In this mathematics test bookelt, students solve problems studied during the year.  They solve problems covering topics such as probability, angle intersection, commission, percent, exponents, similar figures, and reading and...

Farming is full of mathematics, and it provides numerous real-world examples for young mathematicians to study. Here, we look at a cylinder-shaped storage silo that has one flat side. Given certain dimensions, students need to determine...

Third graders describe an amount of turn from a particular position to another using the 'circular' benchmarks of 0, ++, ++, ++, and full turn. Estimation language such as 'just about', 'between', 'not quite', 'just over', and similar...

Have scholars show what they know with a 20-page assessment aligned to the California State Standards. The test covers concepts such as large and whole numbers, all four mathematical operations, fractions, decimals, geometric figures,...

Show your class one way in which art and math are related by teaching them about M.C. Escher. Class members read a brief passage and then respond to five related questions.

In this properties of quadrilaterals instructional activity, students use the properties of quadrilaterals to find the perimeter, angle measurement or length of a missing side of a given polygon. Examples and explanations of the...

In this trigonometry activity, students find the missing angle and sides given the 6 trigonometric values. There are 6 questions with an answer key.

For this VSEPR worksheet, students are given 4 compounds. They write the name of each compound, the name of the shape it forms, the bond angles within the compound and the Lewis structure for each.

Third graders utilize different types of computer programs, such as Microsoft paint and Microsoft Word to study and create different types of polygons. They use PowerPoint to create a story about a shape and others that it meets during a...

Students investigate how geometry can be used in the field of fitness and physical performance. They view a video that demonstrates how doctors and therapists mention geometry as they treat sports-related injuries.

Students analyze relationship between the increase in polygons sides and a circle. In this geometry instructional activity, students relate the size of the central angle of a polygon, to a circle. They compare the formula for the area of...

Second graders explore triangles and quadrilaterals. They rotate to various centers in the room to identify and examine triangles and quadrilaterals. After presenting a picture to the class, 2nd graders locate right angles, triangles...

Questions related to math vocabulary from a large variety of categories for 4th graders are displayed throughout this Jeopardy game. Concepts covered include angles, shapes, computation terms, statistics, and place value.

Student identify the solution using geometric mean. In this geometry activity, students create right triangles where the altitude of the triangle is the side containing the right angle. They modify shapes using Cabri software and observe...

Students engage in a lesson plan that is about the classification of triangles and the mathematical proofs involved in working with them. They work on a variety of problems that are created by the teacher with the focus upon the...

In this constructions and loci worksheet, students create a scale drawing of a running track. They identify the starting positions for a given race. Students bisect angles. They construct an angle trisector. This three page worksheet...

In this geometry worksheet, students define and draw quadrilaterals. They differentiate between the different shapes. There are 3 questions with an answer key.

Students use wax paper to look at different properties of circles such as chords, tangent lines, inscribed angles, and inscribed angles in a semi-circle, as well as finding the center of the circle, and use GSP to investigate cyclic...

Pupils, in groups, construct different angles and shapes on a large scale using string and chalk.

Eighth graders find the length of the third side of a right triangle.

Building on young mathematicians' prior knowledge of three-sided shapes, this lesson series explores the defining characteristics of different types of triangles. Starting with a shared reading of the children's book The Greedy...

Militaries throughout history have used topography information to plan strategies, yet many pupils today don't understand it. Scholars use Legos and a contour gauge to understand how to construct and visualize topographic profiles. This...

Older artists create 2-dimensional surfaces with paint, then use these paintings as the components of a 3-dimensional sculpture. They assemble a free-standing sculpture that may be viewed from any angle by using wire to create the shape....

After walking in a nearby neighborhood, have your class create this amazing city street pop-up. They study the facades of the buildings they see, focusing on geometric line, shape, and architecture. They then draw, cut, and create a city...
