In this line and angles worksheet, students explore basic geometry vocabulary.  They classify polygons.  Students determine the area and perimeter of given shapes.  They examine the parts of a circle, find volume and...

Eleventh graders sort different types of functions including rational, periodic, exponential, polynomial, quadratic, logarithmic and linear using "function cards." The functions are displayed in multiple representations including...

Students examine the topics of conflict, resolution, and solution using the book "Stone Soup." They create a class pictograph using real vegetables brought in by the students, answer story comprehension questions, and sequence the events...

Tenth graders conduct various activities utilizing the scientific method to formulate a hypothesis, conduct a controlled experiment, collect and analyze the data and communicate their results through a poster. They also identify...

Young learners listen to a read aloud of Gail Gibbons book, Apples and the story A Red House With No Windows and No Doors. They compare characteristics of a number of kinds of apples, graph them and create a apple print picture. Learners...

Entice your learners with this lesson on animal footprints. After reading the story Footprints in the Snow by Cynthia Benjamin, they use photos to identify animals and their footprints. Then they participate in an activity to classify...

Fifth graders create polygons requested by their teacher. For this polygons lesson, 5th graders watch a video and listen to a song about polygons. Then, students take turns labeling various polygons and practice making polygons.

Fifth graders work with polygons.

Fifth graders investigate mathematical concepts related to the construction of a three dimensional cube. They construct the cube from two dimensional patterns and compute the surface area. Students also define the faces, edges, and...

Fifth graders view prints of M.C. Escher's work. They look at examples of geometric figures and polygons and discuss places they have seen them. Students create their own tessellations. They write a report about the process they used in...

Students complete activities to learn about the common land features in Alaska. For this land study lesson, students study an overhead for permafrost features. Students define ice wedge polygons, thermokarst, and pingos. Students also...

Sixth graders inspect prime and composite numbers. Using graph paper, they draw as many different shaped rectangles as possible. They use the dimensions of the rectangles to discuss prime and composite numbers. Students create a chart...

Middle schoolers identify objects that are the same shape and size. They compare and contrast attributes of two-and three-dimensional objects using appropriate vocabulary. Pupils justify an extension of a geometric pattern to explain...

Sixth graders explore characteristics of two and three-dimensional figures. They observe the teacher demonstrate the faces, edges, vertices and names of specific figures. In groups, 6th graders examine and describe given figures. ...

In this analytic geometry worksheet, 9th graders graph and solve 13 different types of problems that include determining whether equations are linear to matching given equations to their corresponding equation in the second column....

Tenth graders study graphing exponential functions. In this transformations instructional activity, 10th graders apply inquiry to determine how changes to a parent function affect its graph. Students analyze transformed graphs and...

Students work collaboratively to design and construct a roof out of Legos for a house that was built in a previous lesson plan. The roof must be structurally sound and pass certain criteria determined by the teacher.

Fourth graders explore geometric properties and relationships in a two-dimensional work of art. They first search for and identify polygons in a Cubist painting and then use polygons to create their own Cubist portrait of a classmate.

Pattern recognition is a skill often used in mathematics. Learners count and sort manipulatives, organize the data into a graph and answer questions about the information displayed. They collect the objects to be used and create patterns...
