Description
Do you need some new math activities (that include real-world applied math) for your 6th Grade Geometry Unit? Here are 5 ready-to-print math lessons and worksheets that will get your students thinking about how the math they learn in class can be helpful in the real world!
Topics Covered:
- area of triangles
- area of special quadrilaterals
- volume with fractional edge lengths
- drawing polygons on the coordinate plane
- nets
- surface area
What's Included: 5 PDFs Ready to Print and Use! (over 25 pages)
- 1 Set of 5 Math Stations: Area, Perimeter, and Volume: These will get your students working collaboratively as they move around the room and measure a tissue or cereal box, design a cool backyard, and solve word problems.
- 1 Jigsaw Inquiry Activity: Split your class into three groups and each one becomes the expert at explaining one area formula using visuals (triangle, trapezoid, or parallelogram). Then they teach members from the other groups and learn from them too!
- 2 Real-World Applications: Show students how the 6th Grade Geometry skills they are learning are helpful when painting a doghouse or designing a logo for a company.
- 1 Freebie: Another quick inquiry activity will get your students thinking about the relationship between perimeter and area. It's a great review of factors too!
Answer Keys included where applicable. The FREEBIE is a Table of Contents that shows which activity aligns with each Common Core Standard.
Grades to Use With:
These math worksheets and stations are designed to target all of the 6th grade Common Core Standards for Geometry, but they could also work in 7th or 8th grade as review!
