Sixth grade students: design a stained glass window, submitting their initial plan detailing the measurements of all lines and angles. Seventh grade students: create a scale drawing of their own geometric family of four members.

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...

Learners use triangles to find the length and slope of each side. After connecting the vertices, they add points based on their specific instructions. They use the Pythagorean Theorem to complete a worksheet to end the lesson.

Third graders explore the attributes of polygons. In this geometric shapes lesson, 3rd graders review quadrilaterals, squares, rectangles, triangles, pentagons, hexagons, and octagons in order to create hanging polygons. Students then...

Students investigate the Pythagorean Theorem.  In this seventh through twelfth grade geometery lesson plan, students explore the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse and use it to find the length of the missing side of a right...

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.

Students practice latitude and longitude by identifying locations by degrees, use meanings of a.m. and p.m. appropriately, become familiar with 24-hour (universal) clock, and calculate time at different degrees longitude.

Students create a travel route among different landforms and way the cost and benefits of traveling this way. In this traveling lesson plan, students work in groups and analyze their conclusions.

Second graders, through large screen monitor, study geometric design. They participate in a diagnostic assessment in which they use pnecils, scissors and paste.

Students observe and solve examples of betweenness, ruler postulate, and segment addition postulate. They complete the Finding the Measure of Segments worksheet using the distance formula.

In this circle worksheet, pupils determine the number of degrees in a minor arc, find the area of a circle, find the area of a shaded region. This two-page worksheet contains six problems.

In this circle worksheet, students solve problems involving the circumference, area and arc length in a circle. They explore the union of circles and semicircles, as well as the line segments tangent to the circle. This two-page...

Learners explore the concept of fractals. In this fractals lesson, students play the "Chaos Game" via an applet. Learners place dots on the screen to recognize that they have created Sierpinski's Triangle.

Students explore the concept of the Pythagorean Theorem. In this Pythagorean Theorem lesson, students derive the distance formula and slope of a line from the Pythagorean Theorem.

Learners explore the concept of geometric shapes. For this geometric shape lesson, students play bingo to review geometric shapes. Learners identify the shape being described by the teacher and put a marker on their bingo card.

Tenth graders investigate the volume of a cylinder.  In this geometry lesson, 10th graders create three-dimensional cylinders and use a ruler to determine the dimensions.  The lesson progresses to the use of the formula to find...

Ninth graders design a safe passage through a 2-D obstacle. In this geometric math instructional activity, 9th graders engage in a hands on activity to better understand the concept of geometric and algebraic perpendicularity. Students...

In this trigonometry learning exercise, students prove that for the given conditions of the problem that cos y = cos2 x.  The one page learning exercise contains one problem with the solution. 

Students differentiate between ellipse and hyperbola. In this algebra lesson, students graph and solve elliptical equations. They use the cabri program to create the different conics and move them around.

Students investigate and solve Pythagorean triples. In this geometry lesson, students find the missing sides and angles of a right triangle. They graph right triangles and move the sides around to create different angles.

Students investigate the Pythagorean triples. In this geometry lesson, students solve for different parts of a right triangle. They identify the missing side or angle using the pythagorean theorem.

Students explore space shapes learning about edges, corners, and faces. They enjoy shape soup as a culminating activity.

Fifth graders, after seeing Honeycomb examples, complete a Classifying Angles worksheet, Clock worksheet, and Defining Angles worksheet.

What did you do over your summer vacation. Young wage earners must compare summer job options, and determine when each job earn the same amount and what that amount be. This be done by creating, graphing, and solving systems of...
