"Sweet Clara and the Freedom Quilt" by Deborah Hopkinson
Learners create paper quilts of their own using the isometric grid that tessellates the plane or the fraction quilt square.
Curated OER
Mandala Art
Students investigate art elements such as color schemes and proportion by creating their own personal Mandala Circle on paper or canvas. This also allows students to investigate mathematical concepts such as tesselations or social...
Curated OER
Printing Border Patterns
Students design printing blocks with patterns cut with scissors and/or Speedball Linozip Cutters. They print colorful repeating, alternating or tessellating pattern designs of difficulty appropriate for their age level.

Using Tiling to Find Area
There is only one area calculation problem here, and the explanation is detailed below; consider projecting this as an all-class warm up. Scholars assess a rectangle with given length and width, calculating its area. Next, they break it...
Curated OER
Geometric Transformations
Learners examine images and preimages of a mapping and identify isometry. They view images by M.C. Escher, observe teacher demonstrations, and create a translation image, a rotation image, and a dilation.
Virginia Department of Education
Translation and Reflection
Bring about the change you want to see in the world or at least in your lesson plans. Young mathematicians learn about translation and reflections by applying them to polygons on the coordinate plane. Results provide data to develop...
Curated OER
Performing Transformations
Students investigate the concepts relating to creating a tessellation. They include using pattern blocks in order to create interconnecting patterns. Students review translations, rotations, and reflections.
Curated OER
Jenny Ten's Wallpaper
In this literacy learning exercise, students create a unique design based upon the number ten. The directions even encourage the creation of a tessellation.
Curated OER
Tiling with Pentominoes
For this tiling with pentominoes worksheet, 10th graders solve 3 different problems related to tiling with pentominoes. First, they define pentomino as a type of polygon and locate 10 other pentomino shapes in the figure shown at the...
Curated OER
Intuitive Approach to Limits
Students view examples of art work that illustrate limits in calculus. Students will lecture on limits and then complete practice drill. This lesson does not include a defined procedure or practice problems. All the art links work but...
Curated OER
Geometry Level 3
What a wonderful resource! Learners create two-dimensional shapes according to the instructions stated, use the squares to make a triangular prism, a cube, and a pyramid, and identify features of plane shapes, among a myriad of other...
Curated OER
Miras, Mirrors, and Kaleidoscopes!
Students use hands-on activities to explore transformations. They view a video segment that demonstrate how M. C. Escher employed geometry and transformations to create so many of his famous drawings.
Curated OER
Marshmallow Figures
Students enjoy making 3-D figures while learning about rectangular prisms, pyramids, vertices, edges, and faces. After a lecture/demo, students use marshmallows, toothpicks and a worksheet imbedded in this lesson plan to create 3...
Incredible Art Department
Notan Collages - "Expanding the Square"
Notan is a Japanese word that expresses the interaction between light and dark. Learners explore Notan while creating dimensional art pieces that examine positive and negative spaces. They'll discuss the art of Notan, create their...
Curated OER
Points, Lines, Planes, and Space
In this points, lines, planes, and space worksheet, young scholars solve word problems dealing with points, lines, planes, and space. Students complete 20 individual problems and 20 group problems.
Curated OER
Who Said Math Can't Be Fun?
With these innovative ideas, demonstrate to your class that math doesn't always have to be hard work.
Mathed Up!
Congruent Shapes
Are congruent shapes compatible? Congruent shapes are identical to one another, and throughout the assessment, young mathematicians identify given shapes as congruent.
University of Utah
Geometry: Angles, Triangles, and Distance
The Pythagorean Theorem is a staple of middle school geometry. Scholars first investigate angle relationships, both in triangles and in parallel lines with a transversal, before proving and applying the Pythagorean Theorem.
Bowland
Design the Mascot
Explore how resizing an object affects its area. The set of lessons challenges young mathematicians to design a mascot for electronic devices. These designs undergo resizing to determine how scale factors of dilation affect area.
Curated OER
Twists and Turns
Pupils reflect, rotate, translate, and dilate figures in the Cartesian coordinate plane using grid paper and dot paper. They use transformations (i.e., reflections, translations, rotations, and dilations) to describe geometric patterns...
