Students predict the number of cells after a series of cell divisions.  In this cells activity students create a graph of their results and create a patterned drawing. 

Students investigate the concepts relating to creating a tessellation. They include using pattern blocks in order to create interconnecting patterns. Students review translations, rotations, and reflections.

Fourth graders solve a series of parallel problems. They use statistics, geometrical, and numerical aspects to solve the problem. Students create a pattern that answers the problem.

For this drawing worksheet, students copy a number of shapes and then practice drawing the shape in the box provided at the bottom of the worksheet.

Students 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.

What a wonderful resource! Learners create two-dimensional shapes according to the instructions stated, use the squares to make a triangular prism, a cube, and a pyramid, and identify features of plane shapes, among a myriad of other...

Eighth graders will examine the use of Japanese ar tforms. The paper lantern is the example drawn from for learners to connect with the culture. The end result is a creative project that should reflect the culture of Japan.

In this problem solving strategy instructional activity, students complete a graphic organizer to help solve a problem. Students complete 4 sections: understand, plan, solve and look back. Houghton Mifflin text referenced.

Second graders, through large screen monitor, study geometric design. They participate in a diagnostic assessment in which they use pnecils, scissors and paste.

Students discover the relationship between the sides of a polygon and the number of diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex, the number of triangles that those diagonals form, and the sum of the interior angles of that polygon.

Tenth graders identify and analyze appropriate key vocabulary terms associated with transformations and reflection. Students experience creating and recognizing reflection with hands-on manipulations. Students discover real-world...

Students listen to a read aloud of The Quiltmaker's Gift by Jeff Brumbeau finding examples of symmetry in the illustrations in the book.

Young scholars utilize higher thinking skills to expand their self concept to include physical, cognitive, and affective frontiers. The teacher create activities which allow students to use raw data and primary sources, as well as...

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 explore the complexity of handmade quilts and their designs by looking a real life samples.

Second graders practice new geometry vocabulary by putting the words to the tune of "Hokey Pokey." students use the lyrics as a guided reading experience.

In this tracing worksheet, students practice tracing a specific shape or line a number of times on the page. They do not practice writing it on their own.

Students recognize that quilts are created by geometric components. They examine how quilts are an artistic art form that show the cultural heritage of the people who make them.

Students investigate the culturally artistic value of quilts, the importance of trade in meeting basic needs, and the conservation of natural resources.

Students review definitions of word wall words using songs, movement and sharing.

Students search the school grounds for examples of symmetry in nature. They bring examples back to the classroom and write about them.
