Making Tangram Pieces by Folding Paper
Third graders follow directions to make a set of tangram pieces. After reading a story, they compare and contrast the differences between two-dimensional shapes. To end the lesson plan, they use the tangram pieces to create their own...

Slope Right Up
Middle schoolers use triangles to find the length and slope of each side. After connecting the vertices, they add points based on their specific instructions. They use the Pythagorean Theorem to complete a worksheet to end the lesson.

Triangle Attributes and Measures
Seventh graders explore the concept of triangles. In this triangles lesson plan, 7th graders sort triangles according to various attributes such as acute, obtuse, isosceles, or equilateral. Students find the area and perimeter of triangles.
Curated OER
Isosceles Triangles
Students identify the properties of an isosceles triangle. In this geometry lesson, students find the midpoint, median and angle bisector of a triangle. They construct angle bisectors and measure missing angles.
