Students study several different types of Chinese sports played throughout history in China. They examine the historical perspective of the importance of sports in Chinese culture and create a final project using information about three...

Students recognize, describe, and perform transformations (rotation/turn, reflection/flip, and translation/slide) on two dimensional shapes.

Students assign numbers to describe objects. In this number lesson plan, students assign numbers to objects and compare more, less, and equal values. They write down descriptions of plants including the number of leaves and height of the...

First graders review the placement of positional words and shapes. In groups, they travel between eight centers throughout the classroom in which they participate in various activities. They focus on concepts that are related to Geometry.

Students construct ratios using the hand as data. They use examples of cortical and trabecular bone found in the long bones to measure circumference, diameter, length, and weight of long bones. They perform computations using growth...

Students explore one to one number correspondence. In this early math lesson plan, students make observations about and classify plants in order to gain an understanding of using numbers to describe their world.

Students create pattern books. For this math patterns lesson, students create various patterns using manipulatives. Students take digital photographs of the patterns and create books.

Second graders draw a model using correctly formed geometric shapes. In this geometric shapes lesson, 2nd graders notice geometric shapes in the world around them and accurately draw these shapes.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart uses tangrams to teach geometric principles. There are many opportunities for students to interact and practice with tangrams.

The teacher will engage the class by reading Grandfather Tang. Young scholars will solve a tangram puzzle. Students will find the fractional value for each piece of the tangram. Young scholars will create a picture using the pieces of...

[Free Registration/Login Required] Students will read an online story that integrates the use of tangrams. They will then use problem solving skills to recreate characters for the story.

In this section different interactive activities are presented which can be used as supplementary material to traditional classroom and allow for interactive study of mathematics.

The purpose of this task is for students to compose two-dimensional shapes to create a composite shape using tangram pieces. The teacher will read "Grandfather Tang's Story" and the students will use tangrams to compose the animals from...

The Chinese character mark for Tan II (pronounced she-tow-bah) is the second of two lessons to introduce first grade learners to geometry using tangrams. This lesson incorporates history, math, and language arts. In this lesson students...

This page offers a variety of math center ideas for general math and geometry. Instructions on setting up the center are not provided for most ideas, however, those lacking instructions are pretty self-evident.
