In this symmetry worksheet, students identify and circle the shapes that are symmetrical in a set. There are four multiple choice questions.

In this language arts worksheet, students study 5 words in a word bank and locate them in a word search puzzle. The words pertain to geometry; the meaning of the title is unknown.

In this math worksheet, learners examine 4 pictures of 3D objects and write the name of each. Students then study 3 pictures and figure the number of faces, edges and vertices on each.

An ancient puzzle game meets a modern implementation. Challenge mathematicians of all ages with this mind-bending geometric puzzle game. 

Evaluate young mathematicians' understanding of area and perimeter with this series of three assessment tasks. Challenging learners to not only calculate the area and perimeter of irregular shapes, but to explain in writing their...

Students identify geometric patterns in quilts. In this geometry lesson, students view various types of quilts and identify the geometric shapes. Students construct one hundred patch paper quilts using geometric shapes.

Students scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...

Students construct a variety of four-sided figures using a K'NEX Geometry Set. They view and discuss pictures of shapes, then in small groups they construct as many four-sided shapes as possible using the K'NEX Rods and Connectors. As a...

Students study quilts. In this history/geometry quilt activity, students discover the history behind quilt making and get a chance to make quilt blocks of their own. They work independently to make a quilt block out of construction paper...

Students identify nonstandard units of measurement and investigate area of objects. In this geometry lesson, students trace their hands and glue cereal pieces to the print to find the area.

Students investigate shapes and sizes by creating a riddle.  For this geometry lesson, students read one of two books and investigate facts about an object's size.  Students write a riddle using the facts they have read and cut...

Students explore how an archaeologist works and makes discoveries. In this archaeology lesson plan, students participate in a simulation in which they excavate broken pottery. Students use measurement, geometry, and observation skills...

Shape shifters recognize characteristics of polygons. Embracing language arts skills in addition to math, they use a thesaurus to pinpoint specific attributes of a set of polygons. They also participate in a 21-question guessing game...

Students identify symmetry in shapes. In this geometry lesson, students fold paper to identify lines of symmetry. Students create various symmetrical shapes using folded paper.

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

Students explore "area."  In this tangram geometry and measurement instructional activity, students arrange tangram pieces to find the area of characters presented in a story they listen to on a website.  Website information...

Young scholars recognize and identify shapes in their environment. They investigate why objects can be composed of several different shapes. They follow a pattern to recreate designs using various shapes.

Young scholars 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...

Learners take an Internet field trip to research fractions. ESOL strategies include using pattern block manipulatives and pairing ESOL and non-ESOL students on computers.

Students show the correlation between quadrilaterals, parallelograms, rectangles and squares.

Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students explore the concept of tessellations and lines, planes, angles, and polygons. Students experiment with the area and perimeter of polygons. Students analyze...

Third graders describe and compare attributes of two-dimensional shapes. They explain geometric terms, angles and shapes. Students demonstrate each vocabulary word with their body and they mirror the body positions associated with each...

Students examine geometric shapes. In this geometric shape lesson plan, students examine how geometric shapes flip, turn, and slide to create a pattern. Students analyze the role that quilts played in helping slaves escape to freedom. ...

Students describe, draw, and classify shapes. They use the internet to research the X-36 aircraft. Students identify the geometric shapes in the aircraft. They calculate the number of sides in an x-36.
