Application of Delta-Epsilon Definition of the Limit
Students create a Hexaflexagon using a formula. In this calculus lesson, students apply the definition of delta epsilon as it relates to limit to create a shape using creases. They relate the same rule to triangles and investigate angles.

If You Can’t Stand the Heat
Students design and build their own solar cooker. In this math lesson, students determine the relationship between the angles of the sun, reflection and cooking time of the solar cooker. They test their project, collect data and...

Can You Name That Shape?
Learners use materials to build, investigate, and draw two-dimensional shapes (polygons). They combine the shapes they have built and draw from the pile to begin a round-robin activity to name and determine the attributes of a selection...
Curated OER
Tessellations
Learners create tessellations. In this geometry lesson, students use polygons to create different patterns by rotation. They identify the reasons for polygons to create the type of tessellation it does.
Curated OER
Designing a Quilt Pattern
Students create and color a one-patch quilt design based upon a regular hexagon. They examine quilts and photos of quilt designs, read a handout, and complete their quilt design on a worksheet.
Curated OER
Structures and Shapes
Pupils make jewelry using different shapes from magazines, tissue paper, cardboard, and other materials. For this making jewelry lesson plan, students complete this hands on activity to discuss how shapes are used.
Curated OER
Hidden Jewels of Geometry
Students identify different geometric shapes, and arrange them artistically in original jewelry designs.
