Translation and Reflection
Bring about the change you want to see in the world or at least in your lesson plans. Young mathematicians learn about translation and reflections by applying them to polygons on the coordinate plane. Results provide data to develop...
Curated OER
Design Explorations: Frieze Patterns
Young scholars will explore frieze patterns. A frieze pattern is a mathematical concept to classify designs on two-dimensional surfaces, which are repetitive in one direction, based on the symmetries in the pattern. They will explore...
Curated OER
Punch Patterns
Fifth graders duplicate patterns, guess pattern results and identify the symmetries created. They are given an instructional handout, 5th graders replicate the patterns demonstrated by folding the paper and punching the appropriate...
Curated OER
Transformations, Tessellations, and Technology
Young scholars complete a unit about transformations and tessellations. They explore various tessellation websites, determine which shapes tessellate, complete a log about which website activities they complete, and create a...
Curated OER
Angle Exploration and Classification
Students compare and contrast angles and identify them as acute, obtuse, right, or straight angles. They create rays and angles using uncooked spaghetti, read and discuss key vocabulary terms, and complete a variety of geometry worksheets.
Curated OER
A Geometry Worksheet - Similar Triangles
In this similar triangles worksheet, students find the scale factor of 6 sets of similar triangles. Students find the scale factor of two similar triangles given a sketch with measurements. Students use proportions to find a missing side...
Curated OER
Geometry Scavenger Hunt
Pupils use the digital camera, identify geometric shapes (in nature as well as man-made), and gain a better understanding of geometric vocabulary. They search for and recognize geometric shapes in unusual settings
Curated OER
Transformations and Translations
In this transformations/translation worksheet, students draw transformations based on shapes and vectors of given translations. A reference web site is given for additional activities.
Curated OER
Data Representation
Pupils solve real life scenarios using math. In this geometry lesson, students collect, predict and interpret data. They measure a chair using different measurements and choose what would make the chair the best design.
