Lesson  (...)
Lesson: Introduces students to quadrilaterals with an emphasis on defining characteristics of parallelograms, rectangles, and trapezoids.

Lesson: Introduces students to acute, obtuse, and right angles as well as relationships between angles formed by parallel lines crossed by a transversal.

Lesson: Comparing shapes with the same areas but different perimeters.

Lesson: This lesson utilizes the concepts of cross-sections of three-dimensional figures to demonstrate the derivation of two-dimensional shapes.

Lesson: Explores lines, planes, angles, and polygons in tessellations.

Lesson: Introduces students to the ideas involved in understanding fractals.

Lesson: Introduces students to lines, rays, line segments, and planes.

Lesson: Students learn how the Pythagorean Theorem works and how to apply it.

Lesson: Introduces students to the concepts of surface area and volume.

Lesson: This lesson teaches students how to find the surface area of non-rectangular prisms.

Lesson: This lesson teaches students how to find the surface area of rectangular prisms.

Lesson: Examines plane symmetry.

Lesson: Explore the mathematical nature of art and tilings and looks at the role of math in nature and our culture.

Lesson: This lesson teaches students how to find the volume of non-rectangular prisms.

Lesson: This lesson teaches students how to find the volume of rectangular prisms.

Activity  (...)
Activity: Learn the relationship between perimeter and area. A shape will be automatically generated with the perimeter that you choose. Calculate the area of this shape. Area Explorer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Explore cross sections of different geometric solids: cone, double cone, cylinder, pyramid, and prism. Manipulate the cross section with slider bars, and see how the graphical representation changes.

Activity: Build a "floor tile" by dragging the corners of a quadrilateral. Learn about tessellation of quadrilateral figures when the shape you built is tiled over an area.

Activity: Learn the relationship between perimeter and area. A shape will be automatically generated with the area that you choose. Calculate the perimeter of this shape. Perimeter Explorer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: This activity operates in one of two modes: auto draw and create shape mode, allowing you to explore relationships between area and perimeter. Shape Builder is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Learn the relationship between perimeter and area. A random shape will be automatically generated. Calculate the area and perimeter of this shape. Shape Explorer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Carpet -- a fractal made from subdividing a square into nine smaller squares and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.

Activity: Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Triangle -- a fractal made from subdividing a triangle into four smaller triangles and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.

Activity: Learn about how the Pythagorean Theorem works through investigating the standard geometric proof. Parameters: Sizes of the legs of the triangle.

Activity: Create a tessellation by deforming a triangle, rectangle or hexagon to form a polygon that tiles the plane. Corners of the polygons may be dragged, and corresponding edges of the polygons may be dragged. Parameters: Colors, starting polygon.
