Third graders investigate congruent polygons through dance. In this congruency lesson, 3rd graders do the "brain dance" as a warm up. They review polygon names by singing "The Polygon Chant," before mirroring congruent shapes with a...

This unit on connecting algebra and geometry covers a number of topics including worksheets on the distance formula, finding the perimeter and area of polynomials, the slope formula, parallel and perpendicular lines, parallelograms,...

Learners sort and compare/contrast the lengths of various whales. They sort pictures of whales in order of smallest to largest, and given a rope marked with the lengths of the whales, they compare the actual lengths of the whales.

In addition to the catchy title, this lesson plan provides upper graders an opportunity to more closely scrutinize the attributes of plane figures. In particular, they focus on the similarity of different shapes. Both whole-class and...

Yes. Make up your mind to use this reading comprehension resource with your readers. You need not be nervous, not even a little nervous. An answer sheet is provided.

In this circles worksheet, students solve 10 multiple choice problems. Students answer questions about diameter and chord relationships, tangent lines to a circle, circumference, the Pi relationship, etc.

In this mathematics test book, students answer problems dealing with topics covered during the year. They solve problems dealing with percent, probability, properties, and interpreting graphs. This sixteen page learning exercise contains...

In  this standardized test preparation learning exercise, 8th graders solve several varying problems.  This twelve page test preparation learning exercise asks students to show their work and explain how they arrived at their...

Students explore the five basic elements of Monart, dot, curved line, straightline, and angle line to create a book about their home address. The concept of "big" is explored in this lesson plan.

Students play a game in which they name geometric shapes. In this geometric shape lesson, students ask "yes and no" questions to determine which shape one of their classmates has chosen. They ask questions that lead them to the name of...

Students explore geometry by drawing various shapes in class. In this triangle characteristics lesson, students identify the attributes that classify a shape as a triangle and practice using their bodies to create triangles in class....

Students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines. In this geometry lesson, students identify the different angles created by perpendicular lines and parallel lines. They name the angles that are form when parallel lines...

Third graders search for and locate examples of acute, right, straight and obtuse angles in the classroom. They record their findings by writing the exact location of each angle found and organize them into angle categories.

Although the title of Elizabeth Kann's story Pinkalicious isn't a real word, the book is an excellent way to explore some new vocabulary in context: acute, mushy, rare, steady, and surrounded. Find the...

Geometric shapes are the focus of a comprehension exercise that asks readers to examine a short passage about planes, circles, triangles, and rectangles, and then to respond to a series of questions about the article.

Why are there so many different types of triangles? Be that as it may, beginning geometers need to understand the differences between equilateral, isosceles, scalene, and right triangles, and they get a visual approach with this...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders complete an indirect proof and order the sides or angles of a triangle. Also, students determine if a triangle can have sides with the given lengths. The two page worksheet contains twelve...

Geometers employ a straight edge and compass to duplicate and bisect segments and angles, construct perpendiculars, parallel lines, figures, and circles with points of concurrency. Ample practice with 65 questions across 8 worksheets. No...

Middle and high schoolers solve and complete 29 various types of problems. First, they match each name with its correct formula. Then, students find the length of the missing side and the distance between the two points given. In...

Time for classes to show what they've learned. Use several tasks to assess understanding of the trigonometric functions, unit circle, radians, and basic trigonometric identities.

Young geometers investigate two-dimensional figures using coordinate grids. They identify polygons and draw examples of their reflection, rotation, and translation on a coordinate grid. And they complete a worksheet practicing examples...

Learners identify the stages of the water cycle. They listen to the book "Magic School Bus: Wet All Over," examine the Build Your Own Water Cycle website, predict and measure the amount of water in a jar for a week, and read a short play...

Geometry learners use hinged mirrors to discover that the regular polygons are composed of triangles tessellating around a center point. They sketch triangles on paper models of the regular polygons having 3 to 10 sides and compute the...

Did you see that or did I imagine it? Optical illusions are often created with mirrors and lenses, and here is a presentation that covers many different types of mirrors and lenses and how they work. Flat, concave, and convex mirrors, as...
