Curated OER
Geo Jammin' By DeSign - Day 1, Lesson 1: Math in Motion
Second graders, through large screen monitor, study geometric design. They participate in a diagnostic assessment in which they use pnecils, scissors and paste.
Curated OER
Mirror Tool
Students define properties of polygons. In this geometry activity, students differentiate between similar and congruent polygons. They identify and use the properties of solids to solve problems.
Curated OER
Spiders' Wheel
Students engage in a lesson which reinforces the concepts of clockwise and anti-clockwise rotation, while developing an understanding that angles are measured in degrees. They utilize a mathematics educational program to gain practice.
Curated OER
Geo Jammin By Design: The Important Thing
Students brainstorm what they know about geometric terms and patterns. They identify symmetry, shapes and congruency. They create a book of symmetry.
Curated OER
Geo Jammin' By DeSign - Day 4, Lesson 22: Authentic Design
Students explore the complexity of handmade quilts and their designs by looking a real life samples.
Curated OER
Ge-Oh Boy, Oh Boy
Students listen to the book, Sam Johnson and the Blue Ribbon Quilt and discuss the art of quilting. They examine various symmetrical sewing designs, and identify reflection pieces, slides, and flips.
Curated OER
Origami Frogs
Ninth graders explore a variety of geometry and science concept while making an origami frog. The fold paper into the shape of a frog and conduct measurement activities including frog leaps.
Curated OER
"Geotown" Scrapbook
Students create a scrapbook. For this geometry lesson, students use digital cameras to take pictures of geometrical concepts. Students use the pictures to create a "Geotown" scrapbook.
Curated OER
The Delta Flier
Students make calculations in order to construct a kite in the shape of an isosceles right triangle. In this kite lesson students calculate altitude of their flying kites using a formula.
