Students use this App to draw two-dimensional shapes and representations of three-dimensional cubes. [Requires Adobe Reader.]

For this lesson, learners will learn to incorporate elements and principles of hair design to enhance facial shapes. The students will be able to relate hairstyles and facial structures to provide optimal hair designs for males and females.

Students' use a motion detector to examine how different types of motion affect the shape of the distance versus time plot. They explore how changes in direction and other factors affect the shape of the plot.

Archeologists, when classifying artifacts, often take note of the physical properties or attributes of artifacts, such as the materials from which the artifacts are made, and their size, shape, function, and decoration. Friezes are often...

Computer simulation allows learners a realistic and risk-free way to experiment with different face shapes, skin tones, anatomical proportions, and hair texture and visualize how various hairstyles will appear on the client. Students...

Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a two dimensional design, and use the calculator to determine the value of the design.

Students use the Explorer Draw application to draw two-dimensional figures. They understand how to write commands to draw squares and hexagons. They also calculate the perimeter of the figures drawn. [Requires Adobe Reader.]

The Royal British Columbia Museum discusses the role that Italians played in shaping the province. Italian workers were instrumental with the gold rush, with coal mines and with the construction of the railroad. The Italian Community...

In this activity, students will explore the properties of rotations and the relationships between the original and image figures.

In this activity, students calculate the surface area and volume of different shaped cell models. They develop an understanding of the differences in cells and their function

In this activity, students will graph the height of a ball versus time after it is dropped from some height. They will then examine one ball bounce and investigate the parameters that effect the shape of the graph. They will also explore...

The students will discover the shape of the sine function without creating a t-chart. The students will create a sine function using toothpicks. The students will then discover how the amplitude (height) and the period (number of compete...

Students can use the data to explore the relationship between area and perimeter for rectangles and circles and they will make generalizations about the shape of the rectangle that will produce the smallest perimeter.

Photos of slides and genetics charts accompany the text and explain the differences between sickle cell train vs. sickle cell anemia, symptoms of sickle cell disease, secondary diseases/conditions associated with sickle cell, mechanism...

This lesson is a unique and fun way to review perimeter, angles, and types of adjectives. Students pick an object from the classroom that will fit in a paper lunch bag. They investigate their object and fill in the attached sheet. You...

During this activity, middle schoolers will create nets for prisms. They will find the volume and surface area of the shapes. They will also use interactive activities to review three-dimensional shapes.This lesson plan was created as a...

Students will identify objects as translucent, transparent, or opaque. Upon seeing the shadow of the opaque object, students will identify the geometric figure created by the shadow.This lesson plan was created as a result of the Girls...

The learners will explore angles, rays, line segments, perpendicular lines, parallel lines, and two-dimensional figures through the use of the book Shape Up! Fun With Triangles and Other Polygons by David A. Adler. They will also...

In this lesson, students will identify the characteristics of a quadrilateral. Students will have a chance categorize quadrilaterals into subgroups such as squares, rhombuses, rectangles, and nonregular quadrilaterals. This lesson using...

This activity allows students to discover the number Pi. By measuring real life objects, students will get to see where the number Pi comes from as well as how the circumference formula is derived.This lesson plan was created as a result...

Students will calculate the diameter, circumference, and ratio of a real world object. Students will create an electronic slideshow to illustrate the process of determining the diameter, circumference, and ratio of these objects.

In this exploration, students will apply their knowledge of finding volume and surface area of cylinders and rectangular prisms. Students will make recommendations to the local movie theater after determining which package is cost...

The students will find the area of each two dimensional figure on a net of a triangular prism. In groups, students will cut out the net and create a triangular prism. Groups will then discuss how to find the lateral area and the total...

The students will find the area of each two dimensional figure on a net of a rectangular prism. In groups, students will cut out the net and create a rectangular prism. Groups will then discuss how to find the lateral area and the total...
