For this math worksheet, students design a room by picking a room from home. They measure it and then create a three dimensional model.

Students examine the metric system and practice reading several different measuring devices.  For this investigative lesson students participate in an activity that helps them know the metric system. 

Learners participate in an activity where they build a calibrated thermometer.  In this thermometer lesson students complete this activity and take notes. 

Fifth graders explore angles by using protractors. They recognize, describe and determine the surface area and volume of three-dimensional shapes. Students recognize the right angle, acute angle, obtuse angle and vertex. They identify...

In this math worksheet, students work at home with a family member to identify triangles and find the areas. Students find 3 triangles in tile patterns, wallpaper, paintings or anywhere in the home and answer 6 questions.

Students examine a math worksheet and determine how to divide a single triangle into four of equal area. Using geometric principles, they sketch two additional ways to divide into into four equal triangles. To conclude, students...

Test your scholars' knowledge of a multitude of concepts with an assessment aligned to the California math standards. Using the exam, class members show what they know about the four operations, positive and negative numbers, statistics...

This lesson starts with geometers discussing how to find the volume of a cone and pyramid, using what they know about the volume of a cylinder or prism. Then, using the formulas, they calculate the volume of cones and...

Students investigate one, two and three dimensional objects. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between different shapes of objects and write equations to represent each. They start with what they already know and prove...

Young scholars measure various attributes of an orange. They discuss the attributes of an orange that can be measured, develop a list of attributes and describe how they can measure it, and rotate through four stations measuring the...

Students create packages with a maximum capacity. For this geometry lesson ,students estimate using whole numbers, decimals and fractions. They calculate length, weight and mass of packaging.

Pairs of geometry whizzes work together to determine which of three differently shaped cylinders will have the greatest volume. Pupils cut out the three rectangles embedded in the plan, and tape them together to form a cylinder. From...

High schoolers discuss and identify polygons and lines. In this geometry lesson, learners review liner, square and cubic units so they can incorporate it into the lesson on measurement and creating packing that are cost effective.

Show high schoolers there is more to quadratic functions than just formulas and parabolas. Connect the math to realistic application problems with a resource that has learners consider such situations as a ball hit in the air, the...

Provide your class some practice with the dimensions of geometric figures. Here you have a set of three different-shaped, stemmed drinking glasses with diameters and heights provided. Math-minded individuals calculate the volume of each....

Young scholars calculate the length, width, height, perimeter, area, volume, surface area, angle measures or sums of angle measures of common geometric figures. They create an equation of a line of best fit from a set of ordered...

Watch the damage from a forest fire in this interactive simulation activity that challenges learners to estimate the burn area using different approaches. Learners are given a worksheet to track the different burn patterns and practice...

Seven activities make up a collection of supplemental materials to reinforce graphing on a coordinate plane. Worksheet objectives include plotting coordinates within single and four quadrants, measuring straight and...

Get creative juices flowing when you allow groups to figure out a procedure for how to find the area of squares and rectangles. They may use the individual patchwork blocks, or they may design one using the Design Template.

Scholars create and perform experiments attempting to answer Buffon's Coin problem. They discover the relationships between geometry and probability, empirical and theoretical probabilities, and area of a circle and square.

Students explore the basic geometric shapes and geometric shape vocabulary through the use of geoboards and virtual geoboards. They create a variety of shapes with a partner, build ten different rectangles on their geoboards, and...

Here is a problem-solving lesson that has learners take the role of a packaging expert to design an inexpensive means of packaging a potato chip. It could benefit from having more specific detail about the lesson itself, but it does make...

Pupils compute the area of triangles in a computer program. For this measurement lesson plan, students complete 5 easy, 5 medium, and 5 hard problems.

In this science measurement learning exercise, students practice calculating volume, density, and area as it relates to science experiments. This learning exercise has 4 multiple choice and 2 problems to solve.
