Eighth graders engage in a lesson that is about classifying polygons with the focus being upon specific triangles and quadrilaterals. They conduct activities using cutouts for kinesthetic learners to help make connections while...

Second graders find missing addends by solving math word problems. In this missing addend lesson, 2nd graders work in a whole group setting to find the missing addends in word problems before using the strategies to work independently....

Third graders discover geometric shapes by completing a series of games and activities. Using ropes with knots tied every foot, they make shapes such as squares, triangles, and hexagons. In pairs, 3rd graders use pattern blocks to...

Students create geometric shapes with a jump rope. In this interdisciplinary lesson, students review the different shapes while getting some physical activity.

Fifth graders, using graphic and word processing software, create geometric patterns by performing elementary transformations.

Geometers explore mathematics by completing an object measurement worksheet. They utilize a variety of candy bars and rulers to conduct a measurement experiment in class. They complete worksheets as a group based on the measurement...

Over and up, it's really that easy. A short video describes how to locate points and how to identify the coordinates of points on a two-dimensional coordinate plane. A worksheet provides some additional problems to help scholars master...

Three-dimensional space requires three coordinates. Makes sense, right? Scholars learn about coordinates in three-dimensional space. They watch a video that explains the three-dimensional coordinate system and highlights an exam problem...

Go the distance in learning about the coordinate system. Scholars watch a video that first explains how the distance formula is simply an application of the Pythagorean Theorem. They see how to determine the distance between two points...

Middle and high schoolers construct a triangle using Cabri Jr. They construct squares on each of the legs and hypotenuse of the triangle. Pupils show that the area of the squares on the leg equal the area of the square on the hypotenuse.

Learners practice generating parabolas with a motion sensor while determining the vertex form of the equation. They compare it to the regression equation from the calculator onto a data mate software. Each student completes several...

Students respond to questions based on quotes, research, and logic, and challenge problems related to the current objectives.

The Golden Ratio. The Divine Proportion. Yup. It's math and art blended into one colorful activity. Young artists combine colored tissue paper circles and parts of circles to create geometric patterns. As a bonus, kids get to figure out...

First graders learn the names of geometric shapes and about African cultures. In this geometry and culture lesson, 1st graders describe real world objects and learn to name them with geometric terms such as square, circle, and triangle....

Students investigate the architecture in their hometown by visiting buildings.  For this geometry lesson, students examine buildings through photographs and explain the different geometric shapes found in the architecture....

Tenth graders investigate the history of geometry and its different shapes. In this geometry lesson plan, 10th graders practice seeing three dimensional shapes and explain why there are only five polyhedra. They relate all the new...
