Students discover how to measure in one and two dimensional space and calculate how much space any object of a given dimension occupies. After a discussion about dimensions, students work with Zome System Creator Kits to build one and...

Students randomly select dimensions for three geometric shapes (square, right triangle and circle). From the graphs they compare and contrast the graphical results of each shape.

Eighth graders study the visual aspects of poetry and write a poem using the white space to form a poem into the shape of a plus sign.

Students analyze mask visuals provided by the teacher. They experience a paper-mache hands on activity that produces a three dimensional product. Students produce/make a mask.

Students create paper objects called origami. They practice shaping different types and colors of paper into objects while practicing patience and concentration.

Students explore various methods for visualizing the results of hydrogen wave function. They observe trends using a polar plot tool and make plots for the first three energy levels of the radial wave function for hydrogen. Students apply...

Fourth graders explore polygons. In this polygon lesson, 4th graders sort polygons according to their properties. Students discover the connection between polygons and the Greek language.

Fifth graders explore three-dimensional figures. As a class, they discuss the characteristics of various three-dimensional figures. In groups, 5th graders write riddles describing the geometric shape. Partners read each other's...

Pupils create masks from the Italian Renaisance theatre and use them in one-act plays they write. they analyze the role and development of theatre in world cultures.

Third graders discuss how shapes look differently close up and far away. As a class, they examine how artists make three-dimensional space in a two-dimensional painting. They create their own three-dimensional drawing to end the lesson...

Students are introduced to lines, rays, line segments and planes and study the differences between them. They also practice graphing lines, rays, line segments and planes

Second graders describe a polygon in the form of a riddle.

Students use maps to locate information on Egypt, then create their own maps to display knowledge gained from the lesson and Web sites. They recognize, create, and describe the pyramid's geometric shape in three-dimensional forms.

In this geometry learning tool worksheet, students cut the shape out along the dotted lines before folding and gluing it to form a three-dimensional figure.

Upper graders represent multiplication of a two-digit number by a two-digit number as the area of a rectangle with dimensions of the two factors. They find patterns for the number of different base ten blocks in a rectangle representing...

Support third graders with tackling the Common Core Math Standards using this list of vocabulary words. Accompanied by a series of word cards that demonstrate the meaning of each term with examples and images, this resource is great tool...

In this drawing Lewis structures worksheet, learners read about the 5 steps taken to draw Lewis structures for atoms and molecules. These include identifying the valence electrons, placing pairs of electrons between atoms to be bonded,...

Students examine the idea of "regularity" as it pertains to geometry.  In this geometry instructional activity students complete several assignments that are part of trihedral angles and regular polyhedrons.

Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.

Students create a scale model to a castle using the dimensions they were given. They calculate the surface areas and volumes of each section of their castle.

Help your learners examine triangles. Pupils explore the different sizes and measurements of triangles. They discover triangles can be isosceles or scalene, and examine the attributes of triangles. Here is the website where you can...

Set your pupils up to start on geometry by teaching them some introductory terminology. Pupils learn the terms by reading a short passage and looking at examples. They then respond to five questions related to the text.

The objective of this activity is to find the percent of the area of a two squares overlapping. Mathematicians find the ratio of area for the part that overlaps to the rectangle formed. The final answer is a percent as a rate per 100....

Elementary learners explore coin mint dates. First, they listen to the book Alexander Who Used to be Rich Last Sunday by Judith Viorst. They then sort a collection of coins according to their mint date and put them in order from oldest...
