Go to Sleep, Gecko
Use this multidisciplinary lesson to delve into these subjects: English language arts, math, science, drama, and character education. After reading, discussing, and making interpretations about Go To Sleep, Gecko!: A Balinese Folktale by...
Sea World
Splash of Math
How can kids use math to learn about marine life? Combine math skills with science lessons in a resource featuring activities about life in the sea. Kids graph and calculate data, solve complex word problems, measure geometric shapes,...
Curated OER
3-D Cubes
Pupils investigate cubes. In this geometric solids lesson, students review geometric concepts previously taught, then logon to a computer game in which they find cube figures and identify the shadow of hidden cubes.
Curated OER
How Big is a Dinosaur?
Fourth graders create enlarged replica of a stegosaurus drawing, using a grid to practice coordinates.
Curated OER
Obtuse Triangles
Fourth graders explore obtuse triangles. In this geometry lesson, 4th graders make obtuse triangles with paper and scissors. They determine how to find the center of their triangle.
Curated OER
Money Booklet
Students practice handling money by examining different world currency. In this economics lesson, students utilize a coin booklet to trace individual coins and draw bills, later coloring them in their traditional colors. Students are...
Curated OER
Match My Masterpiece
Fifth graders plot out points on grid paper which correspond with the ordered pairs they are given. If done correctly, the points form a word.
Curated OER
Isosceles Triangles
Students investigate triangles. In this shapes geometry lesson, students define and state the attributes for equilateral, scalene, and isosceles triangles. Students locate the prefix "tri" in a variety of words and make connections with...
Curated OER
Angle Action 1,2 and 3
Students investigate angles through construction. In this geometry lesson, students use a protractor to identify the measurement of an angle. They identify angles cut by a transversal and two parallel lines.
Curated OER
Angle-Side Relationships
Students calculate the different sides and angles of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, students use triangular properties to define the relationship between two triangle. They identify missing angles using the interior angle theorem.
Curated OER
Similar Triangles - Applied Problems
Students differentiate between similar and congruent triangles. In this geometry lesson, students identify the angles of triangles using the similarity theorem. They apply concepts of triangles to the real world.
Curated OER
Sketching Prisms
Students sketch and create nets of different polygons.In this geometry lesson, students differentiate prisms from other three-dimensional shapes. They define the properties of prisms.
Curated OER
Quadrilateral Characteristics
Fourth graders explain the characteristics of quadrilaterals and describe, identify and analyze characteristics and properties of geometric shapes.
Curated OER
Area And Perimeter Powerpoint
Students engage in a study using technology in order to attempt the comprehension of using perimeter and area. They use powerpoint to solve different problems. This helps to keep learners engaged in the process of practice and...
Curated OER
Transformations-Shapes on the Move
Students examine transformations. In this math lesson, students view and describe flips, slides, and turns. Students practice making transformations with shapes.
Curated OER
Distance Formula
Students calculate the distance formula. In this geometry lesson, students find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane. They identify the four different quadrants.
Curated OER
Chambered Nautilus
Students create sets of similar triangles which, when fixed together with a piece of Scotch tape, form a spiral-like, segmented shape, slightly similar to the cross section of the shell of a nautilus.
Curated OER
Angle Action
Students measure and label specified angles. In this angles lesson plan, students use a protractor to find angles that are acute, obtuse, and reflexive. Students then label each angle and match the angles the correct definition. This...
Curated OER
Polygons Defined
Fourth graders explore polygons. In this polygon lesson, 4th graders sort polygons according to their properties. Students discover the connection between polygons and the Greek language.
