Here is an engaging geometry lesson which has students identify the properties of shapes and cut shapes out of magazines. They make cookies using cookie cutters in various shapes.

Some of the best practice with shape identification comes from drawing the figures first-hand. Young geometers draw nine two-dimensional shapes: rectangle, circle, square, pentagon, hexagon, octagon, triangle with three equal sides,...

Compare and classify 2-D shapes! Kindergarteners inspect the attributes of plane shapes and examine shapes in everyday life. They label the circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles they find. This is the website where you can find the...

A fabulous lesson on identifying circles, triangles, squares, and rectangles awaits your learners. They use large motor skills hopping from shape to shape, use visual and kinesthetic skills passing a ball of yarn between three people to...

Get to know eight shapes by name: square, rectangle, triangle, pentagon, hexagon, and octagon. Young geometers write the correct name below each of these shapes, using a word bank for guidance. Then, they draw two of the...

Inside each of these two-dimensional shapes, scholars identify the figure by writing its name. There is a word bank for them to work from, but some shape names are used multiple times. There are six identifiers they use: pentagon,...

For beginners to color, number, and shape theory, this is a great way to solidify skills. They use a key at the top to determine which color (yellow, green, purple, or blue) to shade each shape (square, triangle, circle, and rectangle,...

Get your geometers familiar with shapes as they circle, color, shade, and count sets of rectangles, triangles, circles, squares, and trapezoids. For each of the 10 sets, they examine six figures and follow instructions to mark the...

Introduce the names and properties of basic 2-D shapes. Images and defining features of the circle, rectangle, triangle, and square are shown. Each image is colorful and includes a happy, smiling face, perfect for younger learners.

In this perimeter and area worksheet, young scholars find the perimeter and area of polygons. They use the proper formula to find the perimeter and area of circles, parallelograms, triangles, and rectangles. Students complete solve ten...

Middle and high schoolers investigate all the different places in math that square root is present. In this geometry lesson, pupils discuss square roots as it relates to a right triangle and construction. They go over altitude, rise,...

Student scientists investigate triangle structures. In this building lesson plan, students explore how to design triangle braces in the construction of structures in order to build a stronger base.

Tenth graders solve and complete 14 different geometry problems. First, they find the area and circumference of a circle with a given radius. Then, they find the area between a circle and an inscribed equilateral triangle given the...

Which shape is the same? Young geometers match a triangle, circle, rectangle, and square to their identical counterparts, connecting them with a line from left to right. Then, they do the same thing with a set of four circular shapes,...

As a review of geometric shapes, such as circles, triangles, and squares, this resource would be a terrific addition to a classroom lesson. The visuals are inviting and the number of sides to each figure are also identified. In addition,...

What a fun activity for younger learners! Using this resource, they can discuss the attributes of squares, rectangles, triangles, circles, and ovals, and also engage in a motivating activity. For those learning about simple shapes, this...

Excellent lesson! Anne Linehane's geometry story, The Greedy Triangle, offers an opportunity to practice forming various types of polygons with your learners. Using elastic bands (or Chinese jump ropes),...

Can you use triangles to create a circle? Learners develop the unit circle using right triangle trigonometry. They then use the unit circle to evaluate common sine and cosine values.

Through a variety of hands-on activities and physical scenarios, this far-reaching unit leads learners through an exceptionally thorough exploration of circles and parabolas as conic sections. Geometric construction techniques are used...

Investigate the relationship between irrational roots and a number line with a resource that asks learners to put together a number line using radical intervals rather than integers. A great progression, they build on their understanding...

What are these shapes? Learners examine pairs of six familiar shapes: circle, oval, triangle, hexagon, square, and rectangle. Each pair is placed together because of a common attribute, which is described above. Learners name the...

An upper-level treatment of what is often presented as a basic concept (the right angle of an inscribed circle on the diameter), this activity really elevates the mathematical thought of the learner! Expected to develop formulas...

Students review basic shapes, such as circles, squares, triangles, and rectangles, find objects in those shapes in classroom, watch Clifford's Fun with Shapes video, practice reproducing four shapes, and rotate through four classroom...

Kindergartners demonstrate their ability to identify seven different shapes by labeling each of the 28 examples on the worksheet. Learners must be able to identify rectangles, diamonds, squares, ovals, triangles, circles, and pentagons.
