Study geometry through the concept of quilt design. High schoolers examine the geometric shapes in various quilts and then create their own quilts using geometric shapes that fit together. In the end, they write a paragraph to...

In this triangle worksheet, young scholars explore the characteristics of triangles. They find the area of a pentagon, lengths of the sides of a triangle and the area of a quadrilateral. This two-page worksheet contains seven problems.

Young mathematicians rotate, flip, and sort their way to an understanding of the different attributes of geometric figures. Using transparent yellow and blue shapes, children try to match congruent figures together...

Have scholars show what they know with a 20-page assessment aligned to the California State Standards. The test covers concepts such as large and whole numbers, all four mathematical operations, fractions, decimals, geometric figures,...

How do you prepare class members for the analytical thinking they will need in the real world? An assessment requires the higher order thinking they need to be successful. The module focuses on the concept of rigid transformations...

Prove the Law of Sines two ways. The ninth segment in a series of 16 introduces the Law of Sines to help the class find lengths of sides in oblique triangles. Pupils develop a proof of the Law of Sines by drawing an altitude and a second...

Students stud angles, and then play the "What's Your Angle?" game. They complete at least 10 computer generated problems from the Angles Applet.

In this triangle congruence activity, students use SSS, ASA, AAS and HL to determine the congruence of triangles.  They identify the theorem that proves congruence.  This three-page activity contains 4 multi-step...

In this congruent figures instructional activity, students answer ten true or false questions. A sample question reads: "Two triangles are congruent when their shape and size will be the same."

In this congruent and similar figures learning exercise, students review three steps to help them determine if figures are congruent, similar, or neither. Students then study the pairs of shapes and determine if they are congruent,...

In this congruent shapes worksheet, students analyze a group of 20 geometric shapes that have letter labels. Students find pairs of shapes that are congruent in this group and write the letters of the shapes that match.

In this measuring angles worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 8 various types of problems. First, they use a protractor to find the measure of each angle shown. Then, students find the missing angle measures. They also refer to the...

In this congruent triangles worksheet, 10th graders solve 10 different problems related to exploring various types of congruent triangles. First, they label the corresponding parts and use the figures to complete each statement. Then,...

High schoolers are introduced to the topic of congruence and proportions in Geometry. Using technology, they construct and validate the properties of various geometric figures and identify whether it is congruent or proportion to the...

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.      

Student sinvestigate the area and perimeter of polygons. They differentiate between similar and congruent polygons.. They identify the ratio and proportions of the sides and angles of polygons.

In this angle worksheet, students find the value for a given variable. They use similar figures, alternate interior angles, side angle side, and other geometric theorems and proofs to determine the value of the given variable. This...

In this math worksheet, students analyze an informative chart about the measurement and angles of equilateral, isosceles and scalene triangles. Students then answer 5 questions about classifying triangles.

Fifth graders investigate the symmetry of pattern block shapes. Students, working in groups determine whether each shape has line symmetry, rotational symmetry or both kinds of symmetry. Students determine how many lines of symmetry the...

Junior geometers discover that polygons can be decomposed into triangles and that the number of triangles can be determined by a rule. Note that the Geometer’s Sketchpad® software is required to carry out all components of this...

Fourth and fifth graders work in pairs  explore quadrilaterals. In this problem-solving instructional activity, learners participate in hands-on activities that require them to identify, describe, compare, and classify...

Facilitate creativity in your math class as individuals learn the definition of a geometric reflection and correctly construct a model, as well as its reflected image. They use a perpendicular bisector and circles to elaborate on...

Twelve chapters cover a multitude of math concepts found in the Common Core standards for sixth grade. Each title provides a brief explanation of what you will find inside the chapter—concepts from which you can click on and learn more...

Students look at the geometry in an artwork. In this art history/geometry lesson, students research the artist Charles Sheeler and look at his painting Stacks in Celebration. They find the different types of lines, angles, and...
