Geometric patterns illuminate this colorful and interactive PowerPoint. First, patterns must be identified. Next, students discern the missing color in a block pattern. Lastly, they observe a figure to determine how many blocks are used....

Students investigate measurement through the use of literature through this series of lessons.

Young scholars identify and explore the attributes of polygons. They design and create a quilt square using polygons, and produce a class quilt.

Third graders explore 3-D materials by making a macquette that could be used for a playgroup sculpture. The students design and execute papier-mâché dinosaurs. They develop painting skills and connect art to science.

Students explore line(s) of symmetry in polygons during a hands-on activity and a Student Web Lesson. They build a wall of symmetrical shapes designed and drawn by students.

Fifth graders explore angles by using protractors. They recognize, describe and determine the surface area and volume of three-dimensional shapes. Students recognize the right angle, acute angle, obtuse angle and vertex. They identify...

In this geometry worksheet, students study diagrams with labels of common geometric figures. Students then answer 24 questions. Then they draw and label their own figures.

Prisms are the focus of this geometry worksheet. Students count the number of parts of a prism and chart 26 answers. Vocabulary such as: "faces," "edges," and "verticies" are taught. A well-designed math worksheet!

It's time for a geometry warm up! Geometry scholars examine a figure to determine its name from a list of four choices. The figure, a trapezoid, is large enough for the whole class to see if you were to project this. An explanation at...

Middle schoolers investigate the concept of two dimensional polygons. They complete a vocabulary chart with the teacher or in independently. Students are shown various polygons in order to classify them and then asked to draw one of them...

Students recognize the following formal elements om art: visual and tactile texture; shape or contour; value. They create a 2-D or 3-D work of art that embodies this element strongly.

In this shapes instructional activity, students are asked to "colour" all of the triangles they find on the page. There are 10 shapes on the page and 4 are triangles. The second page contains suggestions for teachers on activities with...

In this grade 3 math worksheet, students complete a total of 10 questions that use a variety of grade 3 concepts. Page is part of a site with links. 

Third graders examine two-dimensional objects and create a 3-D image of the object. They make models of the Taj Mahal and buildings in Delhi.

In this science review for grade 3 (3.1) worksheet, 3rd graders answer 25 multiple choice questions about earth science in standardized test format.

Third graders incorporate math into dancing. In this algebra lesson, 3rd graders identify different shapes and patterns using dance movements. They relate the different creations to polygons as they incorporate the use of stretchy bands...

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

Here is a instructional activity containing a great activity based on coordinates, and the perimeters of shapes created using a given set of coordinates. After youngsters creat a shape on a grid based on some coordinate pairs, they must...

Third graders engage in an enrichment instructional activity exploring the concepts of area and perimeter. They construct new pentominoes that are 3 times the size of normal ones and then identify the area and perimeter measurements....

In this math worksheet, middle schoolers find the areas for the shapes. They apply the appropriate formula for each shape that is drawn and in the word problems.

Students create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.

Identify the nets for prisms and other geometric shapes. Learners calculate the surface area of the rectangular prism then sketch the shapes of prisms and other polygons. Unfolded cereal boxes are used as a visual aid, great idea!

Students walk around the neighborhood and identify various polygons and lines in buildings, nature and other objects. They design a building using various geometric patterns, shapes and lines. Students complete a descriptive writing of...

Elementary math classes calculate the area of a shape and explain the correlation between the size of the perimeter and the areas that can be contained within that perimeter. They also explain the effect the shape of the perimeter has on...
