Connect the size of a rolling cup to the size of circle it makes. Pupils view videos of cups of different sizes rolling in a circle. Using the videos and additional data, they attempt to determine a relationship between cup...

In this tangram worksheet, students find the area of each tangram shape. Afterwards, they name each piece and find the area of combined figures. This one-page worksheet contains approximately 25 problems.

Tenth graders answer a variety of problems based on similar triangle and learn about the rule of thumb. They will test the rule of thumb by estimating the distance to an object in the classroom.

Learners, through lecture and guided practice, discover the properties of similar triangles. They use given measurements of one triangle to find a missing measurement of a similar triangle. They apply this knowledge in real-life...

Students and parents participate in a variety of activities designed to help them explore the similarities and differences of people. They design and wear masks, sort attribute blocks, read stories, discuss the rights and...

Discover trigonometric ratios that complement each other. Using two videos, the activity introduces the trigonometric ratios. The class discovers the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles.

Circles are the foundation of many geometric concepts and extensions - a point that is thoroughly driven home in this extensive unit. Fundamental properties of circles are investigated (including sector area, angle measure, and...

Lead a discussion on the similarities between the properties of area and the properties of volume. Using upper and lower approximations, pupils arrive at the formula for the volume of a general cylinder. 

In this proportions worksheet, 6th graders use the problem solving steps of understand, plan, solve and look back to solve a story problem using proportions.
