Students calculate the are of regular polygons. In this geometry instructional activity, students create polygons on the computer and move it around to create different shapes. They explore the area of different polygons and how they...

In this interactive lesson, learners review attributes of equilateral polygons. They are introduced to the concept of a tessellation. Using protractors and pre-cut shapes, students arrange a variety of tiles to create tessellations. They...

Sixth graders investigate tessellations and their origins. Students trace triangles to form a tessellation. They measure the angle of equilateral triangles. Students locate the line of symmetry, they create geometric squares,...

There are many different ways to show a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem.  Here is a nice hands-on paper cutting activity that shows a graphic representation. You can even challenge your young Pythagoreans to come up with their own...

Seventh graders investigate geometric shapes using tessellations. For this geometry lesson, 7th graders practice tessellations using different shapes. They create different designs using tessellations.
