Third graders investigate shapes in our world. In this geometry lesson, 3rd graders describe plane and solid shapes and identify angles, solid objects and lines of symmetry. Students use online resources, graphic organizers and conduct...

Students analyze tessellations.  In this geometry lesson, students discover which shapes can or cannot be used to create a tessellation.  Students watch a video, then create their own tessellations.

In this math learning exercise, students investigate simple geometric shapes in the world around them. Students examine 3 detailed pictures which contain many shapes, then answer 7 questions about the picture. Then students complete a...

In this drawing the shapes worksheet, students read the shape names in each square and draw the geometric shapes. Students draw six shapes.

Young scholars identify and name different geometrical shapes. In this math lesson, students distinguish odd from even numbers. They describe the properties of 2 and 3 dimensional objects.

Learners of all ages investigate area and perimeter through pentominoes. In this geometry lesson plan, young scholars calculate the are and perimeter of different geometric shapes and describe the properties of similar and congruent...

Develop an understanding of algebraic sequences through an exploration of patterns. Five leveled problems target grade levels from elementary through high school. Each problem asks young mathematicians to recognize a geometric pattern....

Use the alphabet as a tool for teaching your class about geometric figures. Break apart capital letters into line segments and arcs. Classify angles as right, acute, or obtuse. Identify parallel and perpendicular lines. An excellent...

Students explore tessellations. In this shapes and geometry lesson, students describe the attributes of many of the shapes displayed on an Elmo. Students create examples of tessellations using pattern blocks.

Learners find out the meaning for prefixes used in math vocabulary. By dissecting words used in everyday math, they figure out what the prefix indicates and what the word means. A variety of well-organized worksheets and activities...

Learners read the book The Math Curse by Jon Scieszka and study geometry. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify geometric shapes and their properties. Learners create a geo-critter.

Pupils create a Holocaust memorial. In this interdisciplinary lesson, students use geometric shapes or forms to create a Holocaust monument.

Students research tall buildings and identify the geometric shapes used in the construction of the buildings. They compare shapes and infer why some are better than others in building. They produce a multimedia presentation of geometric...

Students practice their logical thinking skills. In this reasoning lesson, students complete tasks involving geometric shapes, place value, and odd/even numbers.

In this patterns activity, students examine five strips of geometric shapes and then decide which of two shapes at the end is the next one to follow each pattern.

In this patterns worksheet, students examine five strips of geometric shapes and then decide which shape out of two shown at the end should follow at the end of each strip.

In this geometric shapes practice activity, learners examine 7 shapes on the left side of the page and match them with congruent shapes on the right side of the page. An example is included.

In this geometric shapes activity, students analyze an intricate design of lines. Students look for all the triangles and tell how many there are.

In this geometry skills worksheet, students examine 6 shapes and identify each of the shapes as either open shapes or closed shapes.

Students explore geometry by completing a color puzzle. In this shape identification lesson plan, students utilize deductive reasoning to complete a Google SketchUp puzzle with trapezoid, triangles and rectangular shapes. Students...

In this geometry worksheet, students study diagrams with labels of common geometric figures. Students then answer 24 questions. Then they draw and label their own figures.

In this quadrilaterals worksheet, learners identify shapes and their properties. In this problem solving worksheet, students answer fourteen questions.

Students reconstruct an ancient Greek sculpture using various geometric forms and explore different geometric forms. They create an abstract human form out of geometric shapes and create other representations out of the same shapes.

Learners explore characteristics of geometric shapes. They observe geometric shapes and forms in public sculpture. Students create a unique sculpture of their own using basic three dimensional shapes. Additional cross curriculum...
