Develop a sense of understanding. Pupils learn eight definitions dealing with types of lines and angles formed when two lines are crossed by another line. Learners use the definitions to identify the lines and pairs of angles in figures...

Work within a parallel universe. Scholars learn about the relationships of angles when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. They see how to find the measurements of all eight angles by knowing the measure of one angle....

Show it can all be proved. Scholars learn the converses of the properties of parallel lines. Using the converses, pupils determine which lines are parallel based on angle measurements and practice using a flow proof to show that two...

Learners watch a quick review on the Parallel and Perpendicular Lines unit. The pupils work through ten review problems ranging from identifying types of angles formed by parallel lines and transversals to writing equations of parallel...

How do you find the lengths of items that cannot be directly measured? The 13th installment in a series of 16 has pupils use the similarity content learned in an earlier resource to solve real-world problems. Class members determine...

How do dilated line segments relate? Lead the class in an activity to determine the relationship between line segments and their dilated images. In the fourth section in a unit of 16, pupils discover the dilated line...

Getting comfortable with the sounds associated with each letter is crucial in a young learner's path to becoming literate. This lesson provides a terrific way to reinforce this skill in an engaging and fun manner. It's a game that the...

Learners practice the strategy of phoneme awareness in order to identify phonemes with vocal gestures in spoken words. They blend letters and sounds together utilizing the phoneme /i/ by symbol and letter representation and listen as the...

Practice pronouncing and spelling words with the /e/ sound with spellers. They blend phonemes with spelling maps to master important representation and letter symbol of the short vowel /e/. They also make sock puppets and study the...

Get involved with phonics by recognizing one particular letter. Learners name a letter, know it by sound, decode basic CVC words and use the letter in writing. A variety of options are given to the your learners: making a letter collage,...

Participate in a scavenger hunt to find objects beginning with a particular letter sound and take digital photos of them with your scholars. Using software, they find word pictures beginning with particular letters and locate picture...

Do you see an instrument in this picture? You will once similar word sounds are colored! Words that begin with yellow begin with the same sound as queen, words that end with the same sound as fox are red, and all other words are green....

Is your elementary class learning letters and letter sounds? This take-home sheet provides a week's worth of practice for your learner at home. The repetitive nature helps learners remember! 

With attractive graphics and easy-to-read letters, this resource could be used in kindergarten to review letters and sounds. Although just a presentation with letters and pictures, it could be used in a variety of ways. Teachers could...

Large font and colorful images allow your students to study words including the silent "e". There are a total of nine words on separate slides with the consonants and vowels typed in different colors. Tip: While reading the...

Scholars listen to a rhyming song, clap when they hear a rhyme, and shake their heads when they don't. They then draw a pair of objects that rhyme. 

Make a phonics train filled with matching initial phonemes. Early readers say the name of the objects on each of their cards, identify the initial letter sounds or phonemes, then paste them on a train. They make three trains, which means...

An activity focuses on phonemic awareness and initial letter sounds. Scholars sort picture cards by saying and matching the initial sounds each word makes.

Working pairs, early readers put their hands into a mystery box, pull out an item, then name and identify its initial phoneme. 

Pre-readers use the provided cards to say and sort based on the number of phonemes in each word.

Early readers get together and match medial phonemes. They take turns picking picture cards from a pile; they say each word, then determine whether the pair has matching medial sounds.

Sound sorting can be a fun way to get little ones phonologically prepared for a life of reading. In this activity, learners sort picture cards based on the long or short vowel sound they make when said aloud.

Scholars make new words out of old ones by manipulating phonemes. Pupils mix and match initial, medial, and final phonemes to change words like cap into cup or head into bed.

This neat idea gets kids to use phonics and puzzle-solving skills. Pairs take turns picking picture cards from a pile, say the name of the object on the card, drop a letter to turn that word into a new word, then look for the new word on...
