Quadratic Modeling
Use a one-stop resource for everything you'd possibly want to teach about quadratic functions and models. Scholars analyze key features of quadratic functions as well as transformations of functions through seven activities....
Bowland
Pointzero: Confined
Groups plan their escape carefully. Three three-tiered puzzles help a story character escape their situation, each involving integer sequences, transformations, and geometric constructions. The teacher resource includes...

Tessellation Sensation
Geometers investigate patterns and symmetry, and examine the artwork of M.C. Escher on the Internet. They compare his style to the floor and ceiling tiles in the classroom. If you have ImageBlender™ software, you could have your...
Curated OER
Fractal and the Dragon Curve
Students explore Fractal designs. In this geometry lesson, students observe the different polygons created in nature and relate it to math. They define polygons on planes and rotate polygons about a point.
Curated OER
Transformers
Learners use transformation to move the graph around. In this geometry lesson plan, students observe transformation of symmetry groups. They use the TI to move the sides of the polygons around and make predictions.
Curated OER
Keeping in Shape
Third graders describe patterns in terms of reflection and rotation symmetry, and translations. They design and make a pattern which involves translation, reflection, or rotation. They demonstrate why a given tessellation covers the...
Curated OER
Let the Matrix Do It
Students create a matrix of the vertices of a triangle and produce new matrices that dilate, translate, rotate, and reflect the original triangle. After multiplying each matrix by a new scale factor, they graph the new matrix and...
Curated OER
students rotate through four workstations that reinforce the concept of symmetry
Second graders, in pairs, use arrays to explore the relationship between multiplication and division.
Curated OER
Mum's Kitchen Floor
Students discuss patterns on a chess board examining symmetries. They read the problem and then brainstorm for ways to solve the problem. As they complete the floor pattern, they record symmetries that it contains.
Curated OER
Tessellating Art
Fourth graders create artwork showing their own unique tessellating shapes. They apply the symmetries of a regular polygon and describe the reflection or rotational symmetry of a figure or object. They share their art work with the class.
Curated OER
No-Three-In-A-Line Again
Learners interpret information and results in context while using words and symbols to generalize patterns. They use symmetry and angle properties of polygons to solve practical problems and identifying invariant properties under...
Curated OER
Geo Jammin By Design: The Important Thing
Students brainstorm what they know about geometric terms and patterns. They identify symmetry, shapes and congruency. They create a book of symmetry.
Curated OER
Spiders' Wheel
Students engage in a lesson plan which reinforces the concepts of clockwise and anti-clockwise rotation, while developing an understanding that angles are measured in degrees. They utilize a mathematics educational program to gain practice.
Curated OER
Noughts
Students try to figure out the strategies to the game Noughts. Students logic must play a part in the process of the game. Students apply the symmetries of regular polygons. Students devise ways to critically follow a chain of reasoning.
Curated OER
Reflecting a Rectangle Over a Diagonal
Use the handout as guided or independent practice in drawing a reflection of a rectangle over a line. Three rectangles are provided for practice in addition to a critical thinking question.
Curated OER
What are Fractals?
Middle and high schoolers identify and analyze fractals and research information using the Internet to locate information about them. They look at fractals in relation to nature and other real world situations. Pupils create several...
Curated OER
Miras, Mirrors, and Kaleidoscopes!
High schoolers use hands-on activities to explore transformations. They view a video segment that demonstrate how M. C. Escher employed geometry and transformations to create so many of his famous drawings.
Curated OER
Building Big and Strong
Middle and high schoolers explore the concepts of architectural rigidity. They analyze a variety of polygons, and explain why some shapes add more strength to structures than others. The PBS video, "Building Big," is utilized in this plan.
