Students explore the concept of fractals. In this fractal lesson, students use applets to explore Koch's Snowflake, Sierpinski's Triangle, and other fractals. Students develop these concepts through exploration and teacher guided...

Fifth graders create a reflection of a poygon using a Mira. They discover that a line connecting a vertiex of a polygon and the corresponding vertex of its reflection is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Students create a glide...

Fifth graders reorganize comic strips to have them make sense, complete outline and organize their thoughts into outline form to explain directions, and use that outline to complete their own directions for geometry activities.

Second graders practice new geometry vocabulary by putting the words to the tune of "Hokey Pokey." students use the lyrics as a guided reading experience.

Students search the school grounds for examples of symmetry in nature. They bring examples back to the classroom and write about them.

Students review definitions of word wall words using songs, movement and sharing.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

This lesson plan deals with tessellations and their geometric concepts. Upper elementary and middle school students will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and culture.

Definition of congruent. Choose the "here's more" link to see examples of a rotation, reflection and translation.

At the Food Market there are a lot of shapes. Help Afia find and name the shapes.

The Chinese character mark for Tan II (pronounced she-tow-bah) is the second of two lessons to introduce first grade students to geometry using tangrams. This lesson incorporates history, math, and language arts. In this lesson students...
