Students 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 shape.

Students examine works of art that convey the idea of working together and analyze how artists use foreground, middle ground, and background. They use two-and three-dimensional materials to create a work of art.

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...

Build on your learners' previous knowledge of geometric shapes and symmetrical figures. Then set them out to take photos of geometric shapes on campus. They assess whether the photos contain symmetry or not. 

First graders identify geometric solids. In this shapes and solids beginning geometry lesson plan, 1st graders reach into a bag and identify the geometric solid they feel. Students describe shape attributes and match two dimensional...

In this parallelepiped figures worksheet, students problem solve and calculate the measurements of ten parallelepiped three-dimensional figures involving volume.

This two-part reading comprehension exercise asks kids to read a short passage about cubes, rectangular prisms, spheres and pyramids, and then to respond to a series of questions about the article.

Demonstrate and discuss the three types of transformations: rotation, reflection, and translation. Participate in a game which helps to reinforce and practice what they learned. Groups work collaboratively to complete the game.

Students will determine the relationship between two line segments in a given three-dimensional figure. Figures are either rectangular or triangular prisms.

In this science and engineering instructional activity, students use dimensional analysis to solve each of the problems stated on the sheet. They illustrate their work and how they arrived at their answers by using significant figures...

In this math learning exercise, students cut out six three-dimensional shapes. The shapes include a sphere, cone, cylinder, pyramid, and cube.

In this 3D shape worksheet, students review the names of 4 shapes on page one and color each shape a specific color to match the key on page two.

Which shapes fit? Learners practice visual discrimination using a geometry worksheet, which has them examine shapes that have been divided in half. They observe a set of shapes to determine which of them would fit into each half of the...

Find the shapes that fit. Pupils explore visual discrimination in a set of geometry worksheets, which has them examine shapes that have been divided in half. They observe a set of shapes to determine which of them would fit into each...

Have your class participate in a variety of sports and craft activities using this resource. With sports as the theme, learners work on art projects. Students create soccer ball prints, a three dimensional football, and a sports collage.

Sixth graders explore three-dimensional objects. In groups, they create and decorate their own polyhedron design. After identifying the faces, vertices, and edges of the polyhedron, 6th graders determine a relationship between the...

All the 2-D and 3-D measurement work you need is in one location. Divided into three sections, the geometry lesson plans consist of visualization of three dimensions, classifying geometric figures, and finding surface area and volume....

Determine the level of understanding within your classes using a summative assessment. As the final lesson in a 29-part module, the goal is to assess the topics addressed during the unit. Concepts range from linear angle relationships,...

Pupils identify and sketch the nets for sphere. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between two and three dimensional shapes. They find the surface area of each sphere.

Third graders identify two and three dimensional shapes used in architectural designs by viewing images on the Internet.  In this geometry instructional activity, 3rd graders create their own building designs and identify the...

In this nets of figures learning exercise, students determine which given shapes will make a shown net, then name the shapes uses. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this solid figures worksheet, students read the word problems about the solid figures and find the figure that follows the rule.

Middle schoolers construct a three-dimensional model of a city using both similar and congruent figures and geometric transformations. City must have at least ten buildings with each building labeled and may be constructed out of paper...

In this three-dimensional shapes geometry lesson plan, learners identify geometric solids and name their properties. They define "face," "edge," and "vertex," and construct geometric solids using marshmallows as vertices and toothpicks...
