Young mathematicians rotate, flip, and sort their way to an understanding of the different attributes of geometric figures. Using transparent yellow and blue shapes, children try to match congruent figures together...

Excellent lesson! Anne Linehane's geometry story, The Greedy Triangle, offers an opportunity to practice forming various types of polygons with your learners. Using elastic bands (or Chinese jump ropes),...

Students explore geometric shapes.  In this kindergarten geometry lesson, students create a fall quilt consisting of three different paper geometric quilt squares that when assembled form a scarecrow, a pumpkin, and a crow. ...

Kindergartners listen to a story read by their teacher, then use magnetic shape pieces to construct simple designes. They "build" their own house using pre-cut paper shapes. This age-appropriate lesson would be an excellent choice for...

Fifth graders explore geometry by creating shapes with construction paper. For this shape characteristics lesson, 5th graders identify the different attributes that make up specific shapes and create them using construction paper,...

Young scholars explore geometry by participating in a shape identification activity. In this figure dimensions lesson plan, students identify the difference between 2 and 3 dimensional shapes by their vertices and faces. Young scholars...

Students view a right triangle displayed by the teacher. Students measure legs and the interior angles of the triangle. They look for a pattern or relationship between the legs and angles. Students use pegboards and string to create more...

Tenth graders plot points on a coordinate plane. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders identify the different quadrants, plots points on a number line and coordinate plane and solve for the midpoint of line segments.

Students identify the different properties of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between polygons and non-polygons. They review important vocabulary to help them understand the properties of polygons.
