Break out those math manipulatives, it's time to teach about area! Capturing the engagement of young mathematicians, this three-lesson series supports children with learning how to measure the area of squares, rectangles, and other...

Elementary schoolers are arranged in pairs and view the video Math Works: Measurement: The Difference Between Perimeter and Area. They discuss any prior knowledge they have of the term perimeter and then brainstorm together what the...

Turn young mathematicians into landscape architects with this four-lesson series on area and perimeter. Beginning with a basic introduction to calculating perimeter and area using non-standard units of measurement, this...

Discover the difference between area and perimeter. Learners are grouped in twos and threes and each group has one advanced/gifted learner to serve as the peer helper. They receive manipulatives to help them determine the area and...

Students explore perimeter and area of regular and irregular polygons. They experiment with color squares and create different arrangements using the same number squares. Then they compare the area and perimeter measurements of each.

In this perimeter and area lesson plan, young scholars learn the formulas for perimeter and area and view model problems using tiles. Students work in groups to solve practice problems. Young scholars define perimeter and area...

For this geometry worksheet, 10th graders are given real world problems dealing with are and perimeter. They solve using the formulas for area and perimeter. There are 3 problems.

In this finding area worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems using the provided diagram.

Students use tiles to find area. In this finding area instructional activity, students explore how to use square tiles to make shapes, then look at how they can be used to measure area. Students then explore how an area can be covered...

Using different types of paper and paint, young artists will create a beautiful mosaic. This is a great variation from the traditional tile and grout mosaics. Use this beautiful art project to discuss different art mediums,...

Third graders create a butterfly drawing that includes the elements of art and principles of design. They create artwork that can be made into ceramic tiles to be installed around the classroom doorways in our new addition.

Students explore pentominoes in this activity. They build shapes as directed and color the tiles on their grid sheet.

Students explore radial symmetry.  In this 3 dimensional art and geometry lesson plan, students identify examples of radial symmetry in everyday objects. Students create an imprint using radial symmetry on clay tiles.

Pupils discuss current knowledge of pixels. They listen as the teacher explains their importance in picture clarity. Students view the "Pixel Mosaic Animated Movie." Pupils receive pieces of pictures and matching tiles which represent...

Middle and high schoolers re-create a magazine photo or other picture and make it into a drawing using pixels. This fun art project should be a hit with your charges! The materials needed to implement the instructional activity should be...

Help learners translate word problems into algebraic equations. They will rewrite words using symbols and evaluate algebraic expressions using real life scenarios, animation sequences, video presentations, and activities to help students...

Pupils discover the history of mosaics through teacher-lead lectures and discussions. Individuals spend 3-4 weeks creatively constructing mosaic masks using step-by-step design instructions.

Students create outdoor totem poles by creating masks and designing an outdoor painting in the woods. In this totem poles lesson plan, students study Native American culture.

Seventh graders create 3 original tessellation using polygons. They slide, turn, rotate and glide their designs on the computer. They print their tessellation on a T-shirt and teach the 6th graders about tessellations.

Students maximizethe comfort-conditioning of a home.

Students observe and gather data from a model simulated home.  In this efficiency lesson students examine the factors that influence energy efficiency, complete a lab activity then draw conclusions from their data.

Pupils identify, through the number of rows and columns, the factors related to the product. In turn, they also discover how to find the missing factor, which is part of the fact family for that product.

Students participate in a variety of activities to understand statistics. They collect and interpret data. Also students distinguish the difference between a population and a sample. They make inferences and create arguments using data.

Comparing Rectangles is a learning activity that applies skills that compare rectangles.
