End of the Year Geometry Projects
Geometry students will be ecstatic about these engaging and enlightening end-of-the-year projects! Types of project ideas include interviewing a geometer, an ABCs of geometry poster, an engineering lab report, and origami work.
Balanced Assessment
Square in Square
Challenge the class to devise a method to determine the dimensions of a rectangle inscribed in another rectangle. Pupils make connections between functions and geometry as they examine the area and perimeter of a square or rectangle...

Geometric Glances
Second graders locate, comprehend, interpret, evaluate, maintain, and apply information, concepts, and ideas found in literature, the arts, symbols, recordings, video and other graphic displays, and computer files in order to perform...
Curated OER
Ge-Oh Boy, Oh Boy
Students listen to the book, Sam Johnson and the Blue Ribbon Quilt and discuss the art of quilting. They examine various symmetrical sewing designs, and identify reflection pieces, slides, and flips.
Curated OER
Side Lengths of Similar Shapes
In this side lengths worksheet, students determine the value of x in 4 pairs of shapes. A reference web site is given for additional activities.
Curated OER
Polygons and Plane Figures
Learners choose a polygon to define and describe, and use Power Point and the Internet to present their polygon.
Curated OER
Geometric Figures-Triangles
Fourth graders explore triangles. In this math lesson, 4th graders discuss the different types of triangles. Students create triangles using wiki sticks. Students complete an online matching game.

Calculate Volume: Pictorial
Learners find the volume of four figures drawn in shaded cube form. A reference web site is given for additional activities.
Curated OER
Marshmallow Geometry
In this three-dimensional shapes geometry lesson, learners identify geometric solids and name their properties. They define "face," "edge," and "vertex," and construct geometric solids using marshmallows as vertices and toothpicks as edges.
Curated OER
It's Not All Greek to Me
Learners find out the meaning for prefixes used in math vocabulary. By dissecting words used in everyday math, they figure out what the prefix indicates and what the word means. A variety of well-organized worksheets and activities...
