Students use poetry to share their feelings about the Holocaust. Using the internet, they research a major event of the twentieth century from a different viewpoint using the language of the foreign country. They use different...

Students listen to the math problem and discuss. They work alone or in groups to come up with the possible solutions and put their pictures of the bottle arrangements on the wall so that the class can refer to them.

In this two-step linear equations worksheet, 7th graders solve 15 various problems that include linear equations with more than one-step. First, they need to get the variable, x, alone by subtracting/adding the whole number on the same...

Students explore the concept of philanthropy. In this service learning lesson, students reflect upon the lesson that everyone contributes to make a better world as they plan and execute a tikkun olam project of their choosing to help the...

Students explore circles.  In this geometry lesson, students explore the relationship between the circumference of a circle, the distance a ball travels, and the number of rotations the ball must make in order to travel a certain...

In this congruency worksheet, students complete problems dealing with congruent and non-congruent figures. Students complete 5 short answer and multiple choice problems.

In this congruency worksheet, 5th graders complete 4 questions about congruent figures and transformations. Page has links to additional activities.

Learners make calculations in order to construct a kite in the shape of an isosceles right triangle. In this kite lesson plan students calculate altitude of their flying kites using a formula.

In this triangles and quadrilaterals worksheet, students solve 7 short answer problems. Students find objects around the house that are constructed from triangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, squares, rectangles. Students sketch the...

Students form repeating patterns using tessellations. In this tessellations instructional activity, students identify shapes and illustrate three types of transformations. A website is included with the instructional activity which...

Students utilize their observational skills. They explore body movements and facial clues of their partner and imitate them. Students practice and perform in front of the class. They write a story with a mirror as a major feature.

NOT A LESSON Students

Seventh graders review the process of finding the area of a rectangle and complete a couple of examples as a class. They discuss what a parallelogram is and what the formula would be for finding its area. They listen to an explanation...

Students work in pairs, to make a square on the geoboards with a rubber band (or draw one on the dot paper). It can be any size and in any location and share their answers with the class.

Pupils investigate the symmetry that is found in nature. They view shapes and patterns in nature while looking at images. Students look for tessellations while obtaining photographs with a digital camera. The information is used for...

Students examine tikkun olam. In this religion lesson, students define the concept of tikkun olam and identify actions that they can do to help make the "perfect world." Students share ideas and post their ideas on the class web.

Students observe the cracks in school walls and pavements. In this geometry lesson, students explore the factors to be considered before building a structure. They complete a graphing and calculation worksheet after the lesson.

Young scholars are introduced to translations, reflections, and rotations and how to explore them in real-world scenarios.

Students will be in groups and plot given points. From the given points the students will plot the appropriate reflection or translation.

Given a coordinate plane, the student will graph dilations, reflections, and translations, and use those graphs to solve problems.

Students move their cursor in this activity center to occupy a unique point on a background letter "F" in quadrant 1. Students then together follow a rule for going to a different point (such as "use the opposite of the original x...

In this activity, students will investigate the relationship among the three types of rigid transformations - translations, rotations, and reflections.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Translate, rotate, and reflect figures using coordinate notation and graphing in the coordinate plane.
