Lead your high school class on a journey through the world of symmetry and reflections as you discuss geometric principles. Pupils differentiate between reflections and rotations, explore rotational symmetry, and investigate how to...

And round and round the park we go! Given a description of an amusement park with the locations of three attractions connected by walkways, learners consider what happens when additional attractions join the mix by doubling the length of...

Students use clock arithmetic to find remainders. In this patterns in math instructional activity, students explore the relationship between clock arithmetic and remainders using a computer applet. Students also identify patterns in...

Fourth graders identify and label different types of polygons in real life situations. Using a digital camera, they take pictures of polygons on the school grounds, tally the number of shapes found, and answer discussion questions.

Students identify polygons.  In this geometric shape instructional activity, students explore the characteristics of polygons.  They identify polygons, and classify triangles according to their sides and angles.  Students...

Third graders differentiate between vertebrates and invertebrates, and identify the main characteristics of mammals, fish, reptiles, amphibians, and birds. They sort and categorize different types of balls, discuss the characteristics...

In this triangle worksheet, students identify a set of triangles, labeling as equilateral, scalene or isosceles. A reference web site is given for additional activities. 

In this triangle worksheet, students identify a set of triangles as either acute, right or obtuse, checking the appropriate box beneath each. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

High schoolers write the equation of a circle. In this geometry lesson plan, students check the solution of a coordinate pair by evaluating them. They graph the circle given the equation and radius.

In this sum of angles worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 6 different types of problems. First, they identify different alternate and corresponding angles. Then, students state what the angles of a triangle add up to and how they...

Individuals show what they know about the geometric representations of complex numbers and linearity. Seventeen questions challenge them to demonstrate their knowledge of moduli and operations with complex numbers. The assessment is...

Pupils become familiar with four major body types; assess their own bodies, and complete an assignment showing which styles and design details would look best on different body types.

Students complete a webquest on the various types of symmetry. Using a computer, they explore the concepts of transformational geometry and identify points, segments, lines and planes. They experiment with the rotation of a quadrilateral...

Students listen to a read aloud of Alan Baker's, White Rabbit's Color Book while identifying shapes and lines throughout the book. They use shapes and different types of lines to create a bunny of their own. They must use five shapes to...

Young scholars conduct an experiment.  In this fire lesson, students view an experiment where they learn the conditions needed to keep a fire burning.  Young scholars discuss the experiment and learn about the fire triangle.

Students make a quilt. In this geometry lesson plan, students discuss patchwork quilts and learn some different geometric shapes and patterns that are commonly used. Students explore designs with triangles and squares and then make their...

Students identify the importance of the Principles and Elements of design through self-analysis and sketching clothing appropriate for their body type. They write the actual color name on a line of the included sheet, then describe why...

Students examine the physical properties of matter. They identify and classify a variety of objects based on their physical properties.

In this angles learning exercise, students answer multiple choice questions about different types of angles and measurements of angles. Students complete 6 questions total.

In this geometry practice worksheet, students use their problem solving skills to identify the types of triangles the 3 labeled triangles are.

High schoolers examine tesselllations and their geometric properties. They have a better knowledge of polygons, can identify types of symmetry in tessellations. Also students use visulization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling...

Students play various games to help create a classroom community. In this name recognition lesson, students combine their name recognition skills with newly learned art and geometric vocabulary. First students discover vocabulary that...
