Plane Figures
Fifth graders create polygons requested by their teacher. In this polygons lesson, 5th graders watch a video and listen to a song about polygons. Then, students take turns labeling various polygons and practice making polygons.
Curated OER
What are the Kinds of Triangles?
Fifth graders classify triangles. In this triangle lesson, 5th graders learn about the characteristics that make up a triangle. They are instructed through video, PowerPoint slides, and teacher-led demonstrations.
Curated OER
Coordinate Plane
Tenth graders plot points on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders identify the different quadrants, plots points on a number line and coordinate plane and solve for the midpoint of line segments.

Buying a Home
What is the difference between buying and renting a home? Learners become more informed consumers and financially literate adults after developing foundational knowledge of the home-buying process.
Curated OER
Equations, Expressions, Factorization
Students graph and solve equations and expressions. For this algebra lesson, students use simple factorization to simplify expressions. They review for an exam by doing basic algebra.
Curated OER
Use Symbols to Subtract
Students practice crossing out items in a group in order to complete subtraction problems. In this subtraction lesson plan, students watch a PowerPoint presentation and then practice problems on their own.
Curated OER
Conditional Statements
Learners are introduced to the topic of proofs in Geometry. During a PowerPoint presentation, they take notes on indirect proofs and have groups of students write a true statement. They are assessed on the statement and how well they...
