Curated OER
Stained Glass Polygons
Students follow directions to make a stained glass window design of regular and irregular polygons with specific geometric elements. In this geometry lesson plan, students also analyze other classmate's designs.
Curated OER
Polygon People
Students identify polygons. In this polygon people lesson, students draw required shapes and construct a polygon person. They identify each shape and its characteristics. The lesson may be extended by allowing students...
Curated OER
Chinese Tangrams
Students research the history of Chinese tangrams and complete tangram activities. In this tangram lesson, students complete Internet research to learn the history of Chinese tangrams. Students construct a set of tangrams, compare the...

Polygons, Pingos, and Themokarst! Oh MY!
Students complete activities to learn about the common land features in Alaska. In this land study lesson, students study an overhead for permafrost features. Students define ice wedge polygons, thermokarst, and pingos. Students also...
Curated OER
Pop-it...Stop-it
Students observe how certain geometric shapes can be used to make some structures rigid and others flexible. The activity involves construction of a 30-60 right triangle, folding while following directions, and identifying polygons.
Curated OER
Creature Design
Fifth graders create mathematical creatures. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders create a creature from regular and irregular geometric shapes. Students review vocabulary and construct an original creature based on a rubric.
Curated OER
Tessellations
Students learn and review basic geometric terms, definitions, and theory, including regular polygons, lines, angles, points, etc. They make a tessellating stamp and create a repeating work of art.
Curated OER
Sphere Dressing
Geometric design makes a fashion statement! Challenge learners to design a hat to fit a Styrofoam model. Specifications are clear and pupils use concepts related to three-dimensional objects including volume of irregular shapes and...
Curated OER
The Value of Volume
Students measure the perimeter and area of their polygons. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the volume and area using the correct tools. They calculate the time and temperature and the perimeter and side lengths of triangles.
Curated OER
Tessellations
Students create tessellations. In this geometry lesson, students use polygons to create different patterns by rotation. They identify the reasons for polygons to create the type of tessellation it does.
Curated OER
Surface Area with Polydrons
Students explore measurements by analyzing geometric shapes. In this surface area lesson, students identify the terms volume, weight, perimeter and area in order to find the requested measurements of specific polygons. Students utilize...
Curated OER
Squares to Compare
Young scholars investigate how to draw and classify two and three dimensional figures (squares, triangles, rectangles.)
Curated OER
Geometry and Tony Smith Sculpture
Students respond to Tony Smith's sculpture as art and brainstorm about math concepts inherent in his work. They create a sculpture with polyhedra nets, calculate the cost of covering sculpture in gold, and write an exhibit label for...
Curated OER
Math: A Geometric Neighborhood
Students, as a final project, draw a picture of their ideal neighborhood on a sunny day. In addition to the sun, their drawings include homes, trees, streets, and selected objects. Each object in their drawing has a written description...
