The magic number is six! Using a 6x table, young math stars practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing two-digit numbers with the number six. This worksheet also touches on making tessellations with hexagons. 

In this tessellations worksheet, students answer questions about the characteristics of tessellations.  They identify polygons that will and will not tessellate.  Students determine the sum of angles in a polygon...

In this tessellation instructional activity, middle schoolers create tessellations using stated figures.  They rotate and transform given figures.  This one-page instructional activity contains 5 problems.

In this tessellation worksheet, students draw tessellations using specified figures. This one page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.

In this tessellation worksheet, students explore tessellations and create a pattern without overlaps or spaces. After creating the tessellation, they color the shapes. This one-page worksheet contains dot paper for ease in creating a...

How much fabric is necessary for bunting? Scholars use given dimensions of triangular bunting (hanging decorations) to determine the amount of fabric necessary to decorate a rectangular garden. The task requires pupils to consider...

In this tessellations learning exercise, 10th graders solve 3 different word problems that include creating various tessellations. First, they group pentagons around a vertex so the angles add up to 360 and determine whether the...

In this tessellations instructional activity, learners identify shapes such as hexagons, octagons and other regular polygons and determine if the shapes will tessellate. They explore why some regular polygons tessellate while others do...

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 --...

In this tessellations worksheet, students solve 2 word problems where they use the "make a pattern strategy" to form tessellations from geometric shapes. There is scaffolding for the problem solving strategy.

In this creating tessellations worksheet, 10th graders solve 2 word problems that include creating various tessellations. First, they explore the various techniques used to form tessellations, including triangles, quadrilaterals,...

In this problem solving learning exercise, students make models to solve 5 word problems, showing their work. Houghton Mifflin text referenced.

This lesson plan combines a creative building activity with analyzing a butterfly photograph and using problem solving to complete the puzzle. It blends art and science very well. Students will learn and enjoy the process. The extension...

What a wonderful resource! Learners create two-dimensional shapes according to the instructions stated, use the squares to make a triangular prism, a cube, and a pyramid, and identify features of plane shapes, among a myriad of other...

Put an insect together piece by piece with a fun and artistic puzzle project. To increase small group collaboration, learners use photos of insects cut into one-inch squares to create an enlarged puzzle version of the image. Extension...

In this polygons and angles worksheet, 10th graders complete 5 different questions related to polygons and angles, in addition to symmetry and transformations. First, they define polygon and how they are named. Then, students define...

For this problem solving strategy worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer to help solve a problem. Students complete 4 sections: understand, plan, solve and look back. Houghton Mifflin text referenced.

In this square unit worksheet, students read the word problem about the pens Farmer Mathman wants to build for his animals. Students then use the table to guide them. Students draw their answers on grid paper and then answer the four...

For this points, lines, planes, and space worksheet, high schoolers solve word problems dealing with points, lines, planes, and space. Students complete 20 individual problems and 20 group problems.

Rotate this resource into your lesson plans. Scholars rotate polygons in the coordinate plane by multiples of 90 degrees. They then compare the original and new figures to develop conjectures about coordinate points after rotations.

In this geometry instructional activity, students look at a picture of downtown landmarks and identify different shapes, lines, and more. Students identify 18 items.
