Here is a clever, cross-curricular lesson that combines art and geometry. Learners design a painting that uses geometrical shapes and is symmetrical. Sponge-shaped geometrical figures are used to design half a page and fold them to...

Students create tessellations with computer software while applying their knowledge of reflections, rotations, and translations.

In this math worksheet, students use pictures of hands, bears, and cartoon characters to review geometrical terms including reflections and rotations.

Students examine transformations. In this math lesson plan, students view and describe flips, slides, and turns. Students practice making transformations with shapes.

Teach your class about symmetry lines with this resource. This worksheet defines symmetry and explains lines of symmetry and how they work. Learners examine a variety of examples before drawing lines of symmetry in 5 figures. The...

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...

Third graders participate in a game in order to review geometric concepts.

Pupils create different shapes on grid paper.  In this two-dimensional geometry instructional activity, students take turns outlining a shape made of six squares on the graph paper.  They identify all shapes they see once...

Third graders explore the history of tessellations; then use art and geometry to create an original tessellation.

Learners classify, flip, slide, and turn a quantity of quadrilaterals.

In this congruency worksheet, students complete problems dealing with congruent and non-congruent figures. Students complete 5 short answer and multiple choice problems.

What lowercase letters read the same both upside down and right side up? If you have the answer, then you can handle this geometric symmetry math challenge. A one-page activity from the NTCM Math Challenge for Families collection....

Students learn about reflection. An activity, examples, tricks, and a definition are included.
