In this geometry learning exercise, students find the area of squares, rectangles, and non traditional shapes. Students complete 5 problems on this learning exercise. 

Address key vocabulary in the seventh grade Common Core Math Standards with this comprehensive list. A series of word cards is also provided that supports each term with images and examples, making this an excellent tool for teaching the...

Fourth graders investigate the concept of geometric patterning. They create their own patterns with a few basic requirements. The patterns must illustrate the concepts of flipping, 90 and 180 degree rotations. The collages also consist...

Geometric design makes a fashion statement! Challenge learners to design a hat to fit a Styrofoam model. Specifications are clear and pupils use concepts related to three-dimensional objects including volume of irregular shapes and...

In this geometry worksheet, students create circle, line and bar graphs using different comparisons of events. There are 24 questions with an answer key.

Practice recognizing types of additive angles with a worksheet in which pupils review adjacent, interior and exterior, complementary, and supplementary angles and use a diagram to give examples of them. Be aware that the diagram involves...

Tenth graders explore mathematics by participating in hands-on daily activities. Learners identify a list of different shapes and classify them by shape, size, sides and vertices. They utilize tangrams and geometric pieces to gain...

Students enjoy making 3-D figures while learning about rectangular prisms, pyramids, vertices, edges, and faces. After a lecture/demo, students use marshmallows, toothpicks and a worksheet imbedded in this lesson to create 3 dimensional...

Geometric shapes are used in math and in art. Learners discuss the various names, dimensions, and attributes of geometric shapes, then apply that knowledge to design a vase. They use 3-D shapes to make a cubist-style vase out of clay.

Fourth graders practice calculating area by creating a classroom quilt. Students are given a 6x6 inch square material they design based on a classroom theme. A sample of the class quilt is created using graph paper so students may...

With the help of the Area Officers and Perimeter Patrol, you learners will develop a better understanding of area and its relationship to perimeter. First, they view a video clip from Cyberchase, and then they visit a website to...

A geometry game that resembles Battleship is the foundation for hide and seek where "hiders" draw shapes on coordinate planes and "seekers" must guess the shape and its location based on questions and clues. Reproducible, paper-sized...

Use this activity on cross-sections of three-dimensional shapes in your math class to work on algebra or geometry Common Core standards. The lesson includes a list of relevent terminology, and a step-by-step process to illustrate the...

The history of math is fascinating! Utilize a woodcut primary source image from 1492 and posters from the 1930s to help geometers apply their volume-calculation skills to real-life questions. 

Students reflect, rotate, translate, and dilate figures in the Cartesian coordinate plane using grid paper and dot paper. They use transformations (i.e., reflections, translations, rotations, and dilations) to describe geometric patterns...

Fourth graders use tangram sets to investigate the congruence of shapes. They use congruent shapes to demonstrate the properties of slides, flips, and turns. They complete a math journal entry that describes and illustrates each concept.

Students establish classifications of shapes by various properties (angles, sides, etc.). They introduce the important properties of common shapes. Students develop an awareness of the wide variety of ways the 2-D shapes can be alike.

Explore the world of shapes! After free tangram exploration and pair share time, learners describe various patterns and shapes in both the natural and designed world. They investigate the use of tangrams to create patterns and shapes.

Students investigate the concepts of area and perimeter with the use of chocolate bars. They calculate the perimeter and area of different size rectangle chocolate bars and record the statistics. Then students make a visual comparison...

Students complete a webquest on the various types of symmetry. Using a computer, they explore the concepts of transformational geometry and identify points, segments, lines and planes. They experiment with the rotation of a quadrilateral...

In this area worksheet students read story problems, determine the necessary information to solve the problem. They find the amount of material needed to construct three-dimensional figures. Students determine the greatest and least area...

Check out the handout from a presentation that contains a collection of high school algebra projects connecting a variety of mathematics to the real world. Activities range from simple probabilities to calculus. The activities...

In this tessellations worksheet, learners name 3 items that have tessellating patterns. Students then use the interactive tessellating program found at www.shodor.org to draw and answer 5 questions about their tessellations.

Tenth graders perform reflections on different geometric shapes. In this geometry worksheet,students define the concept of geometric reflections and find the coordinates of the reflection on a coordinate grid.
