Pupils investigate the concepts related to the study of polygons. They specifically look at how angles is related. The lesson includes specific examples and dialogue to be used by the teacher during direct instruction and independent...

Seventh graders explore area and perimeter, using tangram pieces. They discover the area and perimeter of rectangles and squares. After experimentation, 7th graders write a rule for finding the perimeter and area of squares and rectangles.

Middle school geometers determine the area of a shape on a geoboard or dot paper and draw figures that meet given area conditions. Working as a class, they develop and discuss various ways to draw geometric shapes with specified...

Learners identify names of angles. They use a large clock to demonstrate angles using certain times of day. Given a geoboard, students create figures with acute, right, and obtuse angles.

With a creative premise involving a basketball competition, this game could be used to review basic science, grammar and math concepts in a fourth or fifth grade classroom. It is a fun idea, and a motivating way to review information....

Open up your pupils' eyes and minds on dilations. Scholars perform dilations on a trapezoid on the coordinate plane. They compare the image to the preimage and develop generalizations about dilations.

In this similar figure worksheet, students use similar figures and indirect measurement to determine distance.  They use proportions of similar figures to determine scale figures.  This two-page worksheet contains 8...

In this conditional statement learning exercise, students read statements and identify the inverse of the statement.  They write conditional statements based upon given criteria.  This two-page learning exercise contains 5...

Shape shifters recognize characteristics of polygons. Embracing language arts skills in addition to math, they use a thesaurus to pinpoint specific attributes of a set of polygons. They also participate in a 21-question guessing game...

Young scholars explore the concept of multiplying polynomials. In this multiplying polynomials lesson, students watch a video clip about basic math skills. Young scholars work in groups on an exploration about why a binomial squared...

Students analyze characteristics of geometric shapes. They find shapes in their environment, and communicate why it is like the shape of their choice and not like another shape.

Third graders use various shapes to identify polygons and understand symmetry. They explore pattern blocks noticing their similarities and differences, then share with other team members. They draw 3 polygons in their journals and...

In this geometry review game worksheet, students use the provided game cards and calling cards to play a Bingo-like game. Students learn geometric terms while playing a group game.

Fifth graders play Battleshapes which is a variation of Battleship with geometry. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders get a graph paper with four quadrants. They call out coordinate points and attempt to sink their opponents shapes. 

Students calculate the area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students find the area for trapezoids, rhombuses and kites.

Fifth graders connect their knowledge of polygons and polyhedrons. For this geometric shapes lesson, 5th graders identify and classify two- and three-dimensional objects. Students construct a polyhedron out of polygons and describe their...

Teach your pupils to calculate the area of different polygons. Learners create formulas to solve their problems. They use the TI navigator to graph their shapes and observe the change in area.

For this math worksheet, learners are asked to used a compass and straight edge to construct copies of shapes, angles and line segments.

Students study geometric shapes and practice naming them properly. In this geometry lesson, students work in groups to give definitions of the vocabulary to each other in their own words. Students also visit a lower grade and teach...

In this similar figures worksheet, students identify the meaning of similar, corresponding sides, and congruent.  They use proportions to find the length of a missing side.  Students dilate given figures according to a scale...

Learners investigate the process necessary to construct regular polygons. They explore the degree measures of the angles in a regular polygon. Using this information and technology in the form of Cabri Jr., your pupils will construct...

In this formulae worksheet, students find the value of a function, compute total cost, and simplify algebraic expressions. This four-page worksheet contains 30 problems.

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

Third graders discover elements in visual art. In this visual art lesson, 3rd graders explore the use of line, shape, and color in visual art. After reviewing works of art, students create unique art pieces. Technology resources provided.
