Put the tree back in geometry! Explore shapes and celebrate Christmas while using pentagon, square, and triangle pattern blocks to create a Christmas tree.

What do a bunch of rhombuses, squares, and pentagons create? A snowman on a pattern block mat! Let young mathematicians explore shapes to create patterns in this hands-on activity worksheet.

Sidewalk patterns ... it's definitely not foursquare! Learners investigate patterns in sidewalk blocks, write an expression to represent the pattern, and then solve problems using the expressions.

Reinforce number sense with a collection of math lessons for kindergarteners through fifth graders. Young mathematicians take part in hands-on activities, learning games, and complete skills-based worksheets to enhance proficiency...

Kick-start children's education with this pre-school math unit. Offering 31 different hands-on learning activities that develop young mathematicians' pattern and shape recognition, basic number sense, and much more, this is a...

Don't leave this task on the shelf — use it is assess middle schoolers understanding of patterns. Participants try to discover a pattern in the number of bricks and planks used to make shelves. They then match descriptions...

Patch up any misconceptions about writing functions. Scholars undertake a performance task that has them first examine a pattern in patchwork cushions. They represent the patterns in triangular and rectangular blocks using a table and as...

In a two-part activity, young geometers examine 3-D shapes and describe their attributes in a table. They will be able to draw the shape and name the number of vertices, faces, and edges. In the second part, individuals explore nets...

Help learners find joy in facing mathematical challenges. The questions posed on this instructional activity encourage young mathematicians to utilize skills learned throughout a geometry unit, and to apply themselves and persevere...

Teach your class to think outside the box. Scholars use the concept of equality to solve a problem in the assessment task. They determine how to use a scale to identify the one box out of a set of nine boxes that is heavier than the others.

Using base ten blocks, students will develop the concept of ten more and ten less, moving from concrete representation to understanding of the unit of ten within ten more and ten less. Included is a detailed lesson plan with many...

For this lesson, students will create a class quilt of nine patch paper quilt blocks using geometry.
