Students study and observe the patterns made by the areas of the Sierpinski Triangle. Students use the computer to draw two or three iterations to discover the number patterns. Students complete worksheets based on Geometric Fractals.

Learners investigate surveying in this secondary mathematics lesson. They will explore a real world application of geometry and trigonometry as they create a plot plan using a geometry utility and calculate the area of the land parcel.

Students excavate an artifact. In this archaeology lesson, students get a bucket filled with dirt and a broken up artifact. They work in groups to take it out and to find what its purpose was. 

Second graders design and sketch a model house. For this technology lesson, 2nd graders construct their house using teacher provided materials. They present their finished project and explain their design in class.

For this images worksheet, students use different sized mirrors to determine how many angles and images are reflected. Students complete 5 sets of directions.

Students discover the difference between triangles. For this triangle lesson plan, students discuss the different types of triangles, then draw the three different types of triangles. The teacher will draw, or model, how to draw the...

Students draw triangles. In this shapes lesson, students discuss what they already know about triangles, what they are and what they are made up of. Students discuss the types of triangles and practice drawing each type.

Students identify the properties of an isosceles triangle. In this geometry lesson plan, students find the midpoint, median and angle bisector of a triangle. They construct angle bisectors and measure missing angles.

Students solve problems using mathematical skills. In this math lesson, the students use math concepts, to design a virtual path for a ladybug. The students will reinforce their skills in algebra and geometry concepts.

Sixth grade students: design a stained glass window, submitting their initial plan detailing the measurements of all lines and angles. Seventh grade students: create a scale drawing of their own geometric family of four members.

In this math worksheet, students use the sheet to conduct an investigation to find the trigonometric ratios using opposite and adjacent sides to see how they are related to each other.

Students classify triangles by the length of their sides. In this geometry lesson, students use a white board to demonstrate the angles of various triangles. Students construct an equilateral, isosceles, and a scalene triangle.

Fourth graders complete a variety of activities as they study the European exploration of the Midwest, focusing on Indiana. They map the path explorers took, comparing the British with the French. They research why the explorers stopped...

Fifth graders explore polygons. In this math lesson, 5th graders find examples of regular polygons in the classroom and measure the sides of figures to determine if they are regular polygons.

Learners explore the concept of area. In this area lesson plan, students find the area of irregular shapes with right angles. Learners break down each irregular shape into multiple regular shapes in order to find the area. Students...

In this congruency learning exercise, students find congruency in everyday packaging on everyday items and answer questions about them. Students answer 4 questions.

Tenth graders identidy and define various geometry terms, Students create exact replicas of a shape that is either smaller or larger than the original shape. Students prove that their entire shapes are larger or smaller in the same...

Fifth graders use pattern blocks and triagular grid paper to reivew shape names, be introduced to the concept of a tiling of the plane, and determine which pattern blocks tile the plane. They are asked if they comprehend what a...

Second graders explore shapes. After reading books about shapes, 2nd graders describe the properties of various shapes. They identify shapes if they have been rotated, flipped, or slid. Students create shapes using drawings and geoboards.

For this area worksheet, students solve for the area of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, trapezoids, kites, regular polygons, circles, and surface area.  The worksheets is divided into seven different sets of problems.

Fourth graders propose possible sites for the heart of Florida state capital by mapping collected data onto a Florida state map and recording data in a Travel Log.

Students create and color a one-patch quilt design based upon a regular hexagon. They examine quilts and photos of quilt designs, read a handout, and complete their quilt design on a worksheet.
