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 using shapes in equations worksheet, 4th graders solve 15 simple multiplication and division equations by finding the value of each geometric shape.

For this area worksheet, students calculate the area of figures and determine the length of x. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this area and perimeter worksheet, students compare area and perimeter of pairs of figures, determining which has either the greatest area or perimeter. A reference web site is given for additional activities. 

For this perimeter worksheet, students calculate the perimeter and find given values of 6 figures. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this angles worksheet, students measure angles with a protractor and figure out if it is acute, right, obtuse, or straight. Students complete 6 problems.

In this math worksheet, students investigate repeated values on the calculator. They also read the explanation of the golden triangle and its proof.

Students explore Fractal designs. In this geometry instructional activity, students observe the different polygons created in nature and relate it to math. They define polygons on planes and rotate polygons about a point.

Learners reconstruct an ancient Greek sculpture using various geometric forms and explore different geometric forms. They create an abstract human form out of geometric shapes and create other representations out of the same shapes.

In this math and logic worksheet, students solve 2 problems in which they examine a picture of 5 squares in a particular formation. Students build this with toothpicks. Students are instructed to move a specified number of toothpicks to...

In this math worksheet, students investigate a solid mass that is suspended. Then they find the integral to help define its placement in space.

Students problem solve to open a cube to create different shapes. In this problem solving lesson plan, students are given a cube and the shapes to open it up to, and they have to cut the cube open to make certain shapes. This gives them...

Students explore polygons and their uses in careers. They also discover polygons shapes in manmade objects and nature. They use their acquired knowledge to construct a strong structure using polygon shapes.

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry instructional activity, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

Fifth graders examine patterns and relate to equations to solve math problems.  In this patterns lesson plan, 5th graders diagram, graph, use models and use tables to solve equations for real world problems.

Students discover the characteristics of polyhedra. Through hands-on activities and interactive videos, students investigate and retrieve information on polyhedra and crystal structures. Students study angles and symmetry. They...

Students examine transformations. In this math lesson, students view and describe flips, slides, and turns. Students practice making transformations with shapes.

Young scholars investigate the concepts of geometry that can be grouped into a flip book that can be used for teaching and review purposes. They define the differences between two and three dimensional figures. Also polygons are reviewed...

Third graders demonstrate their mathematical knowledge of symmetry and reflection using congruent geometric shapes while working as an artist and mathematician looking at a medieval-styled stained glass window.

Tenth graders investigate geometric construction.  In this geometry lesson, 10th graders explore the procedure for copying an angle and a segment.  The lesson emphasizes the difference between a sketch, a drawing, and a...

In this volume worksheet, students solve twenty volume of various solids problems.  The solids examined include: cylinders, cubes, rectangular prism, including how the volumes of these figures change with increased in length. ...

Students investigate symmetry in the real world. In this geometry instructional activity, students inter-relate math and technology. They create and name a variety of polygons.

Students use fractals to analyze nature. In this geometry lesson, students work in groups using technology and math to communicate. They identify where in the real world fractal can be seen.

Students investigate how to draw and classify two and three dimensional figures (squares, triangles, rectangles.)
