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...

Young scholars learn how to identify cell addresses, format cell contents, add pop-up comments to a cell, and also apply conditional formatting. They use clues and words to make a geometry crossword puzzle pertaining to geometrical shapes.

While the lesson focuses on right triangles, this activity offers a great way to practice the area of all triangles through an interactive webpage. The activity begins with the class taking a square paper and cutting in in half; can they...

Watch the damage from a forest fire in this interactive simulation activity that challenges learners to estimate the burn area using different approaches. Learners are given a worksheet to track the different burn patterns and practice...

Hands-on investigation of Riemann sums becomes possible without intensive arithmetic gymnastics with this interactive lesson plan. Learners manipulate online graphing tools to develop and test theories about right, left, and...

Ready to introduce your class to the coordinate plane? This website includes a detailed lesson plan that includes two interactive games to help learners practice graphing ordered pairs. The scripted discussion is a little cheesy and a...

Students participate in a series of hand-on, online, and multimedia activities to examine 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes. They describe common geometric solids. They construct rectangular prisms using straws and ribbon.

Students explore the relationship between how big a side of a triangle is and how big its opposite angle is by creating triangles using an interactive website.

First graders participate in hands-on activities and use objects to create patterns. They observe a PowerPoint lesson describing matching objects and patterns. In groups, 1st graders complete geometry computer activities such as planting...

Young scholars investigate spheres through sketches. For this geometry lesson, students sketch two and three dimensional shapes creating nets. They find and differentiate between the nets for prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders and spheres.

Students have fun with math. In this math skills lesson, students collaborate to solve the problems presented in this interactive lesson. The problems pertain to geometry, measurement, probability, number sense, and algebra.

Third graders utilize different types of computer programs, such as Microsoft paint and Microsoft Word to study and create different types of polygons. They use PowerPoint to create a story about a shape and others that it meets during a...

Students tour their school in a scavenger hunt to find primary colors and two and three-dimensional shapes. Students take digital pictures of the colors and shapes they find and create a class book of the pictures.

Students practice adding polynomials using algebra tiles. Students view a PowerPoint presentation in which they are introduced to the concept of modeling polynomials using a scaled down version of algebra tiles. Students walk through...

Students calculate the height of a tree or flagpole. They measure the shadow of the tree or flagpole and the length of a shadow of a meterstick. Using similar triangles, calculate the heigh. Devise two additional ways in which to measure...

During this activity, learners will create nets for prisms. They will find the volume and surface area of the shapes. They will also use interactive activities to review three-dimensional shapes.This lesson plan was created as a result...
