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 examine fractional parts of pie graphs. Given a bag of M&Ms, 5th graders interpret the data. They use a paper plate and colors to create a graph of the types of M&Ms represented.

Fifth graders work with polygons.

Pupils study geometric shapes, lines, and the primary colors as they create Mondrian-like art prints.

Ninth graders explain how wind can produce electricity. In this geometry lesson, 9th graders construct their own pin wheel turbine and calculate its power. They discuss the pros and cons of using wind generator.

Students explore the making of circles and concepts related to them in geometry. The project is inquiry based will focus upon students making their own nametags. The construction is ideal for hands on students.

Students identify geometrical shapes displayed in photographs of everyday objects in a metropolitan setting.

Seventh graders investigate the area and volume of 2D and 3D figures. In this geometry lesson, 7th graders create a storyboard explaining their knowledge of 2D and 3D shapes. They analyze their data and interpret their...

Young scholars use non-standard measurement tools such as body parts, beans and counters to find the area of shapes drawn on the floor. They continue to determine the area of other objects in the classroom.

Tenth graders discuss sides of a shape and how to collect data correctly. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders examine shapes and count the surfaces on the shape. They read the history of Mobius Band and relate it to surface area.

First graders draw and describe various types of polygons. they investigate their own environments for examples of polygons. After reading the book, The Greedy Triangle, they discuss everyday objects that are polygons. They create shape...

Learners go through various construction techniques needed to bisect angles, lines and arcs, construct a perpendicular from a vertex to a line, construct the center of a circle, transfer an angle, and various other constructions normally...

What properties does area possess? Solidify the area properties that pupils learned in previous years. Groups investigate the five properties using four problems, which then provide the basis for a class discussion.

Fifth graders use tan to solve problems involving right-angled triangles. They solve equations of the form tan(8) =a, for a between 180 degrees and 360 degrees. They state the value of tan (8) in special cases.

Define and review math vocabulary. Use the CEENBoT to draw pictures that represent each vocabulary word. Pupils work in groups to play math pictionary.

Learners explore volume and surface area. In this math lesson plan, students fill boxes with cubes to identify the volume of the boxes. Learners discuss area.

In this 2D figure learning exercise, students pick which figure they are given. Students choose from 4 figures in each of the 4 problems they are asked.

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

The objective of this activity is to find the percent of the area of a two squares overlapping. Mathematicians find the ratio of area for the part that overlaps to the rectangle formed. The final answer is a percent as a rate per 100....

The roots metro/meter and therm are the focus of a vocabulary building presentation that includes concise definitions, color-coded examples, and opportunities for guided and independent practice. Part of a series of roots and affixes...

If you need a straightforward and comprehensive organic chemistry exam, check this one out. Chemistry pupils identify functional groups in molecule diagrams, draw a Lewis structure, fill in a table about molecular shape, predict boiling...

Young mathematicians explore the concept of triangles as they construct altitudes of triangles to find the orthocenter. Learners construct their triangles using Cabri Jr. on their graphing calculators and find that the altitudes of a...

Students create squares of different sizes on a geoboard. They find and describe a pattern. Students use the pattern to determine the number of squares possible on a 10-by-10 geoboard. They create squares with a horizontal base (and...

Students explore the mathematical properties of traditional American Indian lodges. They examine the effect of increasing sides of a polygon, calculate the surface area of prisms and cylinders, and construct a classroom size pyramid...
