Young scholars classify angles. In this angles lesson, students explore the characteristics of angles, triangles, quadrilaterals and circles. They identify polygons and sing a classifying angles song. Young scholars participate in a...

Ninth graders investigate quadrilaterals.  In this geometry lesson, 9th graders examine and classify quadrilaterals using the slope, midpoint and distance formulas.  Additionally, students create various quadrilaterals given...

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry lesson plan, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

Students explore differents types of triangles and quadriaterals. For this polygon lesson, students  model identify and compare two and three dimensional geometric figures. Students create tangrams and discover the difference...

Sixth graders build figures out of tangrams. In this symmetry lesson, 6th graders view tangrams and identify the polygons included in them. Students divide into groups, identify their tangram pieces, define the lines of symmetry, and use...

Students look at the geometry in an artwork. In this art history/geometry lesson, students research the artist Charles Sheeler and look at his painting Stacks in Celebration. They find the different types of lines, angles, and...

In this understanding triangles worksheet, students read 6 pages of examples and explanations about identifying triangles, determining length of sides and degrees of angles, including the hypotenuse, then answer 28 questions, answers...

In this geometry worksheet, students answer questions about triangles and trapezoids as it related to the area of a shape. They make their own polygons and calculate the area.

Students explore the origin of tangram. In this algebra lesson plan, students form different shapes and figures using tangram. They solve for the area of different shapes without using any geometric formulas, but the idea of tangram...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders calculate the perimeter and area using the specific formula for that polygon. There are 5 questions with an answer key.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders examine the effect of changing the dimensions of a figure proportionally on the perimeter, circumference, and area.  The one page worksheet contains six problems.  Answers are...

Using a TI Navigator to drag quadrilaterals around to create different shapes, students learn how to draw midpoints in their quadrilaterals. In this geometry lesson, students solve problems using the properties of quadrilaterals. 

Young scholars calculate the area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students find the area of complex polygons. They solve word problems using rates and distances.

Students calculate the volume of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students identify the relationship between base and height. They calculate the area of each prism and cylinder.

Tenth graders are provided instructions, including a video, on calculating the surface area of a prism. The one-page interactive worksheet contains two worked questions. Answers are included. 

Learners explore a variety of geometric shapes, name them, and list their characteristics. The shapes are transposed into structures and checked for accuracy.

In this area of triangles practice instructional activity, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

In this street map worksheet, learners observe the street map and answer short answer questions using the map. Students complete 4 questions.

In this all about quadrilaterals activity, students interactively answer 10 multiple choice questions about quadrilaterals, then click to check their answers.

In this geometry worksheet, students match 5 shapes to several terms, determine the radius and diameter from 2 diagrams, and find the area and perimeter of 3 problems.

Students calculate the area and diameter length of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the use of pivots as they review parts of a circle. They create a circle using cardboard and label all the parts.

In this polygons instructional activity, students classify each polygon in as many ways as possible. Students then write polygon or not a polygon to classify each figure and find the measure of the missing angles. Students finish with...

Young scholars solve for the area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students identify and differentiate between regular and irregular polygons. They use properties of irregular polygons to solve problems.

Second graders explore shapes. After reading books about shapes, 2nd graders describe the properties of various shapes. They identify shapes if they have been rotated, flipped, or slid. Students create shapes using drawings and geoboards.
