Fifth graders connect their knowledge of polygons and polyhedrons. For this geometric shapes lesson, 5th graders identify and classify two- and three-dimensional objects. Students construct a polyhedron out of polygons and describe their...

Students understand where the number for pi comes from. They understand and use the formula for circumference. Students measure the circles given out and the diameters of those circles and record the results on their worksheet.

In this measurements learning exercise, students find their weight, height, width and depth of their bodies at home using equipment around their homes. They use the proper number of significant figures to record their answers and they...

Students find the mass, volume, and density of various objects. In this density measurement activity, students observe how same-sized objects can have different masses, then use water displacement to find the density of each object and...

In this algebra learning exercise, students review geometric and algebraic concepts for the state exam at the end of the year. They discuss factoring and volumes, prisms and measuring. There are over 16 pages of questions on this lesson.

Pupils calculate the surface area of different prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify the shapes of solids based on the properties of that solid. They calculate the surface area using nets and properties of prisms.

In this word problem worksheet, 5th graders review various mathematical terms by selecting the correct letter that answers each question completely. There are a total of 13 math problems to solve which vary between word problems,...

Young scholars calculate the amount of wrapping paper needed to wrap boxes. They describe how they determined their answers.

Learners calculate the surface area of three rectangular prisms, including a cube, based on given dimensions. There are only three diagrams with which to work. Nice homework, as it provides practice, but isn't too much busy work or...

Students create a mobile of boxes and cubes that they made in a previous lesson that can be accessed from this page. They design the mobile using method that an engineer would use to balance the items based on surface areas and volumes.

Learners investigate the idea of gender descrimination in the classroom. In this algebra activity, students collect data in stereotyping, and gender bias in the classroom, school materials and activities. They graph and analyze their...

Learners use specific dimensions to create a box. In this geometry lesson plan, students analyze the different properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They make conjectures and use it to solve problems.
