Guess My Shape
Learners play a game with shapes. They work in groups to identify the names and characteristics of various shapes. They give each other clues to see if others can identify the shape being described. This is a great hands on activity.

Thinking in the Three Dimensions
Discover different dimensions with paper folding. Pupils first read about zero, one, two, and three dimensions, and then learn about the fourth dimension, time. They then use origami to create models of shapes in three dimensions and use...

The Pasture and the Fence
Beginning geometers use tiles and grid paper to draw and calculate perimeter and area. Rectangles of different sizes are created and then measured to build understanding. The one-inch grid sheet referenced is attached.

Area - Practice 18.3
In a straightforward assignment, learners simple calculate the area or perimeter of 14 rectangles. For the first six, a rectangle is drawn with the lengths of the sides provided. For the next six, lengths of sides are simply listed to...

Pyramids and Cones
Young mathematicians find the surface area and volume of a square pyramid and a cone. In what looks like a typical activity out of a textbook, you'll find an activity where learners find an unknown measurement of a pyramid or...
Balanced Assessment
Square and Circle
To determine the dimensional change to quadruple the area, class members determine how to increase the dimensions of a square and a circle to increase the perimeter by a given factor. they then calculate the necessary factor to...

Recognize Area as Additive - Matching Worksheet
Wow, that's a big pencil box! Scholars measure the area of a 15-foot pencil box among other measurement word problems. For each, they evaluate the information given to figure the area, which is sometimes not the end-all answer they are...

Polly and the Shapeshifter
Students analyze the patterns in polygons and relate it to the rate of change. In this algebra lesson, students discuss the relationship between the data and the graph of the data.
Curated OER
Space Geometry
Students explore points, lines and planes as it relates to geometry. In this geometry activity, students analyze space and explain wy it is 3-D and not flat or 2-D. They solve problems involving volume and 3-D shapes.
