Parallel Lines Teacher Resources

Students construct midsegments. For this geometry lesson, students make conjectures and apply properties of triangles to solve problems. They complete an activity on the computer.

High schoolers participate in a disc golf game. They throw the flying disc to each hole/cone on the course, completing various fitness tasks and monitoring their heart rate on a heart rate monitor.

Students explore different types of quadrilaterals. Students define the terminology used with quadrilaterals. They create particular quadrilaterals based on specific characteristics of the quadrilaterals using an online tool.

Learners view a sample notebook of different types of clothing and techniques. In groups, they practice using the techniques to create their own sample notebooks. To end the lesson, they are introduced to more advanced sewing techniques...

Students promote Earth Day. In this Earth Day lesson, students create an Earth Day catch phrase and use graphic art design principles to make an Earth Day poster.

Fifth graders examine reasons for exploration, the outcomes, and various explorers. In this age of exploration lesson, 5th graders create a flipbook with timeline and images to showcase their knowledge. 

Students take the derivative of a function. For this calculus lesson, students define slope fields and what they are used for. They relate slope fields to the real world.

Learners define and identify shapes by name. In this geometry lesson, students construct, identify and compare polygons based on the number of sides. They classify each shape based on their angle sum theorem.

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 read books, learn about the letter p, and eat pigs n mud all to learn about pigs. In this pigs lesson plan, students also dance with pink ribbons and make pigs out of construction paper.

Students play a bingo-type game to locate cities by coordinates. They explain the use of orientation on a map and identify cities in the western hemisphere. They compare road maps, shutttle images, and a CIR image and obtain an...

Students determine if a place is safe or not based on certain criteria. They practice this exercise in class and share it with their family. They are evaluated on how well they can chose the safe place.

Learners review the principles of graphing linear functions. They discuss plotting points on a coordinate plane, solving using a table, and then graphing. Students solve problems and determine the slope of the line, y-intercept and if...

Students discover the right brain-left brain differences and then think about how to break down some of their self-criticism to try writing.

Fifth graders internalize the ability to recall, inform, or organize ideas when comprehending text. Students practice paraphrasing/summarizing by taking it to the playground. Students line up with 4B5 feet on each side of the group,...

First graders are consonants or vowels. If a vowel is called out the vowels try to run to the base line and the consonants chase them and try to tag them. If a consonant is called out, the consonants run to their base line chased by the...

Fourth graders identify and describe lines, shapes, and solids using formal geometric language. They use Inspiration to create a graphic organizer and outline of polygons.

Students solve 2 X 2 systems using graphing and algebraic methods.

High schoolers explore the concept of polygon properties. In this polygon properties lesson, students draw polygons with different numbers of sides such as pentagons, octagons, hexagons, etc. High schoolers identify different geometric...

Young scholars practice roller blading in a safe environment offering varying levels of skill challenges (slanted rope).

Ninth graders explore a variety of geometry and science concept while making an origami frog. The fold paper into the shape of a frog and conduct measurement activities including frog leaps.

Fourth graders use drawing and paint tools to identify, draw and state several geometric terms.

Students create a supersized spider web using yarn. They weave the yarn over and under an existing web to create a new design.

Students complete activities to learn about rhythm. In this rhythm and movement instructional activity, students role play a marching activity in groups. Students listen to music and move according to decorations. Students march in...
