Geometry and Measurement resources

Students make a series of rotational turns based on compass positions.

Students calculate the perimeter and area of three composite shapes.

Students write short paragraphs using geometrical terms to describe two pictures. The terms equilateral, scalene, and isosceles are to be used to describe a castle. The words circumference, diameter, and radius are to be used to describe a bicycle.

Students identify the picture of a cat which best shows each of four described transformations of the original cat.

Students enlarge shapes by whole number scale factors.

The context for this task is a grid-referenced map of historical sites. Students locate items at three grid references then write the grid references for all the castles on the map.

Students answer questions about perimeter and length of square and rectangle shapes.

Students calculate the weight for different numbers of soccer balls and calculate the weight for a given number of soccer balls.

Students calculate the shapes with the largest and smallest perimeter and identify a relationship between the features of a shape and the perimeter.

Students answer four multiple-choice questions about volume and surface area.

Students interpret a work schedule to answer questions about starting, finishing, and the total number of hours worked.

Students write the bearing and distance of a number of objects on a radar screen.

In this practical task, students construct 3-dimensional shapes from nets (provided), and then draw them on a grid.

Students convert units of weight - milligram, gram, kilogram, and tonne, in order to answer questions about potatoes.

In this practical task, students cut out shapes and combine them to make a shape with the largest perimeter, and calculate the perimeter and area.

Students identify the angle of different objects and movements.

Students identify points on a circular grid using references that give distance and direction (expressed in clock bearings).

Students select the correct name for regular quadrilateral shapes.

Students draw reflections of an object with a mirror line.

Students identify which transformations could have been used one shape onto another.

Students add up the times for a number of exercises to get the total.

Students work out starting and finishing times, and how long events take.

For this NEMP task students use a protractor to measure how many degrees two boats turn as they change course.

Students calculate the distance around three different sized gardens.

Students calculate the length of fencing around a deck.
