In this dodecahedron worksheet, students build a model of a dodecahedron. The pattern for this shape is made up of twelve pentagons. This is a worksheet generator, and the teacher can choose if a sample of the completed shape will be...

Most problems can be solved using more than one method. A worksheet includes just nine questions but many more ways to solve each. Scholars must graph, solve, and justify quadratic problems.

Off they go — launching rockets is fun. The lesson plan contains templates to build paper rockets that can be launched from a PVC pipe launcher. Individuals or groups build the rockets and determine the shapes for their fins. Included...

Double, toil ,and double linear dimensions. Learners first complete an assessment investigating how doubling linear dimensions affects the area of pizzas and the volume of popcorn containers. They then complete an activity investigating...

High schoolers explore the concept of fractals. In this fractals activity, students discuss Sierpinski's Triangle using an applet. High schoolers discuss the patterns involved with fractals. Students discuss the area of Sierpinski's...

Students work collaboratively to design and construct a roof out of Legos for a house that was built in a previous lesson plan. The roof must be structurally sound and pass certain criteria determined by the teacher.

Students investigate geometric shapes by creating figures on a plane. In this polygon lesson, students complete a worksheet based on the angles in a power polygon. Students identify the different types of polygons and define their...

Students experiment with straight edges and compasses to divide lengths into equal parts. They identify different fractions of the total length.

Students experience an Internet fractal scavenger hunt. They write a report on fractals using the Internet and recording the sites where they are located.

First graders use appropriate vocabulary to compare the measurement of the animal he/she is drawing.

Fourth graders use computer drawing tools to create a house of geometric shapes.

Middle schoolers make a rocket out of paper. They follow the given instructions and test to see if it will fly. They write about the experiment and are given the opportunity to change their varibles to make their rocket work.

Students discover the centroid of a triangle based on Euclid's constructions. They explore locus of points of a median. They understand properties of the segments that form the median and areas of the smaller sections formed by the median.

Twelfth graders build a model of the following figures with the base from column I and the cross-section from column II. Draw the base with labeled axes on the graph paper and construct the figure on top of the base with the play dough...

Students discover how engineers determine the best designs for bridge construction. They see how bridge constructions relates Engineering to Geometry. They see the implications and consequences of bridge design on your community/world.

High schoolers differentiate between similarity and congruence using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students label triangles based on their properties. They find missing sides and angles using the interior sum theorem.

Students create a bridge using engineering and geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the missing measures of polygons sides and angles. They work together to solve real life situation using problem...

Students use protractors, strings, and straws to construct a device used to determine the height of tall objects. In this applied geometry lesson, students use common objects to construct a tangent height guide. They use principles of...

Students model three-dimensional objects using cubes. In this geometry lesson plan, students calculate the volume and derived the amount mathematically. They use different objects to create two and three-dimensional objects.

Students identify and define properties of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify the missing sides and angles of right triangles. They use the rules of the Pythagorean Theorem to solve their problems.

Students classify and measure angles.  In this angular activity, students measure, contruct, and classify angles.  They identify angles as acute, right, obtuse, and straight. 

Learners differentiate between translation, reflection and rotation. They explore the 3 types of transformation using Cabri Jr. and build on previous knowledge in this lesson.

Learners explore the concept of fractals. In this fractals lesson, students play the "Chaos Game" via an applet. Learners place dots on the screen to recognize that they have created Sierpinski's Triangle.

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