Introduce your math class to the perimeter of a circle. Teach them that pi describes the relationship between the circumference and the diameter. As a hands-on investigation, pairs or small groups use string to compare these two values...

In this surface area learning exercise, students solve 6 short answer problems. Students determine the amount of gift wrap paper needed to cover a rectangular box using surface area formulas.

Students study pyramids. In this prisms instructional activity, students explore the attributes of pyramids. Students will explore the lateral surface area of pyramids and be able to distinguish pyramids from other space shapes.

First graders explore geometric shapes. In this math instructional activity, 1st graders sort shapes into groups and discuss the characteristics of the shapes. Students build geometric shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows.

Fourth graders view and identify three-dimensional figures. They analyze and discuss various figures, build three-dimensional figures, and complete various worksheets and worksheet discussion questions.

Students explore measurements by analyzing geometric shapes. In this surface area lesson plan, students identify the terms volume, weight, perimeter and area in order to find the requested measurements of specific polygons. Students...

Pupils explore pyramids. In this math lesson, students discuss where they have seen examples of pyramids. Pupils classify pyramids as three-dimensional figures and identify their attributes.

Students investigate measurement through the use of literature through this series of lessons.

Students identify and create simple geometric shapes and describe simple spatial relationships. Through discussion, hands-on activities and show and tell, they identify geometric solids in real life and create graphs of commonly found...

Students identify the parts of an engine using a graph. In this statistics instructional activity, students make a graph from their collected data. They calculate the volume of a cylinder using a line of regression...

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...

Learn how to calculate the surface area and volume of rectangular prisms and cylinders. Four interactive animations, preceded by simple instructions, guide you through the process of calculating area and volume.
