Tenth graders discuss the history of geometry as it relates to pentagons. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders solve problems of a pentagon inscribed inside of a circle using ratio. They review other properties for shapes of polygons...

Students develop their awareness that straight line segments can produce the illusion of a curve and helps them recognize and describe number patterns and geometric fundamentals.

Eighth graders investigate slopes using real life scenario. In this algebra instructional activity, 8th graders model and interpret real life data. They plot their data in a coordinate plane and discuss the results with the class.

Students discover which regular polygons can be used to tile a plane.

Learners create tessellations. In this geometry lesson plan, students use polygons to create different patterns by rotation. They identify the reasons for polygons to create the type of tessellation it does.

Learners identify shapes that will tessellate. They construct a tessellation using transformations. Students identify transformations in tessellations. They identify applications of transformations such as tiling and fabric design.

Students investigate shapes. For this dimension and orientation of shapes lesson, students identify and color shapes, use shape stamps to form animals, glue shapes together to make other objects and describe how shapes are used.

Students create tessellations. In this math lesson, students explore symmetry and patterns through the creation of a tessellation. Students design and create their own tessellation.

Students create and color a one-patch quilt design based upon a regular hexagon. They examine quilts and photos of quilt designs, read a handout, and complete their quilt design on a worksheet.

In this angle worksheet, students answer forty mental math questions divided into four problem sets.  These problems require students to remember angle facts and so simple calculations mentally.

Young scholars investigate the geometrical concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation. They make different observations looking for the concepts that are displayed in classroom items like floor tiles, carpet designs, and visuals...

Second graders and teachers identify geometric vocabulary word by searching a geometry website. They create a Quilt Word Wall using the geometry words.

In this geometry worksheet, learners choose the multiple choice answer to 15 questions involving several different elements of geometry.

Students examine new shape possibilities by combining two and four triangles using manipulatives.

Fifth graders investigate the relationship between math and art by examining patterns and polygons.They examine how polygons make up the patterns that form tessellations, and determine tessellations that occur in nature. Finally, they...

Third graders become more familiar with various geometric shapes by completing the games and activities in this instructional activity. They keep track of the number of each shape they use in each of the three ways.

Students watch and discuss an M. C. Escher video, use what they have learned to explain and apply their knowledge of tessellations in order to create a slide translation, present their findings in a 12" x 18" poster, and explore...

Learners observe a selection of shapes. They identify which shapes will tessellate and justify their answer. Students apply the symmetry and angle properties of polygons to create tessellations.

Seventh graders produce a tessellation of an original design developed using an equilateral triangle, where three unique symmetrical faces rotate throughout their creation.

Students establish classifications of shapes by various properties (angles, sides, etc.). They introduce the important properties of common shapes. Students develop an awareness of the wide variety of ways the 2-D shapes can be alike.

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. 

In this shapes definitions worksheet, students match a set of descriptions with their correct shape names, 10 total, then answer a set of 4 additional questions. Answers included on page 2.

In this online interactive math skills worksheet, students solve 10 multiple choice math problems regarding geometry skills. Students may view the correct answers.
