Angle Action
Sixth graders investigate the concept of an angle. They classify an angle according to its type. The lesson has students practice with acute, right, and obtuse angles. A unique part is when telling time using clock hands is related to...
Curated OER
Angles
Fifth graders identify different angles according to its type that is determined according to taking a measurement of the degree. They also explore the vocabulary related to the concept.
Curated OER
Geometry and Measurement
Young scholars view a right triangle displayed by the teacher. Students measure legs and the interior angles of the triangle. They look for a pattern or relationship between the legs and angles. Young scholars use pegboards and string to...

Mathematics in Art?
Fifth graders view prints of M.C. Escher's work. They look at examples of geometric figures and polygons and discuss places they have seen them. Students create their own tessellations. They write a report about the process they used in...
Curated OER
Light and Angles
Pupils work together in groups to test light and how it reflects at different angles. They create their own hypothesis and answer questions given to them by their teacher. They complete the experiment at home and test if it changes the...
Curated OER
Angles in Art
Students utilize their handheld and the Angles program to create a non-objective artwork. Images created by famous artists who have utilized angles in their art work are examined.
Curated OER
Lines, Rays, and Angles
Third graders read "Pigs on the Ball" by Amy Axelrod and discuss the geometry concepts presented in the book. They use Twizzler sticks and pipe cleaners to represent lines, rays and angles.
Curated OER
Geometry Slideshow
Sixth graders create slideshows of geometric terms. They use images taken with digital cameras or scanned from magazines.
Beacon Learning Center
Angles and Algebra
Students calculate angle measure for triangles and complementary/supplementary angles. After a lecture/demo, students utilize a worksheet imbedded in this plan to gain practice.
Curated OER
Classifying and Constructing Corners
Fifth graders, after seeing Honeycomb examples, complete a Classifying Angles worksheet, Clock worksheet, and Defining Angles worksheet.
Curated OER
Hey! What Is Your Angle?
Fifth graders create and classify straight, right, acute and obtuse angles. In this clever lesson plan, 5th graders utilize pretzel sticks to form different types of angles. Best of all, they get to eat them at the end!
Curated OER
Heating the Earth
Young scholars explore how the angle of sunlight affects the Earth's temperature and seasons and then apply this understanding to their local situation.
Curated OER
Surveying
Students calculate angles and areas for a surveying project. They gather information and diagram a project. They identify and define surveying principles and terminology.
Curated OER
Hands-On Geometry
Tenth graders construct a variety of geometric shapes and designs using a Mira, Clinometer and Geometry Flash Cards. They complete a worksheet.
Curated OER
Flips, Slides, and Turns
Fifth graders manipulate and draw shapes to demonstrate the concept of flips, slides, and turns using letters and arrows on graph paper.
Curated OER
Lesson Exchange: Polygons (Middle, Mathematics)
Students discover the relationship between the sides of a polygon and the number of diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex, the number of triangles that those diagonals form, and the sum of the interior angles of that polygon.
Curated OER
Making Rectangles
Students study rectangles. In this math lesson, students use numbers, measurements and geometry to draw rectangles of varying sizes.
