Curated OER
My Test Book: Geometry skills
In this online interactive math skills instructional activity, students solve 10 multiple choice math problems regarding geometry skills. Students may view the correct answers.
Curated OER
Tessellations
Students create tessellations. In this geometry lesson plan, students use polygons to create different patterns by rotation. They identify the reasons for polygons to create the type of tessellation it does.
Curated OER
Explore Area
In this exploring area worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems using the provided diagrams.
Curated OER
Patterns in the Sums of Polygon Angles
Sixth graders discover the patterns of sums of polygon angles. In this math lesson, 6th graders study the properties of geometric shapes to solve problems as they participate in hands-on activities.
Curated OER
Meet the Polygon Family
Fourth graders investigate regular polygons. In this regular polygon lesson, 4th graders explore the attributes of different polygons. Students work in groups to complete a KWL chart regarding polygons.
