Curated OER
Angles and Arcs
Students discuss the sum of central angles and use string to create them on circles. They find the measure and length of both minor and major arcs.
Students give examples of concentric, similar, and congruent circles and congruent arcs.

Origami Frogs
Ninth graders explore a variety of geometry and science concept while making an origami frog. The fold paper into the shape of a frog and conduct measurement activities including frog leaps.
Curated OER
Polygons
Students work together to create mobiles with different polygons. They research the polygon and list its characteristics. They may present to the class if they chose to.

Squirrel Challenge
Young scholars utilize The Nature Park Adventure educational software program to Introduce Modelling, Including the Estimation of Angles.
Curated OER
See What You Can Find
Third graders search for and locate examples of acute, right, straight and obtuse angles in the classroom. They record their findings by writing the exact location of each angle found and organize them into angle categories.
Curated OER
Angles: Angles, Angles, Everywhere
Middle schoolers estimate and accurately measure the size of angles communicate with the appropriate geometric terms and symbols to describe and name angles, lines, line segments, rays
Curated OER
Bisecting Angles and Segments
Students bisect angles and segments using a mira. They measure the original angles and segments and the angles and segments formed by bisecting to better see the relationship between them.
Curated OER
Geometry in Tessellations
Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.
