Geometry: Exploring the Basics is a 43-page ebook by Laura Candler. The lessons and printables are designed to help students master those basic concepts of geometry. You'll find lots of ready-to-use activities and games for introducing lines, line relationships, and simple polygons. You'll also find a variety of review activities and two forms of a simple paper-and-pencil assessment. This book of lesson ideas and printables will help your students build a foundation of geometry basics so they can tackle more complex geometry problems later.
I've always hated teaching geometry. I enjoy stations. So, I used many of the activities in stations, hoping to generate interest from my students and me. They did! I especially like the Geoboard Practice and Tangram Challenges.
