In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders determine the area of triangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, kites, and rhombuses. The one page worksheet contains eleven problems. Answers are included.

Students build sled kites. in this kite building instructional activity, students must read directions for kite building and enlarge the proportions of the given kite pattern. Students focus on the angles and line of symmetry in their...

High schoolers study the history of kites and their fundamental properties.  For this kites lesson students divide into teams and build and fly kites. 

Students identify the number of diagonals for each polygon. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the polygons based on their diagonals and the way it intersect. They create visuals using the navigator to see the changes in the...

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.

Students build a kite while integrating math and science. In this kite building lesson, students construct a blueprint and apply mathematical formulas while constructing a kite. They use appropriate flight and kite terminology to...

What type of quadrilateral is that? Discover the difference between the types of quadrilaterals. Small groups investigate types of quadrilaterals using geometry software to find their properties. To keep track of the different...

Students calculate the area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson plan, students find the area for trapezoids, rhombuses and kites.

Students read the book The Math Curse by Jon Scieszka and study geometry. In this geometry lesson, students identify geometric shapes and their properties. Students create a geo-critter.

Students use construction technology to identify and find relationships between the attributes of various quadrilaterals. They make and test conjectures about the distinguishing properties of parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses,...

Students use materials from their own environment to design a kite. In this kite design lesson, students research the history of kites and obtain a formal mathematical definition of a kite. Students sketch kite designs after discovering...

Explore the concept of creating and describing 2D and 3D shapes.  Using geometry your scholars will describe the attributes of shapes and their properties.  They explore and discover what happens when you combine shapes and...

Tenth graders experiment with gravity and air pressure. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders build their own kits and fly it. They investigate the questions: what keeps a kite in the air and what are some important factors when flying a...

Students identify symmetry in shapes. For this geometry lesson, students fold paper to identify lines of symmetry. Students create various symmetrical shapes using folded paper.

Learners identify properties of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students label polygons as parallelogram or not. They define and label the properties of a kite.

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.

Students identify different properties of parallelograms. In this geometry lesson, students complete problems that proves the theorems and properties of parallelograms. They graph the different shapes on paper.

Students investigate the properties of quadrilaterals. In this geometry instructional activity, students solve problems dealing with construction and designs. They work with quadrilaterals, midpoints and parallelograms.

Young scholars identify the properties representing quadrilateral. For this geometry lesson, students differentiate between special and regular quadrilaterals. They discuss and demonstrate hierarchy of quadrilaterals.

Learners sketch the shape of three dimensional pyramids using nets. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate a pyramid from other three dimensional shape. They define the attributes of pyramids.

Learners investigate the symmetries of a convex quadrilateral in a collaborative activity. Rigid motion and complements are explored as learners analyze different cases of reflections across a line.

Sort this resource into the Use pile. Scholars investigate attributes of quadrilaterals and then use the results to sort and classify the shapes labeling each figure with their properties to justify the classifications.

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

Students identify diagrams of quadrilaterals and circles by different names and classify the figures. They name the areas for each diagram and practice solving the formulas for each.
