• Drawing geometric figures when given specified components, including base and height
• Investigating properties and relationships among congruent figures
• Identifying geometric ideas in settings outside the mathematics classroom
• Using networks to represent and solve problems

Shapes and Angles
What's left in art when you take away anything that looks like something?  Kandinsky did it - leaving color, line, geometric shapes and angles.

Perimeter
This lesson is designed to examine the mathematical concept of perimeter.  These activities and discussions may be used to develop students' understanding of this mathematical concept.

Area
This lesson is designed to examine the mathematical concept of area within fixed perimeters.  These activities and discussions may be used to develop students' understanding of this mathematical concept.

Length, Perimeter and Area
This lesson is designed to examine the mathematical concepts of length, perimeter, and area.  These activities and discussions may be used to develop students' understanding of these mathematical concepts.

Angles: 
Lesson designed to introduce students to acute, obtuse, and right angles, as well as vertical, adjacent, alternate interior, and alternate exterior angles.

• Activity
