Seventh graders use a protractor to measure angles and solve a problem involving distance. In this measuring angles with a protractor lesson plan, 7th graders calculate the distance of a line on a diagram by using a protractor to measure...

Is that drawn to scale? Capture the artistry of geometry using the ratio method to create dilations. Mathematicians use a center and ratio to create a scaled drawing. They then use a ruler and protractor to verify measurements. 

Students use a protractor to measure angles. They classify angles by type: right angle, acute angles, and obtuse angles. Students build and draw right, acute, and obtuse angles. They discuss how do people in various professions use...

Fourth and fifth graders make a protractor and identify various angle types. In this protractor and angle lesson, learners make their own protractor and use it to measure a variety of angles. They complete worksheets while identifying...

Fifth graders use the SMART Board to demonstrate how to use a protractor to measure acute, obtuse, and right angles. In this protractor lesson plan, 5th graders also complete an angles worksheet.

Let me get an angle on this! Investigate the orientation of a photovoltaic panel and its effect on efficiency. By using a light source, learners collect and plot current output to determine the ultimate orientation. The resource includes...

Learners study acute triangles. They measure angles using a protractor, then classify the triangles as either right, obtuse, or acute. Everyone creates a design for a Navajo rug using only acute triangles.

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

Explore angle relationships created by parallel lines and transversals. The 13th lesson of 18 prompts scholars use transparency paper to discover angle relationships related to transversals. Learners find out that these angles pairs are...

Learners map their playground as if it were an archeological site. They locate objects on the playground and determine their location using coordinate points. A related lesson plan is Coordinate Grid: Mapping an Archeological Site.

Young classes are sure to get a charge out of this lesson plan! Learners experiment with circuits of a solar cell. They practice determining current, voltage, and power for the circuit and maximize the voltage and current of the cell.

Students create angles using mirrors. In this angle reflection instructional activity, students draw angles, then use mirrors to create angles using reflections and measure the new angles.

Define and identify the three basic forms of symmetry translation, rotation, and glides with your class. They cut out and arrange paper pattern blocks to illustrate symmetry, create a Cartesian graph, and design a rug with a symmetrical...

Physics lab groups finagle with laser lights to determine the critical angle of refraction for both water and Lucite. Because there are no detailed steps or an answer key for this enlightening exercise, an inexperienced physics...

Pupils practice drawing geometric figures. In this geometry lesson plan, learners complete an activity that requires them to draw angles and shapes to the nearest degree.

Is that a right triangle or a wrong triangle? Young mathematicians look at eleven different shapes and use a measuring tool of their choice to determine which triangles have right angles. Consider cutting out sets of the shapes to...

Help 9th graders identify lines, points, rays, and planes in geometry. They  practice identifying, measuring, and drawing angles of different degrees. This is a fundamental lesson to help students learn the building blocks of geometry.

Glaciologists in your class make models of glaciers to simulate how they move down a valley, and then they use it to test any aspect of glacier movement. Not only is this a vivid visual of how these monsters of ice flow, but it is also...

Sixth graders investigate different types of angles. In this geometry lesson, 6th graders use a protractor to identify acute, obtuse, and straight angles.

Guide your geometers through the process of constructing polygons. They learn how to draw triangles, squares, parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses, and trapezoids with specified angles using a protractor and a ruler. The lesson plan...

Student complete worksheet using the definitions of lines and angle vocabulary. They define the word and follow a direction given on the worksheet such "construct a line." They complete an online tutorial on how to measure angles using a...

Students practice using a protractor and ruler to draw various points and lines. Using a computer, they draw the points and lines in the program and describe the differences between their drawing and the computer's drawing. They complete...

Teach your class how to apply their knowledge of geometry as they explore the unknown. In order to find an unknown angle, learners must understand that rectangles have four interior right angles, that right angles have 90 degrees, and...

Students measure angles.  In this angle lesson, students draw angles.  They  use a protractor to measure angles and identify the angle as straight, right, acute, or obtuse.
