Students study rectangles. In this math lesson, students use numbers, measurements and geometry to draw rectangles of varying sizes.

Young scholars investigate the concept of finding the areas under curves while examining the graphing for inscribed and circumscribed rectangles. Finally, students compute the area under the curve by using the left-hand endpoints. The...

Shapes are everywhere in the world around us, from rectangular doors to the circular wheels of a car. The second lesson in this series opens the eyes of young mathematicians to this wonderful world of shapes as they search the classroom,...

Give the ultimate gift this holiday season: Christmas-themed math skills! Young gift givers calculate the amount of wrapping paper that should be used for a particular wrapping method.

Building a doghouse is easier with a little mathematical help! Young scholars use sliders to adjust the length of the doghouse and watch as it affects the width and area. They then answer questions that help them discover the question...

For these calculating and converting fractions and percentages worksheets, learners add and subtract fractions, solve word problems, and convert fractions to percentages and percentages to fractions. They solve 85 problems.

Let's use math to solve an argument. Jon and Charlie are debating about who can run farther, but who is right? That's what your class will figure out as they apply their understanding of fractions to this real-life situation. A simple,...

Eight graphic organizers to choose from? That's right! Each of these organizers relates to writing or reading. From narrowing a writing topic, to responding to literature, to planning a writing project, you'll find many purposes for...

Let's partition rectangles into equal parts. Assess learners on their ability to divide shapes into equal parts, and their ability to explain their thinking.

Students investigate the concept of perimeter. They design there own figure and measure the perimeter of it. The lesson plan is given the context of the shape being a path that is traveled by a ladybug. This provides the shape of the...

In this maximum and minimum points worksheet, students solve and complete 12 various types of problems. First, they find the area of the smallest triangle given the point of intersection. Then, students find the volume of a box that has...

In this math instructional activity, students work play a game that uses area and perimeter as the main concept. Then students complete the question for area and perimeter.

Students apply the formulas for the area of parallelograms and triangles. Through guided practice, students discover the correct way to apply the formulas. Working in pairs, they write their own problems featuring the formulas.

Eighth graders discover how the change in the dimensions of a shape cause a change in the overall area of the shape, but the perimeter stay the same. They, in groups, go out to the playground and construct large areas using stakes and rope.

Sixth graders apply problem solving strategies to work with a real life situation in which they need to determine the area. They determine the area of chicken runs that are rectangular in shape when give a partial perimeter.

Fourth graders find the perimeter of a geometric shape by adding the lengths of the sides. They find the area of a square or rectangle by counting square units. Students use multiplication to find the area of a rectangle. They estimate...

Students calculate the area of triangles using a variety of materials including computer applets.

In this geometric figures worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 18 different types of problems that include various figures. First, they find the area of the figures shown if consecutive sides are perpendicular. Then, students find...

For this geometry worksheet, students answer questions about triangles and trapezoids as it related to the area of a shape. They make their own polygons and calculate the area.

In this math worksheet, students use Euler's Method to solve differential equations. They are given an equation to graph (y'). Students sketch that equation as well as the related equation (y). They find the area of given rectangles and...

In this maximizing volume worksheet, high schoolers solve 4 short answer problems. Students find the maximum area of a rectangle, volume of a box, and height of an object. High schoolers determine the time at which the object in motion...
