Expose youngsters to 3-D objects in a hands-on learning activity involving marshmallows and toothpicks. Engage your young mathematicians by introducing them to 3-D shapes by means of a story book. Explore 3-D shapes by manipulating...

Staying organized is a part of growing up, and it can be as easy as making a list. Here is a set of instructions for making a three-dimensional task list especially for learners with visual impairments or blindness. After making the task...

Learners investigate cubes. In this geometric solids lesson, students review geometric concepts previously taught, then logon to a computer game in which they find cube figures and identify the shadow of hidden cubes.

Fifth graders draw 2-D and 3-D shapes. They sketch and label geometric figures with correct terminology, then explore parallel and perpendicular lines. Pupils sort and classify shapes drawn.

Organization is of the utmost importance when teaching orientation and mobility to learners with visual impairments. To help keep everything in order and provide independence, use these instructions for making a desk organizer. The...

Young scholars construct polygons. They identify attributes of three-dimensional shapes. Students name common three-dimensional shapes. They draw three-dimensional shapes, and sort three-dimensional shapes. Young scholars use K'NEX...

Compare two- and three-dimensional shapes and construct three dimensional models from two-dimensional shapes. Diagram the shapes and reflect about the process in writing.

Students use specific dimensions to create a box. In this geometry lesson plan, students analyze the different properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They make conjectures and use it to solve problems.

Students identify and interpret the function, usefulness or utitlity, form, beauty or aesthetics, and meaning, context or story, of objects and how they learn new skills and make things that they learn traditionally, by observation and...

Learners use manipulatives to study shapes. They sort shapes and use correct geometric terminology to describe them. Learners find real-life examples of 2 and 3 dimensional shapes, and classify figures in their classroom according to...

Students identify the parts of three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson, students find the number of faces, edges and vertices. They differentiate between prisms and polyhedra.

Third graders explore vocabulary associated with three dimensional figures.  In this transformations lesson, 3rd graders create two dimensional nets for three dimensional figures.  Students become familiar with describing two...

Make sure your Spanish language learners can name everything you point to in the classroom by asking them to practice with these worksheets. Included here are 11 different exercises that focus on acquiring classroom-related vocabulary....

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.

Third graders describe 2D and 3D shapes. In this geometry lesson, 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 have in...

Learners investigate circles and spheres. In this space shapes lesson, students compare and contrast two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes. Learners investigate the relationship between plane and space shapes.

Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...

A simple set of practice sheets deals with sentence structure and patterns. The 117-page packet includes 10 units of skills, varying from identifying parts of speech in a sentence to writing the correct part to make a sentence...

Students 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...

Define and identify the three basic forms of symmetry translation, rotation, and glides with your class. They cut out and arrange paper pattern blocks to illustrate symmetry, create a Cartesian graph, and design a rug with a symmetrical...

Students explore pyramids. In this math activity, students discuss where they have seen examples of pyramids. Students classify pyramids as three-dimensional figures and identify their attributes.

Early readers play a board game to practice segmenting phonemes. Players determine how many spaces to move by choosing a picture, saying the object's name on the card, then counting the phonemes they say.

Surprise! is the theme of a unit covering such topics as consonants, blending, short vowels sounds, high frequency words, and number words. The unit's lessons also include teachable moments covering story structure, illustrations,...

Young scholars identify and match pictures of three dimensional shapes while playing a board game with peers. They take turns with their partners in spinning the spinner and moving to the next space on the game board that shows the same...
