Students work with three dimensional objects. For this geometry lesson, students examine models of spheres, cones, cubes, prisms, and pyramids, and identify them by their edges, vertices, and faces.

First graders find angles in their classroom. In this geometric figures lesson plan, 1st graders identify, describe and classify angles they see in their world. Students create pictures that contain angles and display them in the room.

Sixth graders explore characteristics of similar objects. Using attribute blocks, they explore the ratios of the perimeter, area and side length in similar shapes. They calculate and compare the area of shapes.

In this patterns worksheet, students analyze a series of geometric shapes and determine the pattern. Students use numbers or letters to represent each pattern.

Set your pupils up to start on geometry by teaching them some introductory terminology. Pupils learn the terms by reading a short passage and looking at examples. They then respond to five questions related to the text.

Get a line on the snakes. The assessment task requires the class to determine the species of unknown snakes based upon collected data. Individuals analyze two scatter plots and determine the most likely species for five...

High schoolers explore the concept of logarithms.  In this logarithms lesson plan, students graph logarithms on their Ti-Nspire calculator.  High schoolers describe the shapes of their graphs by identifying slope, y-intercepts,...

In this math worksheet, students sketch the finite area whose boundary is composed of pieces of the curves x =1− y 4 and x = y2 − 1.

In this math activity, students examine the graph of the derivative. Then they determine the critical points that correspond to the relative extrema.

In this math worksheet, students find the area of all the different types of geometric shapes from the memory. They write all the formulas and explain the meanings of the variables.

Let's paint the town equal parts yellow and violet, or simply brown. Pupils calculate the amount of blue and red paint needed to make six quarts of brown paint. Individuals then explain how they determined the percentage of the brown...

Many problems in life have more than one possible solution, and the same is true for advanced mathematics. Scholars solve seven problems that all have at least two solutions. Then three higher-level thinking questions challenge them to...

Students explore arithmetic and numerical patterns. After observing a teacher created function box, students describe a pattern and predict what will "come out" of the function box. They explore patterns such as geometric shapes,...

In this math worksheet, students match the drawings that are in pieces in order to create three dimensional geometric figures. They match the nets with the shapes.

In this street map learning exercise, students analyze a section of a street map of Washington D.C, finding parallel streets, listing streets that form given shapes, and following directions. Answers on page 2.

In this geometry worksheet, students identify the different shapes created by nets. They also identify the intersection of lines and planes. There are 5 questions with an answer key.

Graph A goes with equation C, but table B. The short assessment task requires class members to match graphs with their corresponding tables, equations, and verbalized rules. Pupils then provide explanations on the process they used to...

Fourth graders participate in a lesson that is about the finding of different fractional sizes with the help of pattern blocks. They define the vocabulary terms of numerator and denominator. The lesson also uses geometry and relates it...

Students investigate Pick's theorem by completing a lab. In this geometry lesson, students construct polygons using cabri software. They calculate the area of polygons and identify the vertices of each shape.

Students calculate the are of regular polygons. In this geometry lesson, students create polygons on the computer and move it around to create different shapes. They explore the area of different polygons and how they inter-relate.

Fifth graders work with polygons.

Sixth graders create slideshows of geometric terms. They use images taken with digital cameras or scanned from magazines.

Students research the history of the quilt in American History and view a PowerPoint Presentation. They create a quilt square with colored paper using polygons, transformations, rotations, and reflections on the computer and on a...
