Third graders describe 2D and 3D shapes. In this geometry lesson plan, 3rd graders watch a PowerPoint presentation showing the terms used when analyzing shapes: vertex, edge, angle, side, and face. They compare shapes to see what they...

Three, two, one...liftoff! Elevate math skills to new heights while having a blast. A great resource that combines entertainment and education for children of all ages.

Can we learn a thing or two about history by looking at pictures from the past? As young historians view 2-D and 3-D primary source photographs, they respond to a series of worksheets that guides them toward unveiling clues...

Seventh graders investigate the area and volume of 2D and 3D figures. For this geometry lesson, 7th graders create a storyboard explaining their knowledge of 2D and 3D shapes. They analyze their data and interpret their...

Discover the difference between standard and non-standard units of measure with your class. They differentiate between rectangles and squares, read a book, measure a peer's height. They then discuss  measurement methods, make...

Students explore geometric solids. In this geometry lesson, students listen to the book The Greedy Triangle by Marilyn Burns, then work in groups to sort geometric solids into various categories. Students define geometric solids...

Young scholars examine two- and three-dimensional shapes and figures. Individually, they practice identifying the shape from various viewpoints. By completing this activity, they develop a spatial sense about how figures and shapes are...

Twelfth graders examine different dimensions and units which go with a particular dimension. They explore the concept of linear measurement versus area. Students estimate area of 3-D objects. They practice converting from one unit of...
