Connect the Dots to Make Lines
In this line printing worksheet, students connect the dots from the number 1 to the number 2 to draw two vertical lines and two horizontal lines.
Curated OER
Symmetry
Sixth graders explore symmetry and discuss the difference between a rotation and reflection. Using hands-on activities, such as folding paper shapes, they discover how to find the lines of symmetry and symmetrical characteristics. As a...

Dropping-in a Line
Students read any play (A Midsummer Night's Dream, for example.) They participate in a teacher-led relaxation exercise designed to help the students review specific lines from the play. They write about the experience and answer other...
Curated OER
Discovering Art - Scott Gallery: Line
Students study how line is used in art. They identify horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines in artwork. They view the painting, The Western Brothers, and identify the line the dog makes and the position of the boy's arm. They discuss...
Curated OER
Exploring Geometric Patterns and Relationships
Sixth graders explore different geographic relationships in like drawing lines, rays, and parallelograms. This lesson could be used for review because it covers more than one concept. The students should have prior knowledge.

Geometry: Lesson 1: Points, Lines, Segments, Angles
Fourth graders examine the concepts of, draw, and label points, lines, segments, and angles, They draw, label, and identify horizontal, vertical, intersecting, parallel, and perpendicular lines. They complete an associated worksheet that...
Curated OER
Geometry on a Grand Scalle
Students, in groups, construct different angles and shapes on a large scale using string and chalk.
Curated OER
Lots of Lines
Students see that artists make many different kinds of lines. They discuss how artists use line to show ideas such as motion, mood, or emphasis and identify different kinds of lines in a variety of artworks and their environment.
Curated OER
Rock It
Students dance in lines to "Baby Likes to Rock It" by The Tractors. They begin to learn dance formation: Lines or scattered facing same direction, and learn counts while rocking out to country music.
Curated OER
Lines, Rays, Line Segments, and Planes
Students are introduced to lines, rays, line segments and planes and study the differences between them. They also practice graphing lines, rays, line segments and planes
Curated OER
Geometry in Tessellations
Students examine tessellations and their geometric properties. Students also develop a better understanding of lines, planes, angles, and polygons.
