Students analyze function graphs.  In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus lesson, students investigate the graph of a function as they determine to which family of functions it belongs, determine the parent function and describe the...

Students discuss ways computers use properties of similar figures to generate scale models and create scenes. they describe patterns they have seen on a fern, pineapple, or pinecone. Students research Benoit mandebrot, H. von Koch and...

Second graders explore shapes. After reading books about shapes, 2nd graders describe the properties of various shapes. They identify shapes if they have been rotated, flipped, or slid. Students create shapes using drawings and geoboards.

Seventh graders create a graph of their Christmas gifts. They develop categories, compute fractional and decimal parts for each category, identify the number of degrees to represent each fractional part, and create a circle graph to...

Learners explore different types of quadrilaterals. Students define the terminology used with quadrilaterals. They create particular quadrilaterals based on specific characteristics of the quadrilaterals using an online tool.

First graders explore geometric shapes. In this math lesson, 1st graders sort shapes into groups and discuss the characteristics of the shapes. Students build geometric shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows.

Students, in groups, construct different angles and shapes on a large scale using string and chalk.

Second graders be having hands-on experiences with three-dimensional solid shapes. They investigate the features of solid shapes and examine the names for them. They are introduced to making nets for 3D shapes.

Students use interactive geometry exploration software (GES) to create a two-point perspective drawing. They explore basic geometry concepts in and geometric transformations of the model of a rectangular prism viewed from different...

Students investigate basic geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson, students explore solids through measuring and modeling. This assignment models the importance of understanding concrete objects in geometry.      

Students make and fly a sled kite out of plastic garbage bags, dowel rods, and more. In this kite lesson plan, students plan the kite to have symmetry and make adjustments as they test it.

Learners discover how engineers determine the best designs for bridge construction. They see how bridge constructions relates Engineering to Geometry. They see the implications and consequences of bridge design on your community/world.

Students differentiate between different planes. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between a plane and a sphere. They discuss the Great Circle, Geodesic and Lune as it relates to the earth.

Students practice basic coordinate graphing and plotting points on the coordinate axis. In this geometry instructional activity, students are introduced to ordered pairs, and the x and y axis.

Sixth graders explore different polygons. In this polygon lesson, 6th graders examine a rhombus, quadrilateral, parallelogram, and rectangles. Students compare and contrast polygons and research shapes on the Internet.

Fourth graders explore how to find the area of a rectangular object. As a class, they discuss definition of area and strategies for finding area. The teacher models finding the area of an object by counting squares. Students observe...

Sixth grade students: design a stained glass window, submitting their initial plan detailing the measurements of all lines and angles. Seventh grade students: create a scale drawing of their own geometric family of four members.

Students examine how he world eats breakfast. In this food choices lesson, students work in groups to list breakfast foods and their ingredients and find goods and consumers on the list. The, students use the Internet to complete a...

Young scholars make bread and understand that bread gives us energy. In this bread lesson plan, students read the story A Trip to the Market, and learn about the importance of bread. Then they make the bread!

Pupils define a plane and a solid shape. In this geometry activity, students compare and contrast different geometric shapes as they relate to solids. They name the geometric solids based on their sides and edges.

Learners construct polygons. They identify attributes of three-dimensional shapes. Students name common three-dimensional shapes. They draw three-dimensional shapes, and sort three-dimensional shapes. Learners use K'NEX materials sets to...

Students investigate the concepts related to the practice of designing and building large scale buildings. They conduct research using the internet and other resources in order to apply mathematics and architectural design principals in...

Students apply their enthusiasm for imaginary play to create their own imaginary play space. In this novice architectural design instructional activity, students arrange and glue pre-cut foam shapes to a cardboard base to set up their...

Young scholars investigate measurement through the use of literature through this series of lessons.
