Curated OER
Create A Map!
Students examine two- and three-dimensional shapes, and discuss map skills and attributes. They plan and create their own school campus maps using pre-cut building site shapes.
Curated OER
Shape City
Students add to a class Shape City by designing and constructing new buildings.
Curated OER
Geometric Solids
First graders identify various shapes in everyday objects. in pairs, 1st graders go on a shape field trip to locate various objects of different shapes. They photograph the objects and later use the prints to write sentences describing...
Curated OER
Exploring Volume of Cylinders
Tenth graders investigate the volume of a cylinder. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders create three-dimensional cylinders and use a ruler to determine the dimensions. The lesson progresses to the use of the formula to find...
Curated OER
Sort it Out
Young scholars identify and sort a variety of two- and three-dimensional objects and compare and contrast their attributes. They identify shapes, locate shapes on the faces of solids, sort real objects and explain the sorting rule, and...
Curated OER
Solid Shapes
In this math worksheet, students cut out six three-dimensional shapes. The shapes include a sphere, cone, cylinder, pyramid, and cube.
Curated OER
3-D Figures Part 2
Students work with three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson plan, students examine models of spheres, cones, cubes, prisms, and pyramids, and identify them by their edges, vertices, and faces.
Curated OER
Intro to Geometry
Seventh graders identify a polygon and classify them using congruent sides and number of edges and vertices. Students transform two dimensional objects into three dimensional objects.
Curated OER
Color Me Square
Second graders identify and describe basic geometric solids. Working as a class, 2nd graders describe geometric solids using the proper vocabulary and counting faces, bases, corners, and edges. In pairs, students use a computer drawing...
Curated OER
Geometric Patterns
In this geometric patterns worksheet, students learn to solve problems that use geometric patterns and solid figures. Students solve six word problems.
Curated OER
Listen to a Shape
First graders identify basic shapes (circle, square, rectangle, triangle) and describes the attributes of each. They use magazines to find examples of each shape, and then make a collage.
Curated OER
Shapes are Everywhere
Second graders gain an understanding of geometric shapes and spatial reasoning. They learn the attributes of solid shapes in everyday activities. Students compare geometric shapes to everday objects, finding things that serve a purpose...
Curated OER
Surface Area of Solids
In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders calculate the surface area of solids given the sides or radius. There are 20 questions with an answer key.
Curated OER
1st Geometry
In this geometry worksheet, students choose the multiple choice answer to 15 questions involving several different elements of geometry.
Curated OER
Analogies
For this math analogies worksheet, students respond to 4 questions that require them to analyze the relationships between math words. Students then write their own math analogies.
Curated OER
What a Shape!
Second graders culminate their study of shapes by describing the shapes using the proper mathematical descriptors.
Curated OER
Make New Shapes
In this making shapes worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems that require them to investigate shapes.
Curated OER
Second Grade Geometry
In this second grade geometry worksheet, 2nd graders answer 10 multiple choice questions about geometric shapes, with the answers available online.
Curated OER
Shapes
In this shapes worksheet, students identify shapes according to sentences that describe them. Students identify 8 shapes, but have 14 to choose from.
Texas Education Agency
Texas Gateway: Determining the Surface Area and Volume of Composite Figures
Given a problem involving composite figures made from prisms, pyramids, spheres, cones, and/or cylinders, the student will find the surface area and volume of the composite figure.
Texas Education Agency
Texas Gateway: Using Models to Connect to and Understand Volume Formulas
[Accessible by TX Educators. Free Registration/Login Required] The student will use models to develop formulas and connect them to the volume of prisms, spheres, cylinders, pyramids, and cones.
Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Solid Geometry Word Problems
Solve problems concerning real-world situations with the volumes of cones, cylinders, and spheres. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.
Shmoop University
Shmoop: Basic Geometry: 3 D Objects (Prisms, Cylinders, Cones, Spheres)
The geometry resource investigates three-dimensional objects. Objects include prisms, cylinders, cones, and spheres. Detailed examples and practice exercises are included.
