Eighth graders investigate the Pythagorean Theorem and practice applying the theorem to various triangles. Finally, in the next lesson in the sequence, 8th graders create a song or a story to help them remember the Pythagorean Theorem.

Students sort Lego Duplo pieces after determining the attributes to classify them by. They work in pairs to sort a group of Duplo pieces and explain their process to others.

Fifth graders use the Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers to compare temperature readings. They use the Internet to find the temperatures of selected cities. After data is collected for five days, 5th graders graph the temperatures.

Students explore the concept of big and small. They collect objects from the classroom, sort them by size, and create a graph using Duplo stacking blocks.

Students explore the making of circles and concepts related to them in geometry. The project is inquiry based will focus upon students making their own nametags. The construction is ideal for hands on students.

Middle schoolers estimate and accurately measure the size of angles communicate with the appropriate geometric terms and symbols to describe and name angles, lines, line segments, rays

Third graders use a number of problem solving strategies in this unit of lessons. They determine how to draw and model three-dimensional objects, use co-ordinate systems, determine probability of events, and identify paths of simple...

There are many different ways to show a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem.  Here is a nice hands-on paper cutting activity that shows a graphic representation. You can even challenge your young Pythagoreans to come up with their own...

Pupils calculate the measurement of supplementary angles when one angle is known. The one-page assignment has six simple problems. It contains links to related resources as well as the answer key. Be aware that although the publisher...

In the second of two similar worksheets, anglers compute missing angles when given an alternate, supplementary, or complementary value. There are six problems to solve, but each of them requires two to four solutions. This is a nice...

In the first of two similar worksheets, geometers compute two to four unknown angles when given an alternate, supplementary, or complementary value. There are six multliple-step problems to solve. This is a nice challenge for your...

Students create a spreadsheet that calculate the amount of concrete needed to pour various concrete forms.

Students examine the concept of perimeter. Students calculate the perimeter of a random shape on a grid. Students develop a better understanding of the concept of perimeter. Students calculate the perimeter of shapes.

Learners explore different types of quadrilaterals. Students define the terminology used with quadrilaterals. They create particular quadrilaterals based on specific characteristics of the quadrilaterals using an online tool.

Learners participate in guessing their partners' hidden Lego pieces from their verbal clues. They work in partners to accomplish their goals. They are meeting a variety of math standards by completing this lesson.

In this math vocabulary worksheet, students complete multiple choice problems where they match the correct math vocabulary word to its definition. Students complete 15 questions.

Fourth graders build an explorer vehicle which they program through an obstacle course to enter the tomb or temple to discover artifacts.

Students listen to a story "My Crazy Dream" with an intent to identify shapes in ordinary objects. They raise their hands when they've heard an object whose shape they can identify. They discuss their findings.
