A hands-on activity uses the Zome modeling system, and helps young geometers either learn or review their knowledge of polygons. Students build as many different 2-dimensional polygons as possible: triangle, square, rectangle, pentagon,...

Learners explore a variety of geometric shapes, name them, and list their characteristics. The shapes are transposed into structures and checked for accuracy.

Students investigate tips for calculating math problems mentally.

In this math testing practice worksheet, students practice problem solving and calculating the answers to a variety of thirty mathematical word equations.

In this algebra puzzle worksheet, students evaluate 25 different expressions using the values provided for a, b, c, x, y, and z. They then match the answer to the correct letter of the alphabet and use the letters to solve the quotation...

Students identify numbers as prime or composite and complete prime factorization of composite numbers.

Students identify the different properties of quadrilaterals. In this geometry-lesson, students define parallel sides and diagonals of polygons as they compare to a quadrilateral. They identify the methods to find the angles in a...

Students explore the concept of a quadrat study. Students select and investigate a site and conduct a quadrat survey. They take measurements, observe the area and analyze their findings.

Students discover through guided, online research the life and works of Piet Mondrian in this technology-based Art lesson for the 2nd and 3rd grades. Emphasis is placed on the student creation of "Mondrian"-like drawings using Appleworks 6.
