In this area and perimeter instructional activity, 10th graders solve 10 different problems that include various figures shown. First, they determine the area of triangles, parallelograms, and trapezoids in each box. Then, students...

In this shape coloring instructional activity, students color the squares red, the circles blue, and the triangles green. There are 9 shapes on this page to color.

In this area worksheet, students find the area of ten figures that are drawn on a coordinate grid. Five of the shapes are triangles. Five shapes are irregular quadrilaterals.

In this transformations and congruence activity, 10th graders solve and complete 5 different types of problems. First, they calculate the length of a line giving their answer in 3 significant figures. Then, students prove that two...

In this geometry worksheet, young mathematicians apply the formulas for the area and perimeter of polygons and circles to solve a variety of skills practice and problem-solving questions.

Students identify diagrams of quadrilaterals and circles by different names and classify the figures. They name the areas for each diagram and practice solving the formulas for each.

Youngsters recognize that triangles can be combined together to make various shapes. The learning activity provides a series of seven steps that engage children in applying transformations to triangles. Pupils use a quilt template and...

In this quilt patterns worksheet, 7th graders identify and complete 6 different problems that include various patterns using shapes. First, they fill the square with the polygons listed on the left as stated. Then, students use...

In this measurement lesson, learners examine the Pythagorean Theorem, perimeter, and areas of right triangles. They record their measurements and research their findings on a grid.

What shape do I see? Pupils will use what they know about geometric figures to determine which shape is hidden behind the squares. The shapes identified in the game: square, triangle, hexagon, and decagon. This is a great warm-up activity.

Triangles, circles, and rectangles are featured in a colorful, one-page worksheet that defines and illustrates these shapes. Read the explanations with your first graders and have them count the number of shapes in a given box. Since the...

What are these shapes? Learners examine pairs of six familiar shapes: circle, oval, triangle, hexagon, square, and rectangle. Each pair is placed together because of a common attribute, which is described above. Learners name the...

Kindergartners demonstrate their ability to identify seven different shapes by labeling each of the 28 examples on the worksheet. Learners must be able to identify rectangles, diamonds, squares, ovals, triangles, circles, and pentagons.

A hands-on activity uses the Zome modeling system, and helps young geometers either learn or review their knowledge of polygons. Young scholars build as many different 2-dimensional polygons as possible: triangle, square, rectangle,...

Looking for a quick introduction or review for area formulas?  Terminology and formulas for the area of squares, rectangles and triangles is presented. Connections with exponents and the Pythagorean Theorem are demonstrated.

Students explore characteristics of shapes by making and using tangram sets. They discover how the tangram pieces are related to one another, and determine how many different combinations of the triangles, squares, and parallelograms in...

Which is heavier, a ladybug or a ship? Learners will have fun with this weight comparison instructional activity, that uses visuals to help them determine which is heavier or lighter. They complete two comparisons for each. Lastly, they...

Fourth graders use triangle paper to design patterns using geometric figures and find the areas of those figures by counting units. Students are assessed by determining which figure has the greatest area and explaining their reasoning.

Shapes are all around us! Kindergartenrs identify shapes in their world and guess the shape being described. They participate in a shape hunt.

This colorful set of shapes and figures is the data set learners need to fill out an extensive table. For each of 11 types of shapes or figures they record the quantity and how many corners and sides each has. This becomes more difficult...
