A series of geometry worksheets have mathematicians constructing, dissecting, overlapping, and measuring as they analyze angles in various contexts. Learners use symmetry and reflections in a compass rose to write instructions on...

Just like a painting or the symbols on a flag, quilts can express ideas that reflect a cultural context, space, and time. The class discusses the history of quilt making throughout US history and what different types of quilts mean. They...

Solve equations and graph systems of inequalities. Designed as a lesson to reinforce these concepts, learners revisit shading and boundaries along with solving linear inequalities.

Fresh off the press, these math newsletters will challenge the problem solving skills of your young mathematicians. With an incredibly wide variety of questions covering the topics of arithmetic and geometry, these unique...

Ninth graders design a safe passage through a 2-D obstacle. In this geometric math lesson, 9th graders engage in a hands on activity to better understand the concept of geometric and algebraic perpendicularity. Students will work in...

Students create a bridge using engineering and geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the missing measures of polygons sides and angles. They work together to solve real life situation using problem...

Students identify the parts of an engine using a graph. In this statistics lesson, students make a graph from their collected data. They calculate the volume of a cylinder using a line of regression and a scatter plot.

Students define and identify shapes by name. In this geometry lesson, students construct, identify and compare polygons based on the number of sides. They classify each shape based on their angle sum theorem.

Students explore the architecture of New England by identifying geometric shapes.  In this architectural lesson, students examine photographs of classic building architecture and use a transparency to trace geometric shapes they...

Students investigate geometric shapes in their environment, make a geometric design, and write paragraphs describing the design.

Students create Post-It note fundamental regions to tesselate. They make tesselations using computer software or websites. They create a jacket design with tesselation and determine the cost of production.

Introduce your classes to a new world of mathematics. Pupils learn to call trigonometric ratios by their given names: sine, cosine, and tangent. They find ratios and use known ratios to discover missing sides of similar...

Need a helping hand in Algebra I? How about a giant, super-sized worksheet packet? Here is a resource that has worksheets for virtually every concept with some accompanying examples. 

Students walk around the neighborhood and identify various polygons and lines in buildings, nature and other objects. They design a building using various geometric patterns, shapes and lines. Students complete a descriptive writing of...

First graders, exploring lines of symmetry, follow directions to create a symmetrical snowflake from their own homemade icing. As a class, they discuss lines of symmetry and determine if specific shapes are symmetrical. After the lesson,...

Young artists divide a piece of graph paper into sections using rectangles, squares, and triangles. They then fill each section with patterns of shape and color. Elementary graders describe how their patterns are organized. Secondary...

Students view a video to discover how patterns in nature relate to math. They explore the concept of exponential growth by observing and creating fractals. They solve and design word problems.

Explore the world of shapes! After free tangram exploration and pair share time, learners describe various patterns and shapes in both the natural and designed world. They investigate the use of tangrams to create patterns and shapes.

Students investigate track and field dimensions, measure an actual track, and construct a scale model. The use of a meter stick, dimensional analysis, and the application of the distributive property to variables forms the main focus of...
