Middle School Geometry Activities

Engaging Daily practice:

I never seem to have enough time to practice measurement, geometry, and data, so I created these bellringers to quickly practice these skills with my class.

These bellringers are based on “National day of...”. The problems presented cover measurement conversion, geometry (polygons, perimeter, area, volume), data collection and analysis.

This is a digital activity which can be posted each day. Answer sheets are provided in three options. Teachers can choose between sheets with or without reference items.

Great practice of those skills which don't get as much attention.

What's included:

• Google Slides for August with reference items.
• Google Slides for August with reference items and answers.
• Google Slides for August with no reference items.
• Google Slides for August with no reference items with answers.
• Three versions of answer sheets for students.
• Answer key.
• Teacher instructions.
• Links for Google Slides.

How is this product useful:

• Low prep for the teacher.
• Engaging for the students.
• Good practice for important math skills.
• Options for a variety of skill levels.

Students will love this Jeopardy-like review game to practice all 5th Grade Common Core Geometry standards. Questions focus on the coordinate plane, properties of 2-dimensional shapes, characteristics of 2-dimensional shapes, and key vocabulary words. Points range from 100 - 500, which reflect the increase in difficulty throughout each category.

**FULLY EDITABLE** While the game is complete, it is also editable in PowerPoint, making it easy to add questions or change the level of difficulty based on your students' needs.

The game includes 30 high quality questions - 6 categories with 5 questions each ranging in difficulty from basic review (100) to challenging (500)

⭐Understanding the Coordinate Plane: these questions ask students to find and name points on the coordinate plane, as well as find distance between two points on the coordinate plane - all in the first quadrant

⭐Real World Problems on the Coordinate Plane: this category asks about the relationship between points on a coordinate plane when they are plotted to show a real-world situation. It also has students find the area and/or perimeter of a shape plotted on the coordinate plane.

⭐Classifying 2-Dimensional Shapes: students must answer questions about various types of triangles (acute, obtuse, right and equilateral, isosceles, scalene) and types of quadrilaterals (parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, square, trapezoid). Students must understand the key differences between each of these to help classify the shapes.

⭐Properties of 2-Dimensional Shapes: these questions involve understanding types of lines and angles, and how each is used to describe specific triangles and quadrilaterals.

⭐Mixed Review: students are asked computation problems to review addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division - all at a 5th grade level

⭐Vocabulary: this section asks about the meaning of words related to the coordinate plane, types of lines, types of angles, and specific names of shapes

Objective: The objective of the game "Oops" is to get your teammates to guess a word without using certain pre-defined words or phrases associated with it - these are called "Oopsies"

Gameplay:

1. The clue giver selects a number from the selection board, revealing the word to be described as well as the "oopsies" associated with it.
2. The clue giver must then describe the word without using any of the "oopsies".
3. The guessers on the team try to guess the word based on the clues given. The guesser sits with their back turned to the slide, while the clue giver faces the slide.
4. The guesser can make as many guesses as they want within 1 minute.
5. If a teammate guesses the word correctly, the team earns a point. However, if the clue giver uses an "oopsie," they forfeit a point.
6. After the minute is up or the word is correctly guessed, play passes to the next team.
7. Play continues back and forth until all the slides have been used or a set number of rounds has been completed.
8. The team with the most number of points wins.

Are you looking for a fun way to assess angles, lines, using a protractor to draw angles, and angle relationships? Then look no further! This fun math activity provides students with an opportunity to be an Urban Planner. They will use list of instructions to create their own Seasonal Town (Falling Leaves Town, Winter Wonderland Town, Spring Showers Town and Summer Sun Town). Each project has the same set of instructions but the street names are different to reflect the appropriate seasonal town name. This will allow you to pick a season or even create the four seasons in your classroom.

This project helps students demonstrate their knowledge in the following:

• parallel lines
• perpendicular lines
• transversal lines
• acute angles
• obtuse angles
• scalene triangle
• equilateral triangle
• isosceles triangle
• quadrilaterals
• z, c, and f patterns creating from transversal lines
• relationships between intersecting lines

There is also a rubric included for assessment purposes. I have used this project with my students and they have always enjoyed it and its quick to mark. Bonus! Students will likely need a couple of classes to complete this assessment and I would recommend having them complete a rough copy first to plan out their town.

Enjoy!

This resource is a self checking task card scavenger hunt that works on measuring angles using the protractor that is lined up on the angles. This resource could be done by students independently or within a group to supplement classroom content, practice for classroom assessments or state tests, or used as used as a review. Students will love the challenge and stay engaged in the task!

Students can begin at any task card; they must write the task card letter in the circle in the first box on the student work page. They complete the equation on that task card and record their work in the box on the work page. They will know that their answer is correct by finding that specific answer in the "Previous Answer" section on another task card. That one would be the next task card in their sequence and they would repeat the process until they have completed all task cards. The last task card should lead them back to the original one that they started with. **If their answer is NOT found on any of the task cards under the "Previous Answer" sections, students will know that their answer is incorrect and they need to try again.

Step by step directions, (with pictures), are included as well as an answer key with every possible correct sequence that students could have depending on which task card they start with.
