Tenth graders have been introduced to the concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation, and have practiced translating, reflecting, and rotating two-dimensional objects on the coordinate plane.

Students calculate the area of a parallelogram. In this geometry activity, students perform translation using a coordinate plane and coordinate pairs. They perform translation on other polygons.

Students draw on graph paper. In this geometry lesson, students review types of triangles and quadrilaterals. Students investigate geometric transformations, including translation, rotation and reflection. Students practice each...

Sixth grade students: design a stained glass window, submitting their initial plan detailing the measurements of all lines and angles. Seventh grade students: create a scale drawing of their own geometric family of four members.

Twelfth graders build a model of the following figures with the base from column I and the cross-section from column II. Draw the base with labeled axes on the graph paper and construct the figure on top of the base with the play dough...

Students complete worksheets involving rotational symmetry. In this geometry lesson plan, students complete worksheets to identify rotational symmetry and rotations. They compare and contrast rotated figures. Students examine the...

Students create reflections over two lines. In this reflections worksheet, students compare and contrast reflections over parallel and intersecting lines. They dilate figures and investigate the effect of the dilation using measurement...

For this interpretation of vectors and linear systems worksheet, students describe the geometric appearance of two vectors. They add the two vectors and sketch the sum as well as the vectors to determine the commutativity of vector...

Students investigate motion using a CBL. For this algebra lesson, students collect and graph data on a coordinate plane. They define and identify amplitude and period of conic graphs.

Fourth graders find the volume of solids. In groups, 4th graders use spinners to determine the dimensions of solids. They construct the shapes, creating a model of the figure Students count the cubes in the model to determine the...

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.

Students explore Fractal designs. In this geometry lesson, students observe the different polygons created in nature and relate it to math. They define polygons on planes and rotate polygons about a point.

Young scholars investigate transformation on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, students identify pairs of coordinates and their location on the grid. They perform rotation and reflection of each polygon.

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

Students problem solve to open a cube to create different shapes. In this problem solving lesson plan, students are given a cube and the shapes to open it up to, and they have to cut the cube open to make certain shapes. This gives them...

Learners explore polygons and their uses in careers. They also discover polygons shapes in manmade objects and nature. They use their acquired knowledge to construct a strong structure using polygon shapes.

Students view a right triangle displayed by the teacher. Students measure legs and the interior angles of the triangle. They look for a pattern or relationship between the legs and angles. Students use pegboards and string to create more...

Fifth graders explore the three types of angles. In this math instructional activity, 5th graders estimate the measure of angles and draw the angles using a protractor.

Second graders use a checklist to construct a Geo-Town map including a compass rose, a map key, and a paragraph about a walk around Geo-Town, using appropriate geometric and directional vocabulary to identify the two-dimensional figures...

Fourth graders identify and describe lines, shapes, and solids using formal geometric language. They use Inspiration to create a graphic organizer and outline of polygons.

Third graders become more familiar with various geometric shapes by completing the games and activities in this lesson. They keep track of the number of each shape they use in each of the three ways.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the answer to a vocabulary questions and then follow the give rules to place the answer in the appropriate place on the crossword grid.   The one page worksheet contains 18...

Students work together to make figures out of tangram squares. In groups, they calculate the measurements they need and apply the Pythagorean Theorem. They complete a worksheet solving equations using the theorem and review their answers.

Students explore the concept of fractal patterns. In this fractal pattern lesson, students use an applet about the Hilbert Curve to answer questions about rectangles and other polygons. Students derive the fractal pattern when dividing...
