Students find the area of polygons.  In this area of polygons lesson, students find the area of parallelograms, rectangles, squares, and other polygons.  They identify each given figure and determine the appropriate formula...

In this geometry learning exercise, learners analyze different polygons and relate it to a circuit board. They find the odd degree Euler circuit and identify the vertices of the odd degree. There are 3 questions with an answer key.

Fifth graders complete activities to investigate parallel and perpendicular lines. In this plane geometry lesson, 5th graders watch a movie about parallel and perpendicular lines. Students work in pairs to describe and draw the lines in...

Sixth graders explore different polygons. In this polygon instructional activity, 6th graders examine a rhombus, quadrilateral, parallelogram, and rectangles. Students compare and contrast polygons and research shapes on the Internet.

Students investigate measurement through the use of literature through this series of lessons.

In this geometry worksheet, students identify the different shapes created by nets. They also identify the intersection of lines and planes. There are 5 questions with an answer key.

In this math worksheet, students build a truncated dodecahedron. This is a solid shape with 12 regular decagonal faces and 20 equilateral triangular faces. Students build this shape to assist in developing their cognitive and geometric...

In this dodecahedron worksheet, students build a model of a dodecahedron. The pattern for this shape is made up of twelve pentagons. This is a worksheet generator, and the teacher can choose if a sample of the completed shape will be...

Fifth graders participate in a review game of geometry topics. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders use the "Eggspert" interactive classroom game system to review the geometry skills taught that week. Students work in teams to complete...

In this math worksheet, students use a paper model to build a truncated icosidodecahedron. The worksheet includes a model that is to be cut out and put together by the student. There is an option to include a small preview of the...

In this math worksheet, students build a model of a truncated icosahedron. This shape has 12 regular pentagonal faces and 20 regular hexagonal faces. An option to include a preview of the finished model is included for the teacher.

Learners identify symmetry in road signs. For this geometry lesson, students explore objects in the real world for symmetry. They perform translation, rotation and reflection.

Upper elementary and middle schoolers explore the properties of various polygons. They use video, resource links, and engage in hands-on activities in order to construct geometric nets. This fine plan should lead to increased...

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

Students identify diagrams of quadrilaterals and circles by different names and classify the figures. They name the areas for each diagram and practice solving the formulas for each.

Elementary math classes calculate the area of a shape and explain the correlation between the size of the perimeter and the areas that can be contained within that perimeter. They also explain the effect the shape of the perimeter has on...

Students engage in a lesson that is about the concept of polygons and focuses upon finding the area. They use formulas provided in the lesson in order to solve problems given by the teacher for independent practice. Geometric figures are...

Eighth graders plot points and investigate polygons. They locate a point, using ordered pairs of integers on the coordinate plane. Students compare geometric measurements and computations on coordinate axes as they are applied to...

Upper graders measure the area and perimeter of several items. In this area and perimeter lesson, learners engage in measuring area and perimeter in several scenarios. Full-group instruction requires students to listen to instruction and...

This geometry idea is simple enough, but you'll need to note the typos in the directions. Learners match quarters and halves on the right to their whole shapes on the left. The shapes on the left are divided to make this concept easier...

Add a sense of excitement to your math class with this race across the country. Using their knowledge of all things circular, young mathematicians work in pairs answering a series of pi-related word problems as they hop from one city to...

How do you know you know? Prove it! The guide goes through several examples and includes a link to a video to teach learners how to work through coordinate proofs. The goal is to prove that different shapes are indeed that shape. 

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

Students identify polygons. In this geometric shapes lesson, students identify and describe polygons. Students create new shapes out of the shapes they are given.
