Building Blocks of Geometry

Tenth graders solve problems using the correct tools. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders solve problems by constructions and graphing. They use a protractor, compass and straight edge to help create angles and bisectors. The identify...

Help 9th graders identify lines, points, rays, and planes in geometry. They  practice identifying, measuring, and drawing angles of different degrees. This is a fundamental lesson to help students learn the building blocks of geometry.

In this geometry worksheet, students answer questions about midpoints, distance, lines and segments. They are given different shapes and asked to calculate the angles, and sides of polygons.

In this geometry learning exercise, students identify points, lines, planes, rays, segments and angles. They classify the intersection of geometric figures. This three-page learning exercise contains examples, detailed instructions, and...

Students use pattern blocks to create a figure that is described to them and establish a pattern based on the description of the geometric figure. For this pattern blocks lesson plan, students fill out shape and fraction worksheets.

Build up the basics of geometry, one point at a time. The segment in an extensive playlist on basic geometry provides the definitions of the essential building blocks of geometry. Using drawings, the video shows examples and descriptions.

Five questions make up an interactive all about whole-number exponents. Movable building blocks create a visual tool to aide mathematicians in answering multiple-choice and true or false problems. The interactive ends with a discussion...

Build a pyramid of sums. An interactive presents the first five rows of Pascal's Triangle as a pyramid. Pupils match missing entries in the pyramid and continue the pattern to determine entries of other rows. The learners use the entries...

A five-question interactive provides a horizontal number line where integers are stacked on top of one another to find solutions of addition problems. Mathematicians move numbers to the numbers line, as numbers build higher, the sum of...

Investigate polynomial factoring patterns by finding a connection to volume. As learners build a three-dimensional solid from smaller solids, they convert the visual model to a mathematical expression. Their models represent the sum of...
