Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.

Learners examine tessellations and their geometric properties. The lesson plan and discussions may be used to develop students' understanding of polygons and symmetry as well as their ability to analyze patterns.

Learners investigate symmetry in the real world. In this geometry lesson, students inter-relate math and technology. They create and name a variety of polygons.

Students investigate transformation on a coordinate plane. For this geometry lesson, students identify pairs of coordinates and their location on the grid. They perform rotation and reflection of each polygon.

Students identify shapes that will tessellate. They construct a tessellation using transformations. Students identify transformations in tessellations. They identify applications of transformations such as tiling and fabric design.

Students form repeating patterns using tessellations. In this tessellations lesson, students identify shapes and illustrate three types of transformations. A website is included with the lesson which provides extension activities and...

Students identify the different symmetry in polygons. In this geometry lesson, students identify line, rotational and point symmetry in different objects. They find the symmetry with 90% accuracy.

In this geometry activity, students identify the different measure of each angle. They rotate the rays around and make observations about the angles formed. There are 15 questions and lots of examples.

Learners explore circles.  In this geometry lesson, students explore the relationship between the circumference of a circle, the distance a ball travels, and the number of rotations the ball must make in order to travel a certain...

Pupils use transformation to move the graph around. In this geometry lesson, students observe transformation of symmetry groups. They use the TI to move the sides of the polygons around and make predictions.

Young scholars investigate transformations.  In this Algebra I/Geometry instructional activity, students explore reflections, translations, rotations and dilations.  The instructional activity includes examples of...

Learners solve real life scenarios using math. In this geometry lesson, students collect, predict and interpret data. They measure a chair using different measurements and choose what would make the chair the best design.

In this assignment, math whizzes identify angles as either being obtuse, acute, right, or straight. Students identify six angles. The publisher states that this is designed with CCSS.Math.Content.MD.6 in mind, but it really does not ask...

Students explore the concept of fractals. In this fractal lesson, students use applets to explore Koch's Snowflake, Sierpinski's Triangle, and other fractals. Students develop these concepts through exploration and teacher guided...

In this congruency instructional activity, students complete problems dealing with congruent and non-congruent figures. Students complete 5 short answer and multiple choice problems.

In this congruency worksheet, 5th graders complete 4 questions about congruent figures and transformations. Page has links to additional activities.

In this transformations/translation activity, students draw transformations based on shapes and vectors of given translations. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this geometry worksheet, students transform a coordinate based on a reflection, translation, or dilation in order to obtain the image. There are 12 questions.

Third graders explore the history of tessellations; then use art and geometry to create an original tessellation.

Students explore patterns and sequences. Given an example of each, they discuss their observations. In groups, students participate in an "Around the World" activity where they rotate to different stations in the classroom to determine...

Fourth graders examine about traditional quilting patterns, the symmetry in such patterns, and practice creating patterns of their own. They design a quilting pattern, and groups make colorful "patches," of a pattern. They assemble the...

Students create a scrapbook. In this geometry lesson, students use digital cameras to take pictures of geometrical concepts. Students use the pictures to create a "Geotown" scrapbook.

Students calculate the area and circumference of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students solve word problems with circles and create formulas to calculate the area. They find the rate and complex area of a circle.

Students define properties of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similar and congruent polygons. They identify and use the properties of solids to solve problems.
