Fifth graders participate in a review game of geometry topics. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders use the "Eggspert" interactive classroom game system to review the geometry skills taught that week. Students work in teams to complete...

Students calculate the lines of symmetry using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students graph, compare and estimate using collected data. They identify different attributes to the polygons based on their sides.

Students build and create using math. In this geometry lesson plan, students differentiate between congruent and similarity as they observe polygons. They create robots with different functions using properties of geometry.

Students identify the different parts of a right triangle. In this geometry lesson, students use the Pythagorean Theorem to identify missing sides and angles of a right triangle. They work with irrational and rational roots.

Sixth graders engage in a visual arts lesson featuring still life sketching and watercolor painting created by individual students.

Sixth graders identify and use the concepts of shading, outline, and watercolor wash. They design a unique sequential still life painting with pencils and watercolors.

In this rotations worksheet, students complete problems having to do with shapes and their rotations, reflections, symmetry, translations, and more. Students complete 6 problems.

Learners explore geometry by participating in a pattern identification activity. In this tetrominoes lesson, students define the characteristics of congruent and symmetrical shapes. Learners practice translating shapes across quadrants...

Fourth graders calculate density, compare densities of solids and liquids, measure liquids using a balance, and investigate the significance of density. They conduct an experiment to determine an order of densities, and complete a...

Students investigate the ties that architecture and math have in common. They focus on works of architecture in the world that is considered of great significance. Students use the internet to find building images from around the world....

In this effect of transformations on coordinates worksheet, students determine the coordinates of 4 geometric shapes on a grid after a given transformation.

Seventh graders review the concept of finding the areas of a rectangle. This lesson uses the classroom as a real life application for the formula of area. They measure classroom in order to compute the area.

Students explore environmental awareness through reusing materials. For this environmental awareness lesson, students use trash to create a "trashasaurus," a large dinosaur sculpture made from waste. Detailed structure and papier-mâché...

Young scholars explore the concept of fractals. In this fractal lesson, students use applets to explore Koch's Snowflake, Sierpinski's Triangle, and other fractals. Young scholars develop these concepts through exploration and teacher...

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.

Students create a reading nook. For this measurement lesson, students find a spot in the classroom to turn into a reading nook. They need to measure how much space they need to fit students and supplies into their nook. 

Students create a bridge using engineering and geometric concepts. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the missing measures of polygons sides and angles. They work together to solve real life situation using...

Students explore math functions by completing math equation worksheets. In this inequality lesson, students define a list of math terms and discuss the difference between an equation and inequality. Students utilize a real life situation...

Students explore map distortion. In this geography lesson, students compare Mercator projection maps to globes in order to understand the strengths and weaknesses of projection maps.

Don't worry if you do not have the mentioned textbook; there is enough material here for you to carry out a pertinent polygon plan. After introducing your class to various polygons and the prefixes that help identify them, hand out...

Second graders, given geometric instructions, try to create their own Geo George puppet.

Second graders write in journals, recording personal thoughts about what they learned and/or something they are wondering about.

Students use shape puppets to review geometry content. They take turns singing songs, reading students poems, reciting class bulletin board notes and choral poems. They prepare for their summative assessments through play and interview...

Learners 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
