Students measure planes and solids. In this geometry instructional activity, students find the area and perimeter of different polygons.They complete a word puzzle to review their vocabulary words.

Students practice together measuring the lengths of the sides of various shapes as well as how to change units into other measuring formats. Individually they work on several word problems involving areas and perimeters. Formulating the...

In this lengths, areas and shapes learning exercise, students explore overlapping and non-overlapping patterns. They identify the number of objects in a pattern, determine how the pattern may be folded to create additional patterns, and...

Young mathematicians calculate the area of rectangles and squares. In this geometry lesson, learners are grouped in pairs and use geoboards to construct rectangles. They calculate the area of the figure by counting the number of square...

Eighth graders plot points and investigate polygons. They locate a point, using ordered pairs of integers on the coordinate plane. Students compare geometric measurements and computations on coordinate axes as they are applied to...

These squares and rectangles have length and width measurements with decimals; can young geometers determine the exact perimeter of each? Using a step-by-step example as guidance, they show work to find the perimeter of each of these...

Students investigate the concept of perimeter. They design there own figure and measure the perimeter of it. The lesson plan is given the context of the shape being a path that is traveled by a ladybug. This provides the shape of the...

Students pace a Gunther Chain, a measurement used by foresters to determine distance and area. They discuss that pacing is individualized depending on age, gender, etc. They practice to find an average pace. Teams estimate, pace and...

Your geometers are used to finding the perimeter of a square or rectangle, so give them something different this time! With this lesson, small groups will receive a picture of a shoreline and calculate the perimeter. The website listed...

Students identify diagrams of quadrilaterals and circles by different names and classify the figures. They name the areas for each diagram and practice solving the formulas for each.

Students find the area and perimeter of rectangular figures. They use this information to find patterns and discover relationships between area and perimeter. Students apply and explain formulas relating to perimeter, area, and volume.

Storm into a better understanding of geometry. Using a tornado as a backdrop, scholars practice their skills finding perimeters and areas of rectangles. Learners apply their knowledge of the Pythagorean Theorem to find missing sides of...

Don't let your classes get stuck on area calculations—grab their attention with an inquiry-based lesson! Scholars must develop a plan to determine how may sticky notes it takes to cover the surface of a door. They decide on the...
