Students are introduced to the basics of Geometry. Using cutout shapes, they identify whether they are polygons by using the properties of polygons. They practice drawing shapes they are going to be using on an everyday basis and...

In this identifying trees activity, students learn to identify 8 winter trees by their shapes. Students cut out flashcards with the name of the tree and its shape in silhouette.

In this Riemann sums activity, students use accumulation to find the estimate for the area of a given shape. Students use Riemann sums to estimate the area under the curves and error stacks to bound the error of their approximation. They...

Young scholars solve word problems by using basic geometry. For this geometry lesson, students use geometric formulas to find the perimeter, area, and volume of objects. Young scholars complete a worksheet.

In this Care Homework worksheet, students solve a variety of multiple digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems that include fractions, decimals, and percentages. They demonstrate knowledge of geometric formulas...

Students explore the mathematical properties of traditional American Indian lodges. They examine the effect of increasing sides of a polygon, calculate the surface area of prisms and cylinders, and construct a classroom size pyramid...

For this Pythagorean Theorem worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 19 various types of problems. First, they draw the square shown and divide its sections as shown. Then, students cut out the 6 parts of the square and rearrange the...

Students define vocabulary related to geometry and calculate the volume. In this geometry lesson plan, students calculate flow rates, and volume as it relates to a water plant facility. They calculate the volume of three dimensional...

In this power-law functions learning exercise, students solve 3 problems using data from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Experiment in the constellation Carina. Students use a photograph to determine the number of stars as bright as the...

Learners identify triangles as similar or congruent. In this geometry lesson, students drag triangles around on the navigator to see the effect of different angles on the shape of the triangle. They discuss angle similarity and angle...

Students assemble found natural objects into an artistic arrangement. They photograph their arrangement and Photoshop to enhance their artwork.

In this artifact classification instructional activity, students are given a list of key terms and two activity sheets about classifying artifacts of the Pee Dee culture. Students analyze artifacts and group them to answer questions on...

Young scholars explore the concept of multiplying polynomials. In this multiplying polynomials lesson, students watch a video clip about basic math skills. Young scholars work in groups on an exploration about why a binomial squared...

A page right out of the Holt Geometry book. Use a graphing calculator and graph paper to explore transformations with matrices.  

Learners practice the alphabet. In this ABC lesson, students read Chicka Chicka Boom Boom and identify the letters of the alphabet in the story. Learners then make ABC prints using sponges.

In this determinant worksheet, learners explore determinants, area and volume. This two-page worksheet contains explanations and examples. It provides two problems for students to solve.

Students experience life as an interior designer. In this math lesson plan, students calculate area and perimeter in inches as they use problem solving skills to design a room.

Students engage in a study of the Pythagorean Theorem to classify the hypotenuse of a triangle. The teacher uses examples from the lesson to aid students in comprehension of solving problems that involve problem solving. They create a...

Sixth graders use number cubes to explore volume of two-dimensional shapes. They roll a die and construct a shape using the numbers rolled as measurements of the sides. They estimate the volume of a given object, and then use the...

Students investigate faults. In this science instructional activity, students explore the many stresses and strains in the earth's layers and research the types of faults in their state.

Sixth graders are introduced to the concepts of area and volume. In groups, they work together to build models of square centimeters in which they are given no instructions. To end the activity, they record the dimensions of each model...

Second graders engage in a lesson that is about the discovery of solids. They identify using shapes like cones, spheres, cylinders, and cubes in various different situations. Students explore the classroom in order to find examples of...

Pupils practice a variety of strategies with varying numbers of tiles to form shapes and then find the minimum and maximum perimeter for each one. Each group is assigned a different area to build either with square tiles or a geoboard....
