Fourth and fifth graders write the measurement of the missing angle in six problems include three triangles, a semi-circle, and two circles. They use a protractor and the given angle measurements to draw six angles.

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem in three-dimensional shapes. Young mathematicians watch a video that takes them through several examples of using the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems involving lengths in three-dimensional figures. A...

It doesn't matter whether secant lines intersect inside or outside the circle, right? Scholars extend concepts from the previous lesson to investigate angles created by secant lines that intersect at a point exterior to the circle....

Be sure your young mathematicians can work with scientific notation. Scholars first watch a video to review scientific notation. They then complete a worksheet requiring conversions and operations with scientific notation.

Explore how to visually represent probability problems. Scholars watch a video to refresh their memories on tree diagrams. To finish the activity, they complete a worksheet of questions on this topic.

The narrator of a short video explains the steps in constructing a triangle given the measure of two angles and the length of the side between the angles. The resource provides opportunities for pupils to practice the skill with two...

Students explore lines of symmetry in geometric shapes. In this geometry instructional activity, students construct angles using mirrors and rubberbands, then predict the number of images that will appear in the reflection. Students...

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

In this geometry worksheet, students use a ruler and a protractor to measure the lengths of the line segments and size of the angles that make up a drawing of a Christmas tree.  The one page worksheet has one problem.  Answers...

Learners investigate the connection that exists between Algebra and Geometry. They classify two and three-dimensional figures. Pupils use formulas to solve problems in geometry and use appropriate measuring devices in the right contexts.

Students discover rules for single transformations, rules for composition of transformations, when a figure has transformation symmetry, and if a transformation is congruent to its preimage.

Young mathematicians learn to see geometry from different angles with this simple printable resource. Providing multiple visual examples of angles, this simple document can be used as an instructional tool, a skills practice...

Young scholars measure angles.  In this angle instructional activity, students draw angles.  They  use a protractor to measure angles and identify the angle as straight, right, acute, or obtuse. 

In this classifying triangles instructional activity, 10th graders solve 9 various problems that classify triangles into categories. First, they refer to the figure shown of an isosceles triangle with two line parallel. Then, students...

Is that a right triangle or a wrong triangle? Young mathematicians look at eleven different shapes and use a measuring tool of their choice to determine which triangles have right angles. Consider cutting out sets of the shapes to...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Allow your pupils to become the mathematicians! Individuals explore the properties of a midsegment of a triangle through construction and measurement. Once they figure out the properties, learners use them to draw conclusions.
