Exploring Geometric Patterns and Relationships

Challenge young mathematicians' understanding of symmetry. Provided with images of different shapes, letters, and national flags, students are tasked with identifying the lines of symmetry and order of rotational symmetry...

This collaborative activity investigates the meaning of a trapezoid and a parallelogram. It begins by presenting two different definitions of a trapezoid. Learners are to reason abstractly the difference between the two definitions and...

Parallelograms are pairs of triangles all the way around. Pupils measure to determine the area and perimeter of a parallelogram. They then find the area of the tirangles formed by drawing a diagonal of the parallelogram and compare their...

Real-life math is really great! In groups, learners measure objects in the classroom. After comparing measurements, they determine a scale and create a blueprint of the classroom. They discuss the purpose of using scale drawings in...

Learners study facial symmetry. They explore lines of symmetry, and create illustrations with multiple lines of symmetry.

Sixth graders explore lines and angles. They create visual representations of lines, rays and angles by drawing them on paper and using a geoboard. On paper, 6th graders write a summary of the characteristics of their representations.

In this video, we create an equation and graph to show a linear relationship based on the word problem. This is a good example for algebra and pre-algebra learners to help them understand creating equations and graphing relationships...

Students explore lines, rays, line segments, and planes. In this math lesson, students discuss the math concepts and direct their instructor in graphing functions. Students collaborate in graphing additional functions.

The teacher shows how draw a number line and graph an inequality using an open circle. She also shows how to graph a set of numbers on a number line.

Join Joan the chameleon in an exploration of lines and slope. You'll be drawing lines, calculating slope, using equations and more!
