Using Pattern Blocks and Fractions
The lesson plan includes scaffolding with the use of a teacher assistant and peer tutoring. The lesson has good intentions and the set up for instruction is well thought out. However, there is not enough information in this lesson to...
Curated OER
Geography: Lengths, Perimeter, and Area of Similar Objects
Sixth graders explore characteristics of similar objects. Using attribute blocks, they explore the ratios of the perimeter, area and side length in similar shapes. They calculate and compare the area of shapes.
Curated OER
Using Geometric Shapes To Make Patterns
Sixth graders explore the use of shapes to create geometric patterns. they start with a simple example of dividing shapes in half to create two new ones. This can be extended to creating intricate patterns.
Curated OER
Prime and Composite Numbers, Prime Factorization
Students research prime and composite numbers. With a partner, students use graph paper to draw rectangles of various sizes. They list the dimensions of rectangles and discuss how the dimensions relate to the factors of each number....
