Students explore various polygons and examine how shapes can be manipulated in a variety of ways. In this shape tool instructional activity, students identify geometric shapes in two dimensions. Students identify and draw one line...

Make origami ducks with your class to reinforce geometry concepts and vocabulary; develop fine motor and visual translation skills; and enrich study of Japanese culture, the pond habitat, or migration. Create a whole group "worksheet"...

Students investigate the concept of line symmetry and how to recognize it in different contexts. They record the number of symmetries when given problems to work on in class. They review the concept of congruence and how it relates to...

Students use a software program to create artwork and to manipulate images to study mirror and rotational symmetry. They take pictures of items in their environment in which they identify symmetry.

Students discuss and study the word symmetry. They examine letters of the alphabet, shapes, and artwork and decide if they are symmetrical or not. Then they create their own symmetry monsters.

Fourth graders create a dance with a partner that shows parallel and perpendicular lines. For this lines lesson plan, 4th graders create symmetrical designs and line pairs with their partner.

In this symmetry activity, students fill in the shapes with pattern blocks to create a design so the dotted line is one of symmetry. Students trace and label each pattern and then explain how they know the design has a line of symmetry.

Students examine the concepts of geometry used by Paul Goble in his book Adopted By The Eagles. After analyzing Mr. Goble's work they create an original piece featuring symmetry, pattern, repetition, and other principles of geometry....

In this symmetry worksheet, students put organisms into categories of having line symmetry or rotational symmetry and answer questions about them. Students put 8 organisms into the chart and answer 3 questions.

Learners explore the concept of symmetry by drawing an the other half of an object. They pick from a stack of magazine pictures and draw it on another piece of paper.

Create geometric cups by interpreting directions, informational text, and mathematical concepts. Critical thinkers apply geometric theory (congruent shapes, patterns, symmetry) to actual directions to create a cup that holds Kool Aid....

In this symmetry and translation instructional activity, learners sketch the reflection of the shapes in the mirror lines. There are 6 shapes to sketch.

In this symmetry and translation worksheet, students sketch the reflection of the shapes in the mirror lines. There are 6 shapes to sketch.

Introduce youngsters to the important role shape and form play in art with this extensive collection of activities and projects. From teaching first graders how to create mandalas to engaging third and fourth graders in the design...

Students examine lines of symmetry with different shapes. Then students create their own books of symmetry with different two-dimensional shapes on each page.

For this symmetry worksheet, learners study the pictures in the 14 examples. Students then draw a line of symmetry for each object.

In this symmetry problem solving worksheet, students sharpen their math skills as they read 4 word problems and draw or write to explain their answers.

Young scholars explore the architecture of New England by identifying geometric shapes.  In this architectural lesson, students examine photographs of classic building architecture and use a transparency to trace geometric shapes...

In this mirror lines and symmetry worksheet, students solve 12 problems in which lines of symmetry are drawn and counted. This page is intended to be an online activity, but can be completed on paper.

Students examine the concept of symmetry. They use photographs in front of a mirror to see symmetry. They write an explanation or drawing of how a mirror always produces a line of symmetry.

This art lesson seems simple enough. As a way to introduce radial symmetry, spokes, or rays, learners create an artistic representation demonstrating radial symmetry. They stick a variety of letter stickers on their paper starting in the...

In this math learning exercise, students examine the shapes given in two dimensions. They determine which ones are symmetrical to each other.

Young scholars observe butterfly images and then draw and paint their own design. They use this activity to explain symmetry.

In this math worksheet, 4th graders complete a quick math sheet to review solving for a number that is missing in a number sentence. Then, they identify which drawing best represents a line of symmetry. Finally, students calculate how...
