Sixth graders study the concepts of area and dimensions. In this area and dimensions instructional activity, 6th graders work in pairs to complete the handout included that illustrates ways to represent various numbers. Students also...

Study geometry through the concept of quilt design. High schoolers examine the geometric shapes in various quilts and then create their own quilts using geometric shapes that fit together. In the end, they write a paragraph to...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve problems with quadrilaterals. They calculate the sum of the angles, find missing angles and identify properties of quadrilaterals. There are 16 questions with an answer key.

Students calculate probability. In this lesson on probability, students use given data to calculate to chances of a given event occurring. Many of the calculations in this lesson are applicable to daily life.

Students explore the Cartesian coordinate plane and plot points on the graph. They interpret coordinates for a point from the graph and give the ratio of rise over run for slope.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the area of irregular polygons.  The one page worksheet contains three problems.  Solutions are provided.

Seventh graders visualize and identify geometric shapes after applying transformations on a coordinate plane. In this tangrams lesson plan, 7th graders construct a set of tangrams and then answer extension questions related to...

Students explore the concept of the coordinate plane. In this coordinate plane lesson, students graph points on the coordinate plane using an applet. Students graph functions using an applet. Students play a Maze Game where they must...

Students explore arithmetic and numerical patterns. After observing a teacher created function box, students describe a pattern and predict what will "come out" of the function box. They explore patterns such as geometric shapes,...

Learners explore tessellations as well as various types of polygon. Students examine tessellating patterns in the world around them. Learners examine tessellations by creating their own tessellations and completing the included worksheet.

Learners explore growth patterns by using manipulatives such as pattern blocks, investigate growth pattern of pattern, record growth in T-chart, describe how pattern is growing, and predict number of blocks needed to extend pattern.

Students explore perimeter, volume, and area. In this math lesson, students explore how changes in dimensions of geometric shapes affect the perimeter, area and volume of the various shapes. Students investigate the results when the...

Students find the different ratios of a triangle. In this geometry instructional activity, students use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for missing sides and angles on a right triangle. They use a robot to create a right triangle.

Students learn what prime and composite numbers are. They learn how to identify them by working in a group and demonstrating an understanding of one work problem with 100% accuracy using the manipulatives provided.

Students look around classroom and identify any patterns they see, describe patterns and explain why they are patterns, use pencil to demonstrate arithmetic patterns by tapping, practice predicting patterns by using Function Box, and...

Young scholars discover patterns and write conjectures relating to perimeters and polygons. Working in cooperative learning groups, they use manipulatives and graphic organizers to solve problems then answer a series of questions in...

This is an algebra tiles lesson in factoring polynomials. The link found a the bottom of the page links to an index of over two hundred lesson plans in various mathematical topics.

This is the first of two algebra lesson plans from Annenberg Learning. Find plans to teach students how to factor trinomials. This lesson plan is part of a larger workshop for teachers that offer insights into teaching algebra.

Use algebra tiles to explore factoring of polynomials.

The purpose of this task about tiling a kitchen floor is to give young scholars practice in reading, analyzing, and constructing algebraic expressions, attending to the relationship between the form of an expression and the context from...

In this instructional activity, learners will work cooperatively to solve multi-step equations online. The program will allow them to solve the equations and then check their answers. Students lacking the needed skills to complete this...

Students will explore graphing individually and in groups. They will also use an interactive activity to discuss slope and intercepts. To assess the lesson, students will use the floor tiles in the classroom as a large sheet of graph...
