Students create a quilt square for a class quilt using at least three, two-dimensional geometric figures. They research and write a brief description of at least two different quilt patterns that they find. Pupils discuss that quilts are...

An interactive made up of five questions tests scholars' knowledge of equivalent fractions. Two fraction circles with moveable parts assist mathematicians in finding solutions. Questions are multiple-choice with one discussion. 

Five word-problems challenge mathematicians to add fractions. Interactive fraction circles assist scholars in problem-solving. Question types include multiple-choice, true or false, and a discussion.  

In addition to the catchy title, this lesson plan provides upper graders an opportunity to more closely scrutinize the attributes of plane figures. In particular, they focus on the similarity of different shapes. Both whole-class and...

Students scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...

Elementary schoolers examine the attributes of triangles. In this triangle instructional activity, learners compare regular triangles and right triangles. They explore vertices and angles and investigate obtuse and acute angles. Pupils...

Students construct polygons. They identify attributes of three-dimensional shapes. Students name common three-dimensional shapes. They draw three-dimensional shapes, and sort three-dimensional shapes. Students use K'NEX materials sets to...
