Curated OER
Geo Jammin' - Day 3, Lesson 11: Poly Doodles All Day
Students explore geometric vocabulary through creation of shapes on a geoboard. They present design attributes, transfer of design, and color-coding components mix to create a fun and exciting lesson that stretches student thinking.
Curated OER
Area Adventure
Students calculate the area of figures using the formula: length x width = area. They solve area problems using paper squares, geoboards, and real-world problems.
Curated OER
Lines and Angles
Sixth graders explore lines and angles. They create visual representations of lines, rays and angles by drawing them on paper and using a geoboard. On paper, 6th graders write a summary of the characteristics of their representations.

Fractions - One-Half and One-Fourth
First graders identify and create the fractions one-half and one-fourth. The teacher first demonstrates how to create the fractions on a geoboard. The students then create one-half and one-fourth of a square, triangle, and a rectangle on...
Curated OER
Triangles
Third graders recognize geometric shapes with acute angles, make geometric shapes with acute angles on geoboards, and draw acute angles on geopaper.
Curated OER
"The Greedy Triangle" by Marilyn Burns
Students review angles, sides, and properties of basic shapes. Using a geoboard, they make as many different tirangles as possible.
Curated OER
Fractions and Halves
Fourth graders examine halves of a whole and discover through activities that they must be exactly equal in size. Working with Geoboards and Dot-Paper Squares, the class practices finding halves that are both congruent and incongruent.

Making Triangles
Students use interactive geoboards to identify simple geometric shapes. In this making triangles lesson plan, students describe the properties associated with geometric shapes. Students develop spatial sense and the mathematical...
GeoGebra
Yardwork in Segments
Stretch your knowledge of ratios to the coordinate plane. The interactive allows pupils to set the endpoints of a directed line segment and form a right triangle. Using rubber bands, users visualize the line segment divided into equal...
Curated OER
Congruent and Similar figures
Eighth graders explore congruent and similar figures. In this eighth grade geometry lesson, 8th graders use geoboards to create congruent and similar figures and explore the relationships between the sides and angles.
Curated OER
Finding the Shape of a Web
Students examine spider webs they find as they explore outside. They make T-chart of the shapes found in two different webs and draw them on geoboard paper. Next, they measure length and width of a spider's web before checking to see if...

Building Quadrilaterals
In this building quadrilaterals worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete ten different problems related to types of quadrilaterals. First, they build the quadrilateral on the given geoboard. Then, students draw the shape named using...
Curated OER
Perimeter and Area
Fifth graders identify the area and perimeter of a rectangle. In this perimeter lesson, 5th graders use geoboards and rubber bands to construct various rectangles. Students use the formula to calculate area and perimeter of the...
Curated OER
Boarding of Symmetrical Shapes
Second graders use geoboards to model polygons and to practice finding lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Geo Jammin By Design: Geo Junction
Students create pictures using a geoboard and straws using the X and Y axis.
Curated OER
Fences and Posts
Fifth graders use Geoboards to demonstrate how shapes can be made by looping the rubber bands over the nails. They make a triangle on their Geoboards. At least one side of the triangle should be either horizontal or vertical. The picture...
Curated OER
Similar or Not?
Fifth graders define the meaning of similar and congruent using concrete objects. They make similar and congruent figures using geoboards. They draw their figures on dot paper, and color their designs.
Curated OER
Lots of Squares
Students work in pairs, to make a square on the geoboards with a rubber band (or draw one on the dot paper). It can be any size and in any location and share their answers with the class.
Curated OER
Shape It
Fourth graders use math software and geoboard paper to design basic shapes. They write individual definitions for the geometric shapes based on what they see in the shapes. They apply their background knowledge of the shape as they write...
Curated OER
Is That Measurement Stuff For Real, Life?
Fifth and sixth graders engage in a series of activities which show them the importance of using different types of measurement strategies. One of the primary goals of the lesson is to show learners that measurement is helpful in many...
Curated OER
Exploring Polygons and The Greedy Triangle
Excellent lesson plan! Anne Linehane's geometry story, The Greedy Triangle, offers an opportunity to practice forming various types of polygons with your learners. Using elastic bands (or Chinese jump ropes),...

Gotcha Covered, Pardner!
Young geometers use the interactive website Cyberchase to practice calculating both area and perimeter. Real world problems encourage learners to discover that we use math each and every day.
Curated OER
Visualizing Multiplication
Upper graders represent multiplication of a two-digit number by a two-digit number as the area of a rectangle with dimensions of the two factors. They find patterns for the number of different base ten blocks in a rectangle representing...
