Take a swing at the task. Using their knowledge of polygons and solids, scholars design one hole of a miniature golf course. They calculate areas and perimeters, determine the cost of building the holes, make scale drawings, and create...

Let the class' knowledge of geometry soar like the kites they create. After researching the history and science of kites, learners draw up a blueprint for their own kites. They then calculate the areas and perimeters based on the scale...

Loaded with concepts ranging from multiplying decimals to converting units to solving problems using the order of operations, a thorough practice packet is perfect for a fifth or sixth grade math classroom.

Next time you need to repave your patio, have your scholars do all the math. They first calculate and answer questions using the area of patio blocks. Next, they determine the cheapest block to use to pave the patio.

Investigate polygons from rectangles to triangles to octagons. Each level of the five-problem series targets a different grade level. Beginning with the level A problem, learners examine the relationship between area and perimeter by...

Rescue animals in the zoo by applying math concepts. Groups of learners solve three missions involving oxygen, food, and climate control. Each group selects an animal from one of four bio-domes.

Elevate your fifth graders' understanding of math concepts with a series of vocabulary posters. Featuring terms concerning probability and statistics, measurement, algebra, and decimal place value (and many more), the posters are...

Cook up a nice new kitchen. Future designers apply quadrilaterals to design a new kitchen floor. They create a tessellation and determine the area of the pattern. As an added component and real-world application, they must stick to a...

Let there be plenty of light. For a perimeter of 10 feet, scholars determine the maximum area of a window composed of a rectangle and a semicircle. They draw diagrams and then write and solve equations to find the height and radius for...

Scale up your lessons on geometry and ask learners to investigate conditions on triangles, scale drawings, the area and circumference of circles, and angle relationships. The resource includes activities and a homework assignment.

Check for understanding with a set of math assessments. Fifth graders answer questions involving multiplication and division, median and mode, rotational symmetry, and graphing.

Tenth graders define the formula for cylinders and use it to solve real world problems. In this geometry lesson, pupils differentiate between area, perimeters, 2D shapes, 3D shapes, and volume of prisms, cylinders and spheres. They...

Students create a mini city using proportions that fit a model human they construct using tin foil. They plan the city including a library, sports arena, living spaces, parks and businesses. When constructing the paper buildings, they...

Third graders create polygons with perimeters of 30 centimeters, use the centimeter grid paper to determine the area of each shape, and organize the shapes to make generalizations from the patterns they see.

Third graders use pattern blocks of one shape at a time to try to create a similar shape. They compare the perimeter of the new figure with the perimeter of the original shape and look for a pattern. Students use the pattern to predict...

Second graders utilize manipulatives (pentominoes) to demonstrate knowledge of: lines of symmetry, slides, reflections (flips), rotations (turns), area, and perimeter. This activity gives students a meaningful way to practice these...

In this right triangles activity, 10th graders solve and complete 5 various types of problems. First, they solve each of the triangles shown and find the area of each triangle. Then, students find the perimeter and area of the regular...

In this geometry worksheet, students are given the side lengths of polygons and asked to calculate the perimeter, area and shaded region. There are 30 questions with an answer key.

In this online math worksheet, students determine the length and width of given rectangles given their area. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A...
