and circles. They identify polygons and sing a classifying angles song. Students participate in a manipulative...

Students explore geometry by completing a math worksheet in class. In this shape identification lesson, students identify the characteristics associated with 15 solid geometric shapes. Students identify patterns between vertices, edges...

Students complete various small group activities to classify items and determine the types of combinations that can be made with these items. In the second lesson plan, students create menus for a restaurant to help them gain money sense...

Tenth graders explore the role that collisions and near collisions of galaxies play in determining the shape of galaxies. They model the collision of disk shaped and spherically shaped galaxies.
