Students investigate basic geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson, students explore solids through measuring and modeling. This assignment models the importance of understanding concrete objects in geometry.      

Seventh graders participate in a lesson that is focused upon the concepts of classifying different angles and triangles. They practice classifying triangles according to its kind that includes types of angles, congruence, and vertices....

In this waves activity, students define 23 vocabulary words associated with the different types of waves and how waves are measured. Students complete 23 matching terms with definitions and draw the superposition of two waves shown.

Learners graph linear equations and then find the person in class whose linear equation graph is perpendicular to theirs. For this graphing inequalities lesson plan, students graph their perpendicular slopes and then once their find...

Students review primary colors and practice making straight lines. In this visual arts lesson, students paint simple shapes as large as a toothpick, using specific primary colors. During the construction of the shapes students are...

Students display knowledge of line of symmetry by designing a geometric stained glass window pattern.

Seventh graders investigate the mathematical concept of a sector. They apply the concept to an example problem and then move into a more complex application. They find the area of the side of a cone. This is done as students calculate...

Students make a simple sundial to examine the changes in shadows over time. In this sundial and shadow lesson, students make a simple sundial out of a manila folder and pencil. They observe how shadows change over time, and relate it to...

Students explore differents types of triangles and quadriaterals. For this polygon lesson, students  model identify and compare two and three dimensional geometric figures. Students create tangrams and discover the difference...

Review context clues with your young readers using this helpful resource. Eight questions contain a missing word that pupils choose out of five options. The sentences provide ample context clues, making the choice more about test-taking...

Students investigate the concepts of geometry that can be grouped into a flip book that can be used for teaching and review purposes. They define the differences between two and three dimensional figures. Also polygons are reviewed and...

Bring out the inner artist with this Abraham Lincoln lesson plan. Elementary students work on a home project creating a hat similar to Abraham Lincoln's hat. They will use geometry and measurement to create the scale of the hat, then...

Students calculate the area of a parallelogram. In this geometry activity, students perform translation using a coordinate plane and coordinate pairs. They perform translation on other polygons.

Students calculate the area of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of parallelograms and use to to solve problems. They create polygons using Cabri software.

Learners investigate the side splitter theorem. In this geometry lesson, students estimate and solve problems dealing with ratios and proportions. They identify angles created by lines that are parallel.

Third graders measure time and length. Through the use of video and technology, they explore key elements of measurement, such as units and conversion between units. They explore alternate units of measurement and apply measurement to...

Fifth graders create a reflection of a poygon using a Mira. They discover that a line connecting a vertiex of a polygon and the corresponding vertex of its reflection is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Students create a glide...

In this geometry worksheet, students create a map that uses various geometrical concepts. The final project is the creation of a "geometrical town." Rubric for grading is included.

Young scholars explore the concept of polygon properties. In this polygon properties lesson, students draw polygons with different numbers of sides such as pentagons, octagons, hexagons, etc. Young scholars identify different geometric...

This activity has students discover the relationship between parallel and perpendicular lines and their slopes. After constructing these objects using CABRI Geometry II for the TI-89, slopes are measured. [Requires Adobe Reader.]

Understand the step-by-step processes used to create accurate geometric figures.

Learn all about the basic geometric constructions in this test prep lesson. You will explore line segments and points, and understand key terms like the terms parallel and perpendicular. Construction activities and interactive online...

Students learn how to construct parallel and perpendicular lines. The resource consists of video demonstrations.

In this activity, students use the Cabri software to mark points, draw lines, construct parallel and perpendicular lines, angles, bisectors, and triangles. They learn how to use the tool to measure angles.
