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.

Students explore how geometry is used on the composition of artworks by artists from different cultures. This lesson is equally suited for a Math or Art classroom at the late-elementary or early-middle school level.

Students define reflection, rotation and symmetry. In this symmetry lesson plan, students move the graph around the coordinate plane and identify the line of symmetry. They identify the different designs of a kaleidoscope.

Students utilize triangulation techniques to determine altitudes of objects. An altitude locator is constructed and used to determine the height of a building or a tree. Tangent tables and formulas provide the ratio for the formula to...

Fifth graders use pattern blocks and triagular grid paper to reivew shape names, be introduced to the concept of a tiling of the plane, and determine which pattern blocks tile the plane. They are asked if they comprehend what a...

Students solve problems using the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson, students identify the sides and angles of a right triangle. They find the different trigonometric ratios and solve using sine, cosine and tangent.

Using a twelve foot knotted rope, students form a 3-4-5 right triangle. Following a discussion of observations about the lengths of the sides of the triangle, students use grid paper, scissors and a centimeter ruler to draw and measure...

Students investigate the concept of two dimensional polygons. They complete a vocabulary chart with the teacher or in independently. Students are shown various polygons in order to classify them and then asked to draw one of them from...

Students follow directions to make two- and three-dimensional shapes. Focusing on polygons, they use the shapes to solve real-world problems and review with the class. They read two of Shel Silverstein's poems and discuss the...

Twelfth graders apply the formula for finding the area of a triangle to various problems. They work real life problems for finding the area of a bathroom and the cost of tiling it. They play a game, Triangle Bingo, where they match...

Students find math concepts in every day items. In this math concept lesson, students take ten photographs of things they find interesting. They analyze the photographs to find hidden math concepts such as counting, lines, angles,...

Your mathematicians will examine several conjectures regarding even and odd functions and investigate a formal proof of the conjectures using CAS. 

Fifth graders use tan to solve problems involving right-angled triangles. They solve equations of the form tan(8) =a, for a between 180 degrees and 360 degrees. They state the value of tan (8) in special cases.
