Explore vocabulary related to three-dimensional shapes. An instructional website describes the characteristics of different geometric solids. Learners can use an interactive component to view nets, faces, vertices, and edges of common...

Budding artists or mathematicians read about,and then draw, two very different shapes. Geometric and organic 2-D shapes are defined. Learners use the definitions to draw examples of each.

How do you get a theorem named after you? Euler knows what it takes! The third lesson of five asks pupils to use an interactive activity to compare the faces, vertices, and edges of seven different three-dimensional solids. They use...

From polyhedrons to platonic solids, here is a lesson that will have your classes talking! As an introduction to platonic solids, scholars cut and fold nets to create the three-dimensional solids. They use an interactive component to...

Here is a guide for your middle schoolers to use while you are providing a lecture on the basics of art. They use this worksheet to aid them as they take notes on the purpose of art, art elements, properties of art, and art principles....

Discover different dimensions with paper folding. Pupils first read about zero, one, two, and three dimensions, and then learn about the fourth dimension, time. They then use origami to create models of shapes in three dimensions and use...

This two-part reading comprehension exercise asks kids to read a short passage about cubes, rectangular prisms, spheres and pyramids, and then to respond to a series of questions about the article.

Whether you wrap it or fill it, you're using geometric concepts. Classmates use an interactive approach to learn how to find volume and surface area of cylinders and prisms in the second lesson in a five-part series. The online lesson...

Time to find out what they've learned! The final lesson of a five-part series has learners complete a 39-question multiple choice review. They use what they've learned in the previous lessons to complete questions that include concepts...

In this 4-H line and design activity, students will complete a variety of design related activities. Students will use colored pencils to draw in the missing pieces of artistic photographs. Next, they will find and circle 6 art words in...

For this art worksheet, students read a 1 page article on the history or art, prepare their background to making a collage, gather basic shapes, create their collage and then add in the finishing touches to them.

In this geometry and art learning exercise, 3rd graders trace and cut out a cubic net to fold and glue together to learn about the dynamics of three-dimensional figures and shapes.

Set your pupils up to start on geometry by teaching them some introductory terminology. Pupils learn the terms by reading a short passage and looking at examples. They then respond to five questions related to the text.

With photography as the focus, students learn about line and design. Learners take pictures, and use the photos as a means to analyze artistic elements.

In this permutations worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 5 different types of problems. First, they write a simple conceptual art plan with no more than 3 instructions. Then, students use graph paper and a pencil to draw a plan....

An architectural modeling instructional activity that first demonstrates how architects combine forms to create buildings and then provides instructions for building architectural models. Includes links to architectural terms and to...

In this lesson, students will create a shape mobile of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional shapes made from geometric shapes.

This online dictionary of art from Artlex provides terms is a valuable tool. Shape is on the Sg-Sh page. Just scroll down to Shape and read a definition with links to other important terms.

The dynamics of shape in art and the relationship of shape with the other elements of art. The effects of angles and lines on perception.
