In this Pick's Theorem learning exercise, students solve and graph 6 different problems that include using Pick's Theorem to solve. First, they use Pick's Theorem to determine the area of the shapes given as well as their own shapes...

Four triangles are depicted for learners to construct on a geoboard. They compute and compare the areas, and so meet one of the sixth grade Common Core standards for geometry. Note that the set of triangles does not include a right...

In this perimeter worksheet, students find the perimeter of shaded areas shown a grids, 2 total. Students write total area in square units. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

It's time for scholars to show what they know about coordinate planes with a collection of three assessments. The exams' objectives include plotting points on a single grid, measuring using the distance formula, and identifying...

Class members investigate rectangles on the coordinate plane. They determine the length of line segments in the coordinate plane with the same x-coordinate or same y-coordinate and then solve geometric problems involving perimeter...

Here is an activity that merges technology with life skills as individuals use Google Earth to explore the differences between coordinate systems and map projections. The self-guided activity is the fourth segment in a nine-part unit....

Young scholars calculate the area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students explore polygons based in their shape and number of sides. They find the formula for the area and use each specific formula for each shape.

Third graders understand the perimeter by units and now find perimeter by addition. In this perimeter lesson, 3rd graders relate their prior knowledge to adding the sides of the perimeter by answering a series of questions.

Students explore measurements of a circle. In this lesson about circumference and radius, students practice calculating measurements of a circle. Students estimate, calculate, and practice with graphing all while learning how to find...

In this area learning exercise, students estimate the are of each shaded figure using the square units. Students then answer two test prep questions about area.

Students are given patterns of trapezoids and are to calculate the area of one trapezoid by using both patterns. They should form a parallelogram and calculate the area. They practice this technique until there is understanding.

Students use their knowledge of area and perimeter to design a fictitious garden fence. In this area and perimeter lesson, students design a garden fence with a set perimeter. They are given the cost per foot of the fence, and determine...
