Eighth graders practice using basic measurements to solve word problems.They also investigate finding the perimeter of different polygons and define the characteristics to classify the shape as a polygon.

Students investigate the concept of tessellations and how they are formed using angles. They categorize how different patterns do and not tessellate and separate them into two different places for assessment. The teacher draws examples...

In this construction geometric shapes worksheet, student use the software program for instruction then construction shapes and bisect angles for four questions.

Sixth graders explore symmetry and discuss the difference between a rotation and reflection. Using hands-on activities, such as folding paper shapes, they discover how to find the lines of symmetry and symmetrical characteristics. As a...

Students, as a final project, draw a picture of their ideal neighborhood on a sunny day. In addition to the sun, their drawings include homes, trees, streets, and selected objects. Each object in their drawing has a written description...

Eighth graders engage in a instructional activity that is concerned with examining two dimensional figures with different properties that include circles, triangles, queadrilaterals, etc... They identify the types of figures that is...

Learners explore the relationship between flat and three-dimensional shapes. They identify the names of 3-D shapes and construct cubes from squares.

Young scholars study rectangles. In this math lesson, students use numbers, measurements and geometry to draw rectangles of varying sizes.

In this geometry worksheet, students identify the missing angles of non right triangles using the angle sum theorem. They solve for the unknown using algebra. There are 21 questions.

Students explore the properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They use Cabri technology to create polygons and solve problems.

For this geometry worksheet, students solve problems using the similarity and congruent theorem. They find the vertices and different parts of polygons using theorems. There are 18 questions.

For this math worksheet, learners draw quadrilaterals and also find the sums of the inner angles for each. They practice drawing rhombuses as unique quadrilaterals.

Students explore measurements by analyzing geometric shapes. In this surface area activity, students identify the terms volume, weight, perimeter and area in order to find the requested measurements of specific polygons. Students utilize...

In this geometry worksheet, learners use the inequality theorem to figure out if three segments will make a triangle. They are given the measures of two segments and must figure out the third segment on their own. There are 20 questions.

Students read the book The Math Curse by Jon Scieszka and study geometry. For this geometry lesson, students identify geometric shapes and their properties. Students create a geo-critter.

Students perform reflections and translations of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform reflection in two parallel lines. They use Cabri to observe the transformation and rotations of each shape.

Pupils calculate the perimeter of shapes. For this geometry lesson, students relate properties of polygons to the real world. They find length, midpoint and slope.

Young scholars identify properties of trapezoids. In this geometry lesson, students are put into groups and use computer programs to analyze polygons. They drag and move the shapes around as they make predictions.

Students investigate the properties of two and three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate polygons based on similarity and congruence. They make observation and interpret the data.

Students build and create using math. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between congruent and similarity as they observe polygons. They create robots with different functions using properties of geometry.

Using a word bank, mathematicians fill out a crossword puzzle using 9 clues. Each clue describes a shape, using details such as the number of sides, angle degrees, and the shape category. For example: "A quadrilateral with four equal...

Students establish classifications of shapes by various properties (angles, sides, etc.). They introduce the important properties of common shapes. Students develop an awareness of the wide variety of ways the 2-D shapes can be alike.

Students discover rules for single transformations, rules for composition of transformations, when a figure has transformation symmetry, and if a transformation is congruent to its preimage.

First graders draw and describe various types of polygons. they investigate their own environments for examples of polygons. After reading the book, The Greedy Triangle, they discuss everyday objects that are polygons. They create shape...
