Students differentiate between corresponding sides ad angles of two triangles. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the differences as well as the similarities between two triangles. They differentiate between...

This is an integrated lesson that incorporates Social Studies, Science, and Mathematics. In Social Studies, 7th graders complete an online interview and complete an online worksheet about latitude of sites on the Anza trail. In Science...

Learners investigate the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson plan, students define angles and sides of right triangles. They calculate the area and surface area using formulas derived by the Pythagorean Theorem.

Students find the median of trapezoids and other polygons. In this geometry lesson, students identify important properties of trapezoids. They create trapezoids and polygons using Cabri software.

Students differentiate between similarity and congruence using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students label triangles based on their properties. They find missing sides and angles using the interior sum theorem.

In this properties of geometric shapes learning exercise, 4th graders write the words all, some or no to complete twelve statements about the properties of the shapes.

Young scholars research and identify important events in the history of space exploration. They work in groups of three to four in order to research an important astronaut and record their finding on a poster board and present to the class.

Students explore the concept of stem and leaf plots.  In this stem and leaf plots lesson plan, students plot the 50 US states' capitals on a stem and leaf plot according to the first letter of each state.  Students compare...

Young scholars investigate the parameters involved with launching a basketball at an angle.  In this motion lesson plan students predict and sketch graphs that show the motion of a ball toss. 

Students define properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify the relationship between two and three dimensional objects. They use Cabri technology to graph their figures.

Students explore the properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They use Cabri technology to create polygons and solve problems.

In this area worksheet, students solve for the area of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, trapezoids, kites, regular polygons, circles, and surface area.  The worksheets is divided into seven different sets of problems.

Students identify properties of trapezoids. For this geometry lesson, students are put into groups and use computer programs to analyze polygons. They drag and move the shapes around as they make predictions.

Students identify properties of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students label polygons as parallelogram or not. They define and label the properties of a kite.

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.

Using a twelve foot knotted rope, young scholars form a 3-4-5 right triangle. Following a discussion of observations about the lengths of the sides of the triangle, students use grid paper, scissors and a centimeter ruler to draw and...
