As the Bird Flies
Young scholars investigate the properties of lines and congruent triangle theorems as well as apply geometric properties and relationships to real-world mathematical problems. Given two different scenarios, they examine maps that have...
Curated OER
The Geometry of Means
In this geometry worksheet, students are given a rectangle and a square. They verify ratios when given equal perimeters or areas. Students are given adjacent squares. They find the distance between the centers, and identify the means...
Curated OER
Exploring Altitudes in Math
Students draw and calculate altitudes. They draw the altitude of acute, right and obtuse triangles and calculate the altitude of a triangle using the Pythagorean theorem.
Curated OER
Try An Angle
Fifth graders classify the different triangles by sides and angles. They discover how many different ways they can arrange 2, 3, 4 ...7 tangram pieces to create triangles. They classify and label the six triangles on their pattern sheet.
Curated OER
Origami Frogs
Ninth graders explore a variety of geometry and science concept while making an origami frog. The fold paper into the shape of a frog and conduct measurement activities including frog leaps.
Curated OER
The Diagonal Of A Box
Students solve problems using the pythagorean theorem. They use critical thinking skills in order to use a systematic process to solve the problem. Upon solving each problem the uniqueness of the lesson is asking students to give an...
Curated OER
Tangram Perimeters
Students work together to make figures out of tangram squares. In groups, they calculate the measurements they need and apply the Pythagorean Theorem. They complete a worksheet solving equations using the theorem and review their answers.
