Students investigate the ties that architecture and math have in common. They focus on works of architecture in the world that is considered of great significance. Students use the internet to find building images from around the world....

Students create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.

Learners investigate angles of polygons. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the relationship between angles and the number of sides in a polygon. They differentiate between sumilarity anf congruence in angles and...

Students calculate the lines of symmetry using polygons. In this geometry activity, students graph, compare and estimate using collected data. They identify different attributes to the polygons based on their sides.

Students investigate special segments in triangles. In this geometry lesson, students graph, compare, estimate and predict findings based on their data. They differentiate between similarity and congruence of triangles.

Students create and color a one-patch quilt design based upon a regular hexagon. They examine quilts and photos of quilt designs, read a handout, and complete their quilt design on a worksheet.

Students differentiate between ellipse and hyperbola. In this algebra lesson, students graph and solve elliptical equations. They use the cabri program to create the different conics and move them around.

Students classify prisms according to their attributes. In this classifying prisms lesson, students explore different prisms. Students generate observations of the attributes and classify the prism correctly.

Students study pyramids. In this prisms lesson plan, students explore the attributes of pyramids. Students will explore the lateral surface area of pyramids and be able to distinguish pyramids from other space shapes.

Learners demonstrate an understanding of the text by applying it to the calculations involving the area of a wing. They use an online textbook to help them calculate the area of the surface of wing planforms.

Fifth graders, after seeing Honeycomb examples, complete a Classifying Angles worksheet, Clock worksheet, and Defining Angles worksheet.

In this volume worksheet, students find the volume of 8 prisms.   Students are given the length, width, and height of each prism.

In this geometry worksheet, students calculate the areas of rectangles. They use the formula for area of a rectangle.

Sixth graders identify various angles by using pattern blocks. For this measurement lesson, 6th graders find out how many degrees are in each of the different angles of the various pattern blocks.

Third graders identify healthy foods in each group of the food pyramid. In this nutrition lesson, 3rd graders take notes on the food pyramid by visiting the website, www.mypyramid.gov. Students design a healthy menu for an imaginary bistro.

Young scholars investigate circles and compound locus. In this geometry lesson, students identify the distance from a point to a line. They use Cabri software to create lines and circles.

Students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. In this geometry lesson, students make conjectures and apply it to solve real life situations. They collect data and make predictions based on the data.

Students stud angles, and then play the "What's Your Angle?" game. They complete at least 10 computer generated problems from the Angles Applet.

Students use Geometers SketchPad to find the area and perimeter of several shapes. For this geometry lesson, students determine area of rectangles and progress through irregular polygons. None of the referenced worksheets are included...

Fourth graders read Mary's problem and make sure that they examine it. After some discussion, let the class work on the problem in their groups. They then take turns in putting a picture of their arrangement on the board.

Students investigate the supposed traveling path of a meteorite. They use sound in order to triangulate the path. The results of the experiment are written on a map to display the path of the meteorite. The culminating activity is when...

Third graders use fractions to describe part of a set. In this fractions lesson, 3rd graders are introduced to fractions through a book and use pattern blocks to describe a fraction as a part of a set. This lesson includes a scripted...

Students view examples of man-made structures and create a building that matches the style. Using the internet, they research the style of Frank Lloyd Wright and create plans for creating their own community. They use a painting of...

High schoolers practice identifying right, vertical, and adjacent angles using a Smartboard. They then determine measurements of all of the angles when only one measurement is given.
