Curated OER
Investigating Nets and Polyhedra
Fifth graders create a net for a given polyhedron. They determine the corresponding polyhedron for a given net. Students investigate several polyhedra (cube, tetrahedron, and one of their choosing) and their corresponding nets. They...
Curated OER
Cones, Cylinders, Spheres
Pupils classify polygons by name and shape. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the lateral surface of each conic. They differentiate between cones, cylinders and spheres.
Curated OER
More Prisms/Nets
Learners calculate the volume and surface are of three-dimensional shapes. In this geometry lesson, students use the nets to prove their calculations of shapes. They identify the different parts of a solid using the nets.
Curated OER
Finding the Area of a Parallelogram with Translations
Students calculate the area of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of parallelograms and use to to solve problems. They create polygons using Cabri software.
Curated OER
Marshmellow Geometry
Students explore a variety of geometric shapes, name them, and list their characteristics. The shapes are transposed into structures and checked for accuracy.
Curated OER
Plane and Solid Figures
Students define a plane and a solid shape. In this geometry lesson, students compare and contrast different geometric shapes as they relate to solids. They name the geometric solids based on their sides and edges.
Curated OER
Strongest Polygon
Students define and identify shapes by name. In this geometry lesson, students construct, identify and compare polygons based on the number of sides. They classify each shape based on their angle sum theorem.
Curated OER
World Projections
Young scholars identify map projections and examine polar maps. In this map skills lesson, students use a flat world map to identify various projections and calculate the distances between locations by using a map scale.
Curated OER
Faces, Vertices, Edges
Learners identify the parts of three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson, students find the number of faces, edges and vertices. They differentiate between prisms and polyhedra.
Curated OER
Angles Lesson Plan
Students explore the relationship of angles as it relates to 2 and 3-D shapes. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between acute, obtuse, right, alternate interior, exterior and adjacent angles. They manipulate a math...
Curated OER
Sequential Still Life
Sixth graders identify and use the concepts of shading, outline, and watercolor wash. They design a unique sequential still life painting with pencils and watercolors.
Curated OER
Triangle Side Lengths and Angles Measures
Students identify missing sides and angles. In this geometry lesson, students use triangular theorems to identify the missing sides. They use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the different ratios of each side.
Curated OER
Median of a Trapezoid
Students find the median of trapezoids and other polygons. For this geometry lesson, students identify important properties of trapezoids. They create trapezoids and polygons using Cabri software.
Curated OER
Investigating the Pythagorean Triples
Young scholars investigate the Pythagorean triples. In this geometry lesson, students solve for different parts of a right triangle. They identify the missing side or angle using the pythagorean theorem.
Curated OER
Exploring Geometric Mean
Student identify the solution using geometric mean. In this geometry lesson, students create right triangles where the altitude of the triangle is the side containing the right angle. They modify shapes using Cabri software and observe...
Curated OER
Conjectures For Intersecting Circles
Students identify properties of circles. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the center of two intersecting circles.They use Cabri software to create circles and move it around to make observation.
Curated OER
Secant and Secant Segments
Students use the secant and secant segment theorem to solve problems. In this calculus lesson, students identify where the secant line crosses on a circle. They create circles and secants using cabri software.
Curated OER
Inscribed Angles
Learners calculate the inscribed angle of a triangle. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the angle created by intersection of a triangle and a circle. They see the relationship between the arc and the angle.
Curated OER
Baked Polymer Clay 3D People Portraits
Young scholars discuss methods of building forms with clay (ball and variations, snake, flat sheets). They draw a stick figure of what their sculpture may look like, including correct figure proportion.
Curated OER
Math, Music and Architecture: Kindergarten Geometry and Aesthetics in Music and Architecture
Students identify and name different geometrical shapes. In this math lesson, students distinguish odd from even numbers. They describe the properties of 2 and 3 dimensional objects.
Curated OER
Team Puzzles
Fourth graders work in co-operative teams of four to complete a puzzle. Each student initially works independently, and then the team jointly puts together the four shapes they have individually made, to complete the puzzle.
Curated OER
Geometry in Tessellations
Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.
Curated OER
Parallel-o-Home
Young scholars investigate the usage of parallel and perpendicular shapes in the real world. In this geometry lesson, students investigate shapes for properties that are related to the real world. They relate all the properties of shape...
