Area, Perimeter and Rations Using Pentominoes
Learners of all ages investigate area and perimeter through pentominoes. In this geometry lesson, young scholars calculate the are and perimeter of different geometric shapes and describe the properties of similar and congruent shapes....
Curated OER
Area And Perimeter Using Pentominoes
Third graders engage in an enrichment lesson exploring the concepts of area and perimeter. They construct new pentominoes that are 3 times the size of normal ones and then identify the area and perimeter measurements. They then create a...
Curated OER
Pent-up Pentominoes
Students explore pentominoes in this activity. They build shapes as directed and color the tiles on their grid sheet.
Curated OER
Perfectly Puzzling Pentominoes
Second graders utilize manipulatives (pentominoes) to demonstrate knowledge of: lines of symmetry, slides, reflections (flips), rotations (turns), area, and perimeter. This instructional activity gives students a meaningful way to...
Curated OER
Geometry Finding Pentominoes
Learners explore the characteristics of geometric shapes. In this geometric shapes lesson plan, students use tiles to draw pentominoes. Learners participate in various learning center activities focused on configuring pentominoes.
Curated OER
Tiling with Pentominoes
In this tiling with pentominoes worksheet, 10th graders solve 3 different problems related to tiling with pentominoes. First, they define pentomino as a type of polygon and locate 10 other pentomino shapes in the figure shown at the top....
Curated OER
Pent-up Pentominoes
First graders are introduced to pentominoes in this activity. Using the Internet, they match pentominoes with the same shape and use a grid sheet to make their own. They are read books by their teacher and they identify the pentominoes...
Curated OER
Polynominoes
In this polynominoes learning exercise, students solve 9 different types of polynominoes problems. First, they identify that a polynominoe is a polygon made from squares of the same size and connected to each square. Then, students...
