Students explore tessellations that are found in nature and everyday objects. They observe the works of M.C. Escher. Students create their own tessellations using pencil and paper.

What if a coordinate plane becomes a slope-intercept plane? What does the graph of a linear function look like? Learners explore these questions by graphing the y-intercept of a linear equation as a function of its slope. The result is a...

Students calculate the area of a parallelogram. In this geometry activity, students perform translation using a coordinate plane and coordinate pairs. They perform translation on other polygons.

Students calculate the area of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of parallelograms and use to to solve problems. They create polygons using Cabri software.

In this math worksheet, students complete the practice exam that asks for the solution to the parametric equation. Also they name the perpendicular line in relation to it.

Learners investigate the side splitter theorem. In this geometry lesson, students estimate and solve problems dealing with ratios and proportions. They identify angles created by lines that are parallel.

Third graders describe and compare attributes of two-dimensional shapes. They explain geometric terms, angles and shapes. Students demonstrate each vocabulary word with their body and they mirror the body positions associated with each...

Young scholars explore the concept of linear equations. In this linear equation lesson, students change parameters of an equation and notice the effect it has on its graph.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the answer to a vocabulary questions and then follow the give rules to place the answer in the appropriate place on the crossword grid.   The one page worksheet contains 18...

In this math worksheet, 6th graders complete multiple choice questions about number sentences, composite numbers, angles, and more. Students complete 30 questions.

Learners build polygons on their geoboards. In this geometry lesson plan, students build and then draw it on paper and label it. Learners then switch with a partner to try an make a symmetrical shape.

Middle schoolers examine various triangles and discuss how similar triangles have sides that are proportional. They utilize an ancient Egyptian method to determine the height of a flagpole.

Third graders explore the history of tessellations; then use art and geometry to create an original tessellation.

Students are introduced to the basics of Geometry. Using cutout shapes, they identify whether they are polygons by using the properties of polygons. They practice drawing shapes they are going to be using on an everyday basis and...

Students create a matrix of the vertices of a triangle and produce new matrices that dilate, translate, rotate, and reflect the original triangle. After multiplying each matrix by a new scale factor, they graph the new matrix and...

Students investigate the properties of lines and congruent triangle theorems as well as apply geometric properties and relationships to real-world mathematical problems. Given two different scenarios, they examine maps that have been...

In this geometry worksheet, students solve problems that are bimodal. They define properties of circles and triangles. There are 117 questions.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders use a straightedge and a compass to construct congruent segments and angles, bisect a segment and an angle, construct perpendicular and parallel lines, construct tangents, circumscribe a circle...

In this linear function activity, students write the equation of a line, identify the slope, distance and midpoints. This one-page activity contains seven problems. Answers are provided at the bottom of the page.

Students review primary colors and practice making straight lines. In this visual arts lesson, students paint simple shapes as large as a toothpick, using specific primary colors. During the construction of the shapes students are...

Students make small cuts (fracture nuclei) in processed cheese food and then apply stresses perpendicular or parallel to the cuts to see how fractures grow. They make predictions before each experiment and explain their results to the...

Young scholars distinguish between positive and negative slope. They calculate the slope of various lines. Students identify and generate perpendicular and parallel lines base on their slope.

In this math worksheet, students determine if the information is used to describe a line. They examine the parametric and symmetric equations.

Fifth graders create a reflection of a poygon using a Mira. They discover that a line connecting a vertiex of a polygon and the corresponding vertex of its reflection is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Students create a glide...
