Geometry - Graphing Special Lines-Parallel and Perpendicular-Two Investigations
This activity contains two investigations. First Investigation:• On the graph provided, students graph each of the pairs of points and draw a line through the pair of points.• The students study the two lines and conjecture that the two lines are parallel.• Then the students find the slope of the two given lines to notice that when the lines were parallel the slope of the two lines are equal.• Students repeat these three steps with four more points. • After students know that two parallel lines

Geometry - Area and Perimeter - An Exploration on the Geoboard
This activity is designed to be used with a geoboard (11 x 11 pegs). An alternative for geoboards is included in this package (index size cards with 11 x 11 geoboards). Students explore the meaning of perimeter and area by constructing polygons on the geoboard with rubber bands or drawing line segments that represent the rubber bands on the index size cards. The activity can also be used with Communicator Clearboards, available from Educator's Outlet and a copy of a student grid. After the st

Generating Pythagorean Triplets
This activity will guide students in creating three charts of more than 60 Pythagorean Triplets, which are sets of three integers that satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem. Once you see the pattern you will be able to generate even more Pythagorean Triplets.Students look for a pattern in the first chart to notice that the first integer is an odd number and the other two sum up to the square of the odd number.The triplets in this first chart also follow an algebraic pattern.The next chart has tripl
