This presentation is intended to accompany an entire unit and covers a wide variety of concepts. Counting on, counting back, symmetry, properties of 2-D shapes, completing symmetrical patterns, and measuring angles are all covered.

Do these dotted lines indicate symmetry? Some of them do, and scholars determine which ones in 12 different images. Because some of these are tricky, it may be helpful to have large versions of these shapes printed and cut out. This way,...

Explore polygons with your elementary learners. Divide the class in 12 to configure the polygon puzzle before them. They list the attributes of each type of polygon they see, and if there's time, they jump on the interactive website...

Students practice drawing lines of symmetry after the teacher draws shapes on the board. They create a class symme"tree" using only symmetrical shapes to decorate it.

Students explore line(s) of symmetry in polygons during a hands-on activity and a Student Web Lesson. They build a wall of symmetrical shapes designed and drawn by students.

Fourth graders identify lines of symmetry using reflections and then construct figures that have one or more lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson plan, 4th graders use sets of shapes, pattern blocks, a mirror, and more.

In this line of symmetry worksheet, students follow a set of instructions to create a symmetrical shape, and color correct numbers of dominoes to make symmetrical sets. Answers are included.

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...

In this symmetry instructional activity, students look at 12 pictures. Students circle all the pictures that are symmetrical, and cross out all the ones that are not.

For this problem solving worksheet, 4th graders figure out how many lines of symmetry 6 Greek alphabet letters have. Students write each number and draw the line or lines on the lines provided.

A variety of activities take scholars outside the classroom to explore shapes, symmetry, measurement, patterns, sorting, and time in nature. Learners participate individually, and in teams, to measure found objects, go on a...

In this geometry skills practice worksheet, students examine 3 images and determine whether or not they have rotational symmetry.

Fourth graders examine mirror symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, 4th graders discover that symmetry is not always vertical or horizontal. Students cut and fold shapes along lines of symmetry.

In this lines of symmetry worksheet, students check yes or no after determining whether diagrams show lines of symmetry. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Your Spanish students will see what symmetry looks like on a quadrilateral, triangle, and circle  in this presentation. Large, bright shapes are displayed with lines of symmetry, followed by examples that do not show a line of...

Is this the line of symmetry? Scholars analyze 12 images to determine whether or not the dotted line in each reflects symmetry. There are three examples for them to reference before they start, so consider reviewing these together before...

A very clever marriage of social studies and math is offered in this presentation. Young mathematicians look at slides of a variety of flags of the world and try to find the line of symmetry in each. A clever way to practice symmetry!

In this lines of symmetry worksheet, students draw lines of symmetry on each letter of the alphabet given on the page. A reference web site is included.

In this line symmetry reteaching worksheet, 4th graders determine which letters of the alphabet display a line of symmetry. They compare to lines drawn through 4 letters and circle the one that shows symmetry. They draw one or two lines...

Enhance your geometry lesson by working with shapes. Fourth graders follow lines of symmetry to complete ten shapes, most of them currently triangles. Have pupils color each half of their shapes to reinforce the idea of symmetry!

In need of a fun way to define an isosceles triangle? This activity has learners fold a paper in half and then cut it to create an isosceles triangle. They determine the line of symmetry by folding the triangle in half and then use the...

Make a splash with a math skills resource! Starring characters from the children's story Mystery of the Muddled Marsh, several worksheets create interdisciplinary connections between science, language arts, and math. They...

Challenge your geometry class with this connect-the-dots activity! Scholars use a ruler to complete simple shapes through connecting dots in 6 shape-identification problems, and identify it from 4 choices: triangle, square, rectangle, or...
