Curated OER
Polygons
Second graders view a PowerPoint presentation on Identifying Polygons by their number of sides and their individual properties. They separate polygon tiles into groups by their attributes.
Curated OER
Polygons
Students work together to create mobiles with different polygons. They research the polygon and list its characteristics. They may present to the class if they chose to.
Curated OER
Tunnel Traps
Students identify shapes that match specific shape descriptions involving a range of geometric terms and correct polygon names. They utilize a mathematics educational software program to gain practice.
Curated OER
Around and Around We Go
Fourth graders discover that a polygon is a closed figure formed by line segments, and that the perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the lengths of its sides. They utilize a worksheet imbedded in this plan to gain lots of practice with...
