In this math worksheet, students eliminate the parameter to find a Cartesian equation of the curve given by the parametric equations.

Students investigate the usage of parallel and perpendicular shapes in the real world. For this geometry lesson, students investigate shapes for properties that are related to the real world. They relate all the properties of shape tot...

In this grade 5 reading quiz, 5th graders complete a 26 question multiple choice quiz covering a variety of grade 5 reading concepts. Answers may be submitted on-line.

Students are introduced to the concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation. They practice translating, reflecting, and rotating two-dimensional objects on the coordinate plane. students use computers to learn about the three concepts.

Students explore different types of quadrilaterals. Students define the terminology used with quadrilaterals. They create particular quadrilaterals based on specific characteristics of the quadrilaterals using an online tool.

In this math worksheet, students look for the properties related to each shape and then fill in the graphic organizer with the categories needed.

In this math activity, students complete the practice exam that asks for the solution to the parametric equation. Also they name the perpendicular line in relation to it.

Students examine geometric shapes. In this geometric shape lesson plan, students examine how geometric shapes flip, turn, and slide to create a pattern. Students analyze the role that quilts played in helping slaves escape to freedom. ...

Third graders represent fractions as part of a whole. In this fractions lesson plan, 3rd graders use manipulatives to show how a fraction is a part of a whole. This lesson plan includes individual practice and an assessment instead of...

Students examine new shape possibilities by combining two and four triangles using manipulatives.

Students, in groups, estimate measurments and then select the tools needed and measure various items at Black Bayou Lake refuge.

Third graders use fractions to describe part of a set. In this fractions lesson, 3rd graders are introduced to fractions through a book and use pattern blocks to describe a fraction as a part of a set. This lesson includes a scripted...

Young scholars create their own Chinese tangrams using in-class direction and prior knowledge in this two-day lesson for the early elementary classroom. Chinese toys are also explored.

Students explore the concept of minerals. In this minerals lesson, students discuss how cooling affects the size of crystals. Students discuss how the structure of minerals is a tetrahedron. Students discuss the structure of silicates...

These activities provide an opportunity for students to explore the area formulas for triangles, trapezoids, and parallelograms.

Given composite figures (combinations of rectangles, squares, parallelograms, trapezoids, triangles, semicircles, and quarter circles), students will be able to determine expressions for the area as well as calculate the area of the figure.

Given information about composite fiugres, the student will determine the area of composite 2-dimensional figures comprised of a combination of triangles and parallelograms using appropriate units of measure.

Demonstrates how to calculate the area of two-dimensional shapes using formulas. Covers parallelogram, triangle, trapezoid, and circle. Includes a video modeling how to find the area of a circle and a triangle. [0:59]

Students learn to derive the formula for the area of a circle. They learn to relate a circle to a parallelogram and rectangle while learning the concept of infinity as they imagine slicing an circle into infinitesimally small slices.

Determine the area of a parallelogram with this step by step interactive lesson.
