Students complete a variety of activities surrounding minerals, crystals, and mineralogy. They locate common minerals on a world map, complete a lab in which they identify the chemical and physical properties of various minerals, etc.

Students make colorful triangles known as Sierpinski's Carpet, using colored pencils and paper.

Eighth graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with examining two dimensional figures with different properties that include circles, triangles, queadrilaterals, etc... They identify the types of figures that is identified as polygons.

Eighth graders practice using basic measurements to solve word problems.They also investigate finding the perimeter of different polygons and define the characteristics to classify the shape as a polygon.

Fourth graders determine a way to place numbers in the nine circles that are arranged in a triangular pattern so that each side has an equal sum. They use each number once and practice adding single digit numbers.

Students explore the making of circles and concepts related to them in geometry. The project is inquiry based will focus upon students making their own nametags. The construction is ideal for hands on students.

Sixth graders apply knowledge of how to calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They determine why it is inappropriate to measure the area of land by its perimeter which is done in certain areas of New Guinea. They complete a...

Young scholars use pattern blocks and triangular grid paper to review shape names, be introduced to the concept of a tiling of the plane, and determine which pattern blocks tile the plane. They are asked: "Have you ever seen a floor or...

Students use a grille to investigate geometry. The application of the geometric figure, which is square, the students begin the coding of a message. The use of cryptography is used to reinforce algebraic ideas.

Students explore tessellations. They are shown a selection of shapes. Students identify shapes that tessellate and justify their answer. Students create their own tessellation.

Learners examine a selection of shapes and identify which shapes tessellate and why. They design and make a pattern which involves translation, reflection, or rotation. Students describe the features of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional...

Students observe a selection of shapes. They identify which shapes will tessellate and justify their answer. Students apply the symmetry and angle properties of polygons to create tessellations.

Students use translations, rotations, and reflections to create tessellations. They explore and construct several different types of tessellations including pure/semi-pure and non-regular polygon and "Escher-like" tessellations .

Fifth graders participate in a class activity that helps them learn some geometric terms along with their definitions. They describe relationships between two and three-dimensional shapes and analyze attributes and properties of...

For this religion worksheet, students examine the Star of David as a symbol of Judaism by completing 10 questions in a word puzzle which reveals a secret word.

In this math worksheet, students explore geometric shapes by completing a variety of exercises. Students label the pictures with the 3D shape names, draw radius and diameter lines, name different types of triangles and draw diagonals and...

Tenth graders identify homogeneous tessellations. In this model-based lesson, 10th graders make and identify homogeneous tessellations, both regular and semi-regular.

In this mental math instructional activity, students use mental math to find the surface area and determine nets of the given shape. They use an information sheet as an aide to find the answer to 30 questions.

In these area, perimeter, and volume worksheets, learners calculate to find the area, perimeter, or volume of the various figures. Students complete 30 problems.

Students construct a pathfinder that could land an egg safely. In this physics lesson, students explain the factors affecting the dynamics of falling objects. They evaluate their pathfinder design.
