For this geometry worksheet, 3rd graders complete 5 exercises with line segments. They name segment that are shown in figure, compare the lengths of segments, name intersections, and tell alternate ways of naming segments.

Pupils investigate how to measure the speed of wind. They do this by building their own anemometers. Students calculate the air speeds while using their own projects and make observations. They conduct a mathematical discussion after the...

In this measuring angles worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 8 various types of problems. First, they use a protractor to find the measure of each angle shown. Then, students find the missing angle measures. They also refer to the...

Third graders describe and compare attributes of two-dimensional shapes. They explain geometric terms, angles and shapes. Students demonstrate each vocabulary word with their body and they mirror the body positions associated with each...

Pupils use Venn diagrams to represent classifications of shapes and to use counting arguments to find the number of objects in a given set.

Fourth graders explore the definition and properties of parallel lines. This high level lesson has students calculate the slope of the two parallel lines, and draw the lines on a Caretsian coordinate system.

Pupils 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.

Students examine how archaeologists preserve context of sites through use of rectangular grid or Cartesian coordinate system, and develop sense of distance by pacing off and estimating distances.

Ninth graders design a safe passage through a 2-D obstacle. In this geometric math lesson, 9th graders engage in a hands on activity to better understand the concept of geometric and algebraic perpendicularity. Students will work in...

In this polygons worksheet, 4th graders identify and name the 4 polygons drawn on the bottom of the worksheet and then draw a triangle, hexagon and a quadrilateral.

In this angle relationships worksheet, 10th graders solve 7 problems related to the different types of angles that occur in pairs. First, they identify each pair of angles as adjacent, vertical, complementary, supplementary, and/or as a...

Students examine the intersection between an individual's right to privacy versus the public's right to know, through the lens of the relationship between public figure Gary Condit and missing intern Chandra Levy.

Fourth graders discover how to apply the Cartesian coordinate system by figuring out the length and width of their school playground. They determine that pacing is an important tool for the initial mapping of a site. Students conduct a...

Students solve problems involving triangles. In this geometry lesson, students apply properties of triangles to find the missing angles and sides. They identify angles of parallel lines cut by a transversal.
