Third graders investigate shapes in our world. In this geometry instructional activity, 3rd graders describe plane and solid shapes and identify angles, solid objects and lines of symmetry. Students use online resources, graphic...

In 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.

Fourth graders examine the properties of geometric solids. Given geometric figures, they brainstorm observations. In groups, 4th graders identify solids and discuss the physical properties. Each student creates a Venn diagram and...

Second graders culminate their study of shapes by describing the shapes using the proper mathematical descriptors.

In this 3D shapes worksheet, students cut out the 3D shape on the page and fold on the lines to create the correct shape. The worksheet states which shape should be build with the cut-out.

Students define a plane and a solid shape. For this geometry lesson, students compare and contrast different geometric shapes as they relate to solids. They name the geometric solids based on their sides and edges.

Students identify and classify solid geometric figures. In this geometry lesson, students bring in objects that look like solid shapes and identify their attributes. Students identify the number of surfaces and faces on each figure.

For this shapes picture quiz worksheet, students complete a set of 12 multiple choice questions, identifying shapes. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this 2D figure worksheet, learners pick which figure they are given. Students choose from 4 figures in each of the 4 problems they are asked.

Students identify three-dimensional forms in various buildings and construct three-dimensional paper forms.

Students identify solid figures. For this classification lesson, students recognize and name solid figures. Students identify which figures contain polygons and rectangles. Students practice counting vertices, faces and edges.

Seventh graders explore the characteristics of three-dimensional figures. They compare the nets of figures. Students describe the relationship between the nets draw and the solid. They identify the vertices, edges and faces of the...
