Learners identify the pattern in a problem. In this geometry instructional activity, students make predictions, collect and analyze data. They apply the idea of scales and measurements to the real world.

Students calculate the volume and surface are of three-dimensional shapes. In this geometry lesson plan, students use the nets to prove their calculations of shapes. They identify the different parts of a solid using the nets.

Students create nets of cylinders. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the surface area of cylinders and other solids. They show their understanding of three-dimensional shapes by solving problems.

Students sketch and create nets of different polygons.In this geometry lesson plan, students differentiate prisms from other three-dimensional shapes. They define the properties of prisms.

In this 2-D shapes worksheet, students match a set of descriptions to shapes given. A reference website for additional resources is given.

In this online math worksheet, students complete a 20 problem multiple choice online interactive worksheet with mixed skills including geometry, rounding, and three digit multiplication.

Middle schoolers participate in Over the Line Whifle Ball, which allows for a high amount of practice hitting a whiffle ball with a bat.

Young scholars determine an efficient layout of the pattern pieces needed to make a sports bag with given dimensions and specifications. Given a word problem, data set and a diagram, students evaluate the information they have available...

Fourth graders, acting as foresters, determine timber volumes as sawtimber or pulpwood for marketing. They find the marketable value of a tree using its diameter and volume.

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.

Students design a collage of pictures for a yearbook that make a shape. They determine the area of the shape and the price of putting the collage in the yearbook.

Students practice key aspects of floor hockey: passing, playing cooperatively, moving the ball or puck with both sides of the stick and shooting. They practice drills and play a game without a goalie.

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...

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.

The mathematics resource includes material that explores the volume of pyramids and cones. Definitions, examples, and video lessons investigate the geometry concepts.

Take a look at some problems involving pyramids and cones.

Explanation of surface area and the volume of pyramids, prisms, cylinders, and cones through examples and a video lesson. [1:44]

Provides an explanation, examples, and video lessons all related to area and volume of pyramids, prisms, cylinders, and cones.

Use this interactive tool to explore cones. Change the height and the radius to see how these affect the cone. There is also the option of making an oblique cone. Properties of a cone are discussed, how to use formulas to calculate the...

Use this interactive tool to explore pyramids. Rotate the pyramid to view it from all sides. Increase the number of sides (even to well over 100) until it closely resembles a cone. The base can be made irregular and you can 'explode' the...

Get independent practice working with the surface area of pyramids and cones. Each incorrect response gets a text box explanation and another try. Correct responses are confirmed.

This site gives a short interactive quiz which allows students to self-assess their understanding of the concept of finding the volume of pyramids and cones.
