Let's Make GEOMETRY FUN!!

One of my goals this year is to create more geometry resources for my middle school students. I have found that when they practice and solve problems with graph organizers, task cards, error analysis and puzzles, they are able to understand the most difficult concepts in geometry.

Please check my TpT store to see all the new resources I have added!!

Mazes, Riddles, & Coloring Activities

A maze, riddle, and coloring page is included for each set. These activities allow students to practice skills while incorporating fun into the classroom!

6th Grade GEOMETRY: Area, Volume & Surface Area

When teaching the unit of geometry to your students be sure to include activities that are engaging and include a variety of applications. It is important for students to understand and conceptualize the meaning of area, surface area, and volume.

I suggest incorporating graphic organizers, mazes, riddles and coloring pages into your unit plan when introducing geometry to your students.

Here are just some of the activities that I have successfully used with my 6th-graders:

📐Area of Triangles Parallelograms & Trapezoids (Graphic Organizers)

📐Volume and Surface area of Prisms (Graphic Organizers)

📐Area of triangles (Mazes, Riddles & Coloring Pages)

1. Area of Triangles, Parallelograms, & Trapezoids

This resource includes 10 real-world AREA word problems that students must solve and explain using problem-solving strategies.

Each graphic organizer presents students with a word problem. Students must then organize the information they are given, SOLVE, JUSTIFY their work and EXPLAIN their solution. The answer key has the correct solutions as well as sample work.

I use this activity with pair-shares, as homework, stations, classwork, early finishers, and assessment prep.

Topics Covered:
✔ Area of Parallelograms
✔ Area of Triangles
✔ Area of Trapezoids
✔ Area on the Coordinate Plane
✔ Area of Composite Figures

Area of Parallelograms, Trapezoids, Triangles and Composite Figures

2. Volume & Surface Area of Prisms

VOLUME & SURFACE AREA OF PRISMS This resource includes 10 real-world VOLUME & SURFACE AREA of PRISMS word problems that students must solve and explain using problem-solving strategies. Each worksheet presents students with a word problem. Students must then organize the information they are given, SOLVE, JUSTIFY their work and EXPLAIN their solution. Topics: Volume of Rectangular Prisms & Triangular Prisms, Surface Area of Rectangular Prisms & Triangular Prisms Common Core: 6.G.2, 6.G.4:

3. Area of Triangles

Have your students apply their understanding of the AREA OF TRIANGLES with these fun activities including a maze, riddle and coloring activity.

What is Included:

__ Finding the area of Triangles COLORING ACTIVITY

Students are prompted to find the area of various triangles when given the measurements of the base and height. Students use their solutions to color the picture.

__ Finding the area of Triangles MAZE

This is a self-checking worksheet that allows students to strengthen their skills by finding the area of the given triangle. Students use their solutions to navigate through the puzzle.

__ Finding the area of Triangles RIDDLE

Students solve for the area of nine triangles and use the values to solve the riddle.

All 3 of these activities allow students to practice Finding the area of Triangles while incorporating fun into the classroom!

Doodle Math Guided Notes

I have created Guided Notes for my students to help them make and keep meaningful math notes.

Did you Know? Guided Notes aid in student focus, concept retention, engagement, and creativity.

Using these notes allows my students to synthesize math concepts and create their own tangible connections in their notes.

Must-Haves for Your Math Stations

There are a few supplies you want to have when creating and using math stations with your students. These must-haves will save you time and money. Best of all, it will keep your math stations running smoothly.

1. Card Stock Paper

Print your resources on card stock paper. It's heavier than copy paper but still easy to cut. Colored card stock is a few dollars more but I find that students respond to resources on colored paper.

I personally like to use the different colors to separate my materials by topic (red - fractions, yellow - decimals) so that I can quickly identify what students are working on.

It's that time of the year again. Time to slowly get our students into test prep mode. I have created these packets to help you get started.
These Winter Math Packets have it all and require NO PREP! That's right...just print and go. The resources each of these packets are designed to meet Common Core Standards for 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grade math.

I have included questions from each of the domains, and each domain(topic) is on a different page so that you may customize this packet as needed. These questions are aligned to the Common Core, making this perfect for test prep.
