Students explore the concept of graphing figures from equations. In this graphing lesson, students use Microsoft Math to graph figures from equations and write equations from graphed figures.

Eighth graders complete a unit of lessons on basic geometry concepts. They participate in a variety of activities, culminating in a project that involves publishing a booklet or a poster that presents the major geometry concepts from the...

Students examine the relationship between probability and geometry to solve problems. In this geometry and probability lesson plan, students investigate the effect of changing percentages on a spinner to the probability of landing on a...

Students study relationships between angles, side lengths, perimeters, areas and volumes of similar objects. In this lesson students also create and critique inductive and deductive arguments concerning congruency, similarity and the...

High schoolers engage in a lesson that focuses on analytic geometry. The lesson asked them to apply skills of relating equations when plotting them on the coordinate plane. Students construct the equations using specific criteria and...

Young scholars build and apply concepts of geometry. In this geometry lesson, students create a building using proportions and scale drawings. They use Cabri technology to create a virtual drawing first.

Third graders participate in a game in order to review geometric concepts.

Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students explore the concept of tessellations and lines, planes, angles, and polygons. Students experiment with the area and perimeter of polygons. Students analyze...

Youngsters explore visual arts by participating in a geometry identification activity. They read the book The Very Busy Spider and identify the techniques spiders use to create webs. Have you ever noticed that their webs are geometric...

Young mathematicians identify shapes and their correct names. They work with partners using various manipulatives and computer software to reinforce the concept. I really like these lesson plans. They are well-designed, the procedures...

Middle schoolers create two prisms out of the same paper. They calcuate the number of centimeter cubes needed to fill each prism. They discover the concept of volume.

Students identify patterns found in nature. In this algebra lesson, students model situation in nature using fractals. They investigate biological geometric structures and draw conclusion based on geometric concepts.

Students prepare to take the GED by reviewing basic math concepts. In this geometry lesson plan, students review vocabularies such as formula, perimeter, circumference and other important geometric terms. They convert between the English...

Fourth graders use pattern blocks to explore areas of polygons. They explain that the answers to the area of the same polygon vary according to the units of measurement used. They visualize how different units of measurement can be used...

Students explore the concept of concurrent lines in triangles. In this concurrent lines in triangles lesson, students work in groups to investigate properties of concurrent lines in acute, right, and obtuse triangles. Students use a...

Eighth graders become engaged in a lesson plan in geometry to improve mathematical skills. They construct triangles, segments, and points using Geometer's Sketchpad to demonstrate how dilations of triangles and rectangles change...

Fourth graders are asked to name different shapes.Four to five students to share their answers with the class. The teacher leads the discussion in geometry about the properties associated with shapes.

Develop a more precise definition of similar. The lesson begins with an informal definition of similar figures and develops the need to be more precise. The class learns about dilations and uses that knowledge to arrive at a...

Learners create books about shapes.  In this shape lesson, students select a topic such as points, lines, angles, planes, polygons, quadrilaterals, triangles, circles, and polyhedra.  In groups, they create an illustrated...

Students explore colors and shapes. In this art concepts lesson plan, students discuss shapes, lines, and color while creating a variety of abstract designs. The instructions for several art activities are provided. Basic art vocabulary...

Sixth graders participate in a lesson plan that is about investigating the different layers of the earth and defining how the plates move over the mantle. They engage in a variety of activities and use mathematics to create projects to...

Students explore the concept of Pascal's Triangle. In this Pascal's Triangle lesson, students use an applet called 'Coloring Multiples' to explore Pascal's Triangle. Students develop patterns starting with various numbers in Pascal's...

Students define accuracy and precision, and differentiate between the two terms, apply the concepts of accuracy and precision to a given situation and correctly apply the concept of significant figures to measurement and mathematical...

Using a pre-test, this lesson starts by establishing differentiated learning groups. Each group practices determining area and perimeter using interactive web sites small groups are then pulled aside and given additional support as...
