Less than $5 Middle School Geometry Centers (by date, oldest first)

Encourage true understanding of area and perimeter with these no-prep digital and printable task cards.

This project lets students learn about the physics and math behind tensegrity structures as they research and create one with their team. After introducing the lesson with a short video (link included in resources), students work with their team to create a basic tensegrity structure following a short tutorial. Then, utilizing the knowledge gained from this, they build a second tensegrity structure of their choice, utilizing the principles and design ideas of tensegrity. As they work through both builds, they record their information on the included Engineering Design Process Planning Sheet with their team. Next, students present their project to the class and explain their design choices. Finally, students reflect on and summarize their learning with short answers to questions about the experience and what they learned.

This lesson was created for 7th and 8th grade, but could also be used successfully in upper elementary grades or high school as well.

Ce jeu de 52 cartes flash sur les formes et l'espace est conçu pour améliorer la compréhension des concepts géométriques de vos élèves en présentant des problèmes écrits sans nombres, les défiant à associer le langage aux opérations géométriques et aux formules de manière amusante et engageante.

Vos élèves ont-ils du mal avec les problèmes écrits (problèmes écrits) pour identifier quelle opération géométrique utiliser ? J'ai créé cette collection de cartes flash spécifiquement pour aider les élèves à se concentrer sur la reconnaissance des formes et de l'espace ainsi que sur le vocabulaire associé. Comme ces cartes flash mettent l'accent sur le vocabulaire plutôt que sur les valeurs numériques, elles sont idéales pour les élèves de la 4e année et plus, en particulier ceux qui ont du mal à distinguer les différentes opérations géométriques.

Caractéristiques principales :

• Problèmes écrits : Chaque carte flash présente un problème écrit sans valeurs numériques, encourageant les élèves à identifier l'opération géométrique correcte (comme l'aire, le périmètre ou le volume) nécessaire pour le résoudre.
• Utilisation polyvalente : Cet outil pédagogique est hautement adaptable, offrant différentes façons d'engager les élèves. Utilisez-le dans des activités en grand groupe, un jeu des quatre coins en classe, du travail en binôme (en imprimant plusieurs copies), ou en petits groupes.
• Miniature d'affiche ancrée : Une affiche ancrée miniature est incluse, mettant en avant les trois opérations fondamentales sur les formes et l'espace : l'aire, le périmètre et le volume. Cette affiche sert de référence pratique pour les élèves, leur permettant de travailler sur les cartes flash de manière autonome.
• Clé de réponse : Pour plus de commodité, une clé de réponse est fournie afin de vérifier rapidement et évaluer les réponses des élèves.

Pourquoi choisir les cartes flash sur les opérations et les problèmes écrits ?

• Apprentissage amélioré : En se concentrant sur les problèmes écrits, les élèves développent une compréhension plus approfondie des concepts mathématiques et renforcent leurs compétences en résolution de problèmes.
• Association du langage : Les élèves apprennent à associer des indices linguistiques spécifiques à l'opération mathématique correspondante, renforçant ainsi leur compréhension et leurs capacités d'application.
• Engagement interactif : Le caractère interactif de ces cartes flash rend l'apprentissage des mathématiques agréable et interactif, favorisant une attitude positive envers les défis mathématiques.

Students need to know how to sort 2D shapes and identify the name of each figure. This interactive activity meant to help your kids understand how we classify shapes into categories based on their attributes, an interactive notebook made different! A cut and paste activity for 2D shapes that helps students review different properties of shapes. Using groups and subgroups instead of arrows will help kids see the relationship between shapes more clearly.

Please see the preview as it is exactly what you will receive in your download.

This no prep hands-on activity is great for use as printable cut and paste center or practice activity. Just print and go!

Or you can laminate the graphic organizer + the shapes and use it as a group activity.

Shapes included:

• Non-Polygons: Circle, Moon shape, Heart, ...
• Triangles: Equilateral, isosceles, scalene, acute, right, obtuse, Right and isosceles.
• Quadrilaterals: Square, rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram, trapezoid, kite.
• More than 4 sides: Pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, Octagon.

I created two versions of this sheet colored and black.

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.

This 3D shapes puzzle is a fun way to test students recognition of 3D shapes, complete with their properities. Students match the image of a shape with the name, its properties of number of faces, vertices & edges, and a possible net.

18 shapes are included: Sphere, Cube, Cuboid (two versions), Square Based Pyramid, Cylinder, Cone, Regular Tetrahedron, Hexagonal Prism, Triangular Prism, Irregular Pentagonal Prism, Hemisphere, Square Pyramidal Frustum, Conical Frustum, Dodecahedron, Icosehedron, Irregular Tetrahedron and Octahedron.

Two versions are included; one where the 3D shapes are solid, and another where the 3D shapes are wire frames so students can see the number of edges etc. This is also a good option for using less ink when printing.

It is designed to be easily cut with little wastage. So either the teacher or tutor can prepare the cards by cutting them before hand, or students can cut their own cards, giving them a chance to see the solutions before they attempt the puzzle.

Although this product is made in colour, it prints perfectly well in black and white.
