Don't go around and around, help your class determine amounts around and in a circle with a video that connects circumference to the perimeter or the distance around an object. The resource includes 14 questions dealing with circles and...

Scholars learn how to determine the area of compound shapes by finding the areas of the basic shapes that make it up. Pupils find the areas by adding areas together or subtracting them.

Two videos show first how to perform a rotation, given the center, the angle, and the direction of rotations. Individuals then see how to find what the rotation is from one figure to another. Pupils practice doing both in seven problems...

Make enlargements with and without centers. Pupils work through seven problems dealing with dilations or enlargements. The first couple items are strict enlargements without centers, while the others have centers. Class members also...

Viewers learn how to identify and perform a variety of transformations with a video that provides seven items on transformations. Pupils demonstrate their understanding of dilations, reflections, rotations, and translations. The video...

A dimensional resource teaches viewers to recognize 2-D views of 3-D objects and how to match nets with their 3-D figures. Individuals draw different views of three-dimensional objects including views from the front, side...

Order the data within a stem-and-leaf display. Pupils take data and create and ordered stem-and-leaf diagrams, including the key. Participants take their data and determine answers about the information. Class members then find...

Young mathematicians connect vectors to geometric shapes by watching a video that expresses vectors in relation to the sides of geometric figures. They then apply what they learned by completing a worksheet of practice questions.

Scholars learn how to write number theory proofs by viewing a video reviewing techniques for proofs on divisibility, parity, and consecutive integers. They then write proofs for a handful of conjectures on a activity.

The Kuril islands stretch from Japan to Russia, and the ongoing dispute about their jurisdiction prevents many scientific research studies. Scholars learn to create a topographic profile of a specific area around their schools. Then they...

Starting with questions about the tilt of the Earth and apparent motion of the sun, a worksheet provides instructions on how to figure the paths of the Sun on certain dates. Learners answer three more questions, complete with...

Start out with angles by asking your pupils to read this reading passage. Class members will learn about degrees, right angles, acute angles, and obtuse angles and then respond to five questions about the text.

Add up areas of squares to discover the pythagorean relationship. Small groups create right triangles with squares along each side. They calculate the areas of each square and notice the relationship. Groups construct other types of...

How do dilated line segments relate? Lead the class in an activity to determine the relationship between line segments and their dilated images. In the fourth section in a unit of 16, pupils discover the dilated line...

When the sun's rays can't reach the producers in a food web, where does all the energy come from? Extreme environments call for extreme food sources. Young scientists investigate creatures that appear to get their energy from methane...

Students investigate angles through construction. In this geometry activity, students use a protractor to identify the measurement of an angle. They identify angles cut by a transversal and two parallel lines.

Students create a tessellations using rotation and translation. They also create a tessellation using reflection.

A six-page packet walks, or bends learners through angles that combine to create triangles. Definitions are given for right triangles, obtuse and acute triangles. They draw angles according to directions, using a protractor to meet the...

Your class examines a series of shapes and discusses how we know that they are not circles. In this way, you begin to acquaint them with the properties and parts of this geometric figure. Then, teach them how to use a protractor to...

Fifth graders explore to find the central angle and percent. In this circle graph lesson plan, 5th graders use formulas to calculate the central angle and a protractor to create their graph. Students complete a graphing sheet for homework.

Young scholars utilize triangulation techniques to determine altitudes of objects. An altitude locator is constructed and used to determine the height of a building or a tree. Tangent tables and formulas provide the ratio for the formula...

In this geometry worksheet, students construct angles and identify medians and altitudes. They use a compass and protractor to perform heir construction. There are 28 questions.

Students devise procedures for using a protractor to measure the number of degrees in an angle. They use inductive reasoning skills to construct their own method for effectively using the protractor to measure angles, as well as, make...

Learners create a sextant. Using their sextant, students measure the height of tall objects. Learners explore how sailors used sextants to identify their location on the ocean. They research how sextants are created.
