Parallelogram Teacher Resources

Classify this resource into the "Use" pile. Scholars use an interactive coordinate plane to plot polygons given coordinates for the vertices. They use properties to classify each polygon and answer a few challenge questions regarding the...

Classify quadrilaterals quickly. After playing a game to identify quadrilaterals, your young scholars should come away with knowledge of the properties of quadrilaterals. They then apply this knowledge to create a decision tree to ease...

They've all got four sides, but some have more interesting properties. Scholars learn the names of quadrilaterals. They also explore some properties of these quadrilaterals, including congruent angles, congruent and parallel sides, and...

Four angles hath quadrilaterals, but what be their measures? After watching a video, young mathematicians consider the interior angles of quadrilaterals. They see how to find missing angle measures using the properties of quadrilaterals.

Just how much spray paint does a mural require? Using proportions, graffiti artists determine the amount of supplies needed to complete a mural. The creative resource shows how to determine the area of composite figures and uses that...

Use rectangles to find distances. Given a rectangle and three associated triangles, pupils determine the area of the triangles. Scholars know the three triangles have equal areas along with the perimeter of the rectangle and two other...

Twelve chapters cover a multitude of math concepts found in the Common Core standards for sixth grade. Each title provides a brief explanation of what you will find inside the chapter—concepts from which you can click on and learn more...

Yes, it will be on the test. Young mathematicians first view an educational video to refresh their memories about material from the unit. They then complete a review worksheet where they find the measures of interior angles of polygons,...

This is a mid-module assessment for the 16th lesson in 29 geometry lessons. Individuals demonstrate their understanding of concepts such as vertical and adjacent angles, constructing geometric figures, and triangle congruence criteria.

In this word problem worksheet, 5th graders review various mathematical terms by selecting the correct letter that answers each question completely. There are a total of 13 math problems to solve which vary between word problems,...

In this geometry puzzle worksheet, students identify and complete a puzzle that includes 7 different geometrical shapes. They identify and name each shape listed at the bottom. Then, students label every shape in the puzzle with the...

In this geometry roots instructional activity, 10th graders solve and complete 22 various types of problems. First, they match the geometry word roots on the left with their meanings found on the right side. Then, students list as many...

In this area learning exercise, students commence solving for area of squares and rectangles, and continue to parallelograms and triangles, and continue again to rhombi and trapezoids and finish with circles, polygons, and...

In this geometry worksheet, students solve the area of 2D shapes starting with squares, rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, rhombi, trapezoids, circles, and ending with area of shaded regions. There are 20 questions.

Students show the correlation between quadrilaterals, parallelograms, rectangles and squares.

Students create identify properties of trapezoids. In this geometry lesson plan, students calculate the area of given trapezoids and review the area formula for parallelograms. They draw a correlation between the area of a trapezoid and...

Young scholars are given patterns of trapezoids and are to calculate the area of one trapezoid by using both patterns. They should form a parallelogram and calculate the area. They practice this technique until there is understanding.

In this area worksheet, students solve for the area of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, trapezoids, kites, regular polygons, circles, and surface area.  The worksheets is divided into seven different sets of problems.

In this tessellations worksheet, 10th graders solve 6 different types of tessellation problems that includes drawing. First, they define polygon, regular polygon, tessellation, regular tessellation, and semi-regular tessellation. Then,...

High schoolers explore the concept of quadrilaterals. In this quadrilaterals lesson, students use the slope formula, midpoint formula, and distance formula to justify that a given quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Seventh graders complete activities to further their understanding of area formulas. In this area lesson, 7th graders watch as the teacher uses Polystrips to model parallelograms. Students find the area of a rectangle and answer...

Sixth graders use different measuring tools to measure area, perimeter, and circumference of different shapes. In this measurement lesson plan, 6th graders measure parallelograms, triangles, and circles.

Students use construction technology to identify and find relationships between the attributes of various quadrilaterals. They make and test conjectures about the distinguishing properties of parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses,...

Sixth graders explore different polygons. In this polygon lesson, 6th graders examine a rhombus, quadrilateral, parallelogram, and rectangles. Students compare and contrast polygons and research shapes on the Internet.
