Students construct perpendicular lines. In this geometry lesson, students use a compass and straight edge to do construction. They start from a point to a line.

Young scholars construct triangles. In this geometry lesson, students create equilateral triangles. They also construct triangles where the sides are different. They use the lab to create and move shapes around with the Cabri program.

Students identify lines, and line segments. In this geometry instructional activity, students divide line segments into equal congruent parts. They complete a laboratory activity dealing with lines and segments.

Students identify interior and exterior angles of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students add interior and exterior angles of polygons. They use angle theorems to solve the problems.

Young scholars use Heron's formula to calculate the area of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, students use three different methods to solve the area of a triangle. They find and construct the incentor and angle bisector of a...

Students perform reflections and translations of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform reflection in two parallel lines. They use Cabri to observe the transformation and rotations of each shape.

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

Students create tessellations. In this geometry instructional activity, students use polygons to create different patterns by rotation. They identify the reasons for polygons to create the type of tessellation it does.

Students investigate the creation of three dimensional drawings. In this geometry lesson, students analyze and complete orthographic drawings. They Cabri software to manipulate and move the drawings around.

Students investigate orthographic drawings. In this geometry activity, students identify properties of three dimensional drawings in space. They solve problems using volume and area formulas.

Fifth graders have to use division to solve problems in everyday situations. This worksheet on estimation and division has students practice these skills using real-life examples. The worksheet is part of the Houghton Mifflin math series...

Young scholars explore the cost of college and how to plan and save. In this money management lesson students do research on the cost of college, learn about making financial choices, earning, spending, saving, investing and how they...

Students study the relationship between circumference and diameter to come up with Pi. "In this pi lesson, students measure, record and find the ratio "circumference/diameter" and their average which is an approximation of pi.

Young scholars explore the concept of getting a job and buying a home. In this getting a job and buying a home lesson, students research job qualifications and salaries for various jobs. Young scholars discuss what is a mortgage and...

Students explore polynomial functions.  In this Algebra II lesson, students explore graphs of polynomial functions as classify the functions as linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic.  Students determine the regression equation...

Young scholars construct midsegments. In this geometry lesson, students make conjectures and apply properties of triangles to solve problems. They complete an activity on the computer.
