Third graders complete a classroom game used to build understanding of two and three-dimensional shapes. Diagonals, sides, regularity, congruency, angle measurements, parallels, perpendicular, faces, and edges are a few of the vocabulary...

Fifth graders use their arm, toothpicks, and marshmallows to create lines, segments, and rays. In this lines, segments, and rays lesson plan, 5th graders learn how these appear on a plane.

Fifth graders participate in a review game of geometry topics. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders use the "Eggspert" interactive classroom game system to review the geometry skills taught that week. Students work in teams to complete...

Students explore probability by using games based on probable outcomes of events. They name all of the possible outcomes of an event and express the likelihood of such an event occurring.

Leading the students to draw a representation of ellipses of planets, this handout will help understanding the planet movement around the sun.  There are ten questions about the analysis of those orbits and a conclusino specifically...

Graph A goes with equation C, but table B. The short assessment task requires class members to match graphs with their corresponding tables, equations, and verbalized rules. Pupils then provide explanations on the process they used to...

Young mathematicians explore the maximun area for patio with the added complexity of finding the mimimum cost for construction. First, they maximize the area of a yard given a limited amount of fence and  plot width v. area on a...

Get a line on the snakes. The assessment task requires the class to determine the species of unknown snakes based upon collected data. Individuals analyze two scatter plots and determine the most likely species for five...

Let's paint the town equal parts yellow and violet, or simply brown. Pupils calculate the amount of blue and red paint needed to make six quarts of brown paint. Individuals then explain how they determined the percentage of the brown...

Many problems in life have more than one possible solution, and the same is true for advanced mathematics. Scholars solve seven problems that all have at least two solutions. Then three higher-level thinking questions challenge them to...

Here is a study guide on transformations that includes reflections, translations, dilations, and rotations. It also has definitions, helpful diagrams, and several examples involving transformations on the coordinate plane. The lesson...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve problems with quadrilaterals. They calculate the sum of the angles, find missing angles and identify properties of quadrilaterals. There are 16 questions with an answer key.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the measures of various angle pairs:  supplementary, complementary, and vertical angles.  The two page worksheet contains a combination of twelve multiple choice and free...

Sixth graders examine a blue print and discuss the reasoning behind using blue prints. In this proportionality lesson,  students collaborate with their teammates to create a scale drawing. Once that is complete, 6th graders write a...

Ninth graders identify quadrilaterals and label the vertices of quadrilaterals. they justify their identification of the quadrilaterals. Students work in groups to identify and create quadrilaterals

Ninth graders investigate quadrilaterals.  In this geometry lesson, 9th graders examine and classify quadrilaterals using the slope, midpoint and distance formulas.  Additionally, students create various quadrilaterals given...

In this expression worksheet, learners evaluate equations, write equations for a specified event, and determine the perimeter of shapes, Six multi-step problems are provided on this one-page worksheet.

Students determine the missing vertices of quadrilaterals. In this rectangles and trapezoids lesson, students examine the characteristics of quadrilaterals. They identify the missing vertices of a quadrilateral on a coordinate plane.

Students find the coordinates of the vertices of special quadrilaterals placed in the coordinate plane. They find the coordinates of missing vertices of squares and parallelograms.

Students identify and interpret the function, usefulness or utitlity, form, beauty or aesthetics, and meaning, context or story, of objects and how they learn new skills and make things that they learn traditionally, by observation and...

Students apply definitions and theorems to verify special quadrilaterals using coordinate geometry. They apply the slope formula, the midpoint formula, and the distance formula to justify that a given quadrilateral is a parallelogram....

Students identify tangents, chords and secants. In this geometry lesson, students graph circles and identify angles created by secant lines, tangent lines and chords.

An outstanding lesson plan on teaching the basic shapes and polygon names to young geometers is here for you. In it, learners investigate the role of basic polygons in the strength of structures. They use geoboards, rubber bands,...

All triangles have some things in common. Using these properties of triangles, learners find missing angle measures. Scholars use the Angle Sum Property and properties of special triangles throughout the lesson.
