Middle and high schoolers investigate all the different places in math that square root is present. In this geometry lesson, pupils discuss square roots as it relates to a right triangle and construction. They go over altitude, rise,...

Seventh graders identify a polygon and classify them using congruent sides and number of edges and vertices. Students transform two dimensional objects into three dimensional objects.

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 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 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 explore lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, students divide and combine shapes along basic lines of symmetry. Students explore symmetry in real life objects.

Second graders identify different polygons and their attributes. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders get to know polygons by studying the vocabulary and finding polygons in their classroom. They create these shapes and then find their...

Students graph polygons using the name and number of sides. In this geometry lesson, students identify the formula to calculate the area and perimeter of polygons. They relate the formula to different polygons and shapes.

Students identify and classify solid geometric figures. In this geometry lesson, students bring in objects that look like solid shapes and identify their attributes. Students identify the number of surfaces and faces on each figure.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve problems that are based on the theorems associated with perpendicular and angle bisectors of a triangle.  An application on the coordinate plane is included.  The one page...

n this geometric lesson, students define and identify two dimensional shapes based on their attributes. They complete worksheets based on the geometric concepts.

Students make three dimensional shapes with nets. In this nets instructional activity, students receive nets which they fold to make a three dimensional object. They predict what shape each net will make and verify it after making the...

Students investigate properties of circles. For this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similarity and congruence as they observe polygons. They investigate properties of two and three dimensional shape.

Several practice exercises suitable for any geometry class working on transformation, symmetry, and tessellation -- especially visual representations of image translation, rotation, and reflection, symmetry, tessellations and tangrams --...

Eighth graders explain the relationship between the position of the sun, a city's latitude and shadow length. Ratio's, geometry, and algebra are used to determine the shadow lengths and building heights. A sun angle (altitude) charts to...

Kindergarteners explore various representations and uses of numbers to develop number sense. They participate in an activity and arrange patterns into groups. Students compare the sets and describe the objects in each set.

Third graders evaluate the attributes of cones. In this space shapes lesson, 3rd graders analyze three-dimensional shapes. Students explore the faces and edges of a cone.

Students investigate basic geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson, students explore solids through measuring and modeling. This assignment models the importance of understanding concrete objects in geometry.      

Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.

Students discuss reasons to record the location of stars. They view a picture of the night sky, and discuss constellations. Students complete a worksheet of the various shapes they see in the constellations.

Students build a castle to Ravi's design using the cubes. Students then make an original model of a solid object from diagrams which show views from the top, front, side and back. Students describe the reflection of rotational symmetry...

Students find two dimensional shapes in three dimensional figures. They determine the shapes that make up the faces of three dimensional figures of common classroom objects such as crayon boxes.

Ninth graders investigate and describe ways that human understanding of Earth and space has depended on technological development. They describe and interpret the science of optical and radio telescopes, space probes and remote sensing...

Learners use materials to build, investigate, and draw two-dimensional shapes (polygons). They combine the shapes they have built and draw from the pile to begin a round-robin activity to name and determine the attributes of a selection...
