From polyhedrons to platonic solids, here is a lesson that will have your classes talking! As an introduction to platonic solids, scholars cut and fold nets to create the three-dimensional solids. They use an interactive component to...

How do you get a theorem named after you? Euler knows what it takes! The third lesson of five asks pupils to use an interactive activity to compare the faces, vertices, and edges of seven different three-dimensional solids. They use...

So many shapes in our vast oceans. Young explorers can discover new shapes in a variety of ways in this lesson. One way is having free exploration with a pattern shape kit handed out by the teacher. Another is by viewing a...

Compare geometric solids based on their properties. Your emergent geometers use spaghetti and marshmallows to build models so they can examine the number of faces, edges, and vertices on polyhedra of their own creation. Resource includes...

Students participate in a series of hand-on, online, and multimedia activities to examine 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes. They describe common geometric solids. They construct rectangular prisms using straws and ribbon.

Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...

This hands-on lesson takes young geometers on a tour of 2D polygons and 3D polyhedrons. After exploring different web resources and discussing geometric shapes, small groups construct models of polyhedrons using bendable straws. Note:...

Tenth graders define the formula for cylinders and use it to solve real world problems. In this geometry lesson, pupils differentiate between area, perimeters, 2D shapes, 3D shapes, and volume of prisms, cylinders and spheres. They...

Students create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.

Tenth graders predict the shape of a geometric figure in 3D. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders construct 3D shapes to perfect their knowledge of measuring and predicting. This assignment is also available as an online interactive...

Young scholars predict the shape of a geometric figure in 3D. In this geometry lesson plan, students construct 3D shapes to perfect their knowledge of measuring and predicting. This assignment is also available as an online interactive...

Seventh graders investigate the area and volume of 2D and 3D figures. In this geometry lesson, 7th graders create a storyboard explaining their knowledge of 2D and 3D shapes. They analyze their data and interpret their...

Students investigate nets as they relate to volume and area. In this geometry lesson, students use nets as a visual to deepen their understanding of surface area and volume of objects. They make conjectures about different objects and...

Tenth graders plot points on a coordinate plane. In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders identify the different quadrants, plots points on a number line and coordinate plane and solve for the midpoint of line segments.

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 calculate the surface area and volume of a sphere. For this geometry lesson, students define nets, surface areas and volume of prisms, pyramids, cylinders and cones. They use the computer to create nets and analyze shapes.

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

Students estimate and measure exact. In this geometry lesson, students create different object in three-dimensional pattern. They use SketchUp to create their shape and perform measurements on their shapes.

Pupils build different shapes using sketches. In this geometry lesson, students explore measurements and units as they build and create models of buildings. They use SketchUp to create and manipulate shapes.

When it comes to rating educational calculators, this calculator is always near the top of this list. Now it's available as an app. There is a lot of calculator power wrapped up in this app. Not only is this a fully functioning...

We landed on the moon with less computing capabilities than you can find in this app! Here is a multiple function calculator that takes all the power you get from a handheld and adds the wonderful large screen that only a tablet can...

Students construct a bridge that can hold 100 pennies. In this math lesson, students evaluate the strength of their bridges. They predict how much weight a bridge can hold based on its design.
