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

Young scholars construct the tangram pieces from a square paper by following directions to fold and cut. They make observations on the pieces formed and compare how they are related to each other. They explore patterns and shapes with...

Students examine various closed and open figures. They decide which letters have closed figures. Then they receive a pre-made name card and decorate every closed figure in their name.

Fourth graders are introduced to the vocabulary needed to identify the attributes of two and three-dimensional figures. They work together to create a word wall, which contains the geometric terminology being learned.

Fifth graders use Geoboards to demonstrate how shapes can be made by looping the rubber bands over the nails. They make a triangle on their Geoboards. At least one side of the triangle should be either horizontal or vertical. The picture...

Second graders gain an understanding of geometric shapes and spatial reasoning. They learn the attributes of solid shapes in everyday activities. Students compare geometric shapes to everday objects, finding things that serve a purpose...

Students investigate the concept of tessellations and how they are formed using angles. They categorize how different patterns do and not tessellate and separate them into two different places for assessment. The teacher draws examples...

Learners use problem solving skills, formal geometry, and The Geometer?s Sketchpad. They model and solve two real-world problems by constructing the in center and circumcenter of triangles.

Students engage in a lesson that is about the concept of data analysis with the use of quadratics. They use a Precalculus text in order to give guidance for independent practice and to serve as a source for the teacher to use. The data...

Students explore the coordinate plane. For this secondary mathematics lesson, students follow a set of directions to plot points in the coordinate plane.

Working with real world applications of quadratic models, students solve four practical problems requiring the use of the quadratic equation. They are guided through the process by a series of questions following each problem.

In this geometric patterns worksheet, students learn to solve problems that use geometric patterns and solid figures. Students solve six word problems.

Tenth graders identify homogeneous tessellations. In this model-based lesson, 10th graders make and identify homogeneous tessellations, both regular and semi-regular.

Students determine the distance of a sphere rolling down an incline.  In this physics lesson students participate in a lab that demonstrates how inclined planes make work easier. 

Eighth graders resolve vector problems without the knowledge of math.  In this vectors lesson students with poor math skills get a chance of passing the course. 

In this shape and figure worksheet, students read a description of a shape, name it and then draw it, 2 shapes total. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this construction geometric shapes worksheet, student use the software program for instruction then construction shapes and bisect angles for four questions.

In this prisms worksheet, students answer 10 multiple choice problems about prisms.  Students determine the number of faces a prism has, characteristics of figures, etc.

In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders are given the surface area of a cube that is inscribed in a sphere and must determine the surface area of the sphere.  The one page instructional activity contains one...

In this Pre-Calculus activity, students solve problems involving periodic functions.  The three page activity contains twenty-three problems.  Answers are not provided. 

Students calculate the center mass of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, students use the median to find the center mass. They discuss the different characteristics of triangles and their center of mass.

Fourth graders investigate regular polygons. In this regular polygon lesson, 4th graders explore the attributes of different polygons. Students work in groups to complete a KWL chart regarding polygons.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Understand how angles are formed and identify an angle's rays and vertex. Students can master the concept by watching a video, examining guided notes, reviewing...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Learn to complete the square in order to write quadratic equations in vertex form.
