In this magic shapes activity, 7th graders work in groups to solve 9 magic square puzzles requiring logic and problem solving.

Third graders complete a classroom game used to build understanding of two and three-dimensional shapes. Diagonals, sides, regularity, congruency, angle measurements, parallels, perpendicular, faces, and edges are a few of the vocabulary...

Students identify polygons. In this geometric shapes lesson, students identify and describe polygons. Students create new shapes out of the shapes they are given.

Learners identify and create shapes. For this geometric shapes lesson, students identify various polygons and try to create new shapes using existing polygons.

Students identify two dimensional shapes in the school environment. In this basic shapes lesson, students watch a video about rectangles and squares. Students find examples shapes in their classroom and draw them. Students present their...

Fourth graders investigate congruent shapes. In this congruency lesson, 4th graders explore examples of congruent shapes. Students determine how to check for congruency by sliding or flipping the shape.

Students describe, make and compare polygons. For this creating polygons lesson, students identify properties of quadrilaterals and describe common features of two dimensional shapes.

In this 3-D folding objects instructional activity, students cut out the model to fold and create a triangular pyramid. No instructions are included.

In this writing worksheet, students use the kite shape with primary writing lines for any story writing or poetry writing purpose. There are no directions.

Show your class one way in which art and math are related by teaching them about M.C. Escher. Class members read a brief passage and then respond to five related questions.

Learners examine objects and find their volumes using geometric formulas in the 21st installment of this 25-part module. Objects take the shape of truncated cones and pyramids, and individuals apply concepts of similar triangles to find...

Inspire first grade artists to learn about abstract and realistic art while reading Eric Carle's Where are you Going? To See My Friend. Young artists design and make a mural collage by tearing shapes of paper while comparing English and...

Where does the line of rotation need to be to get a cone? Pupils respond to three questions involving rotating a right triangle about different lines. The scholars describe the solid created along with providing details about its...

Not all structures take the shape of a polygon. The 21st lesson plan in a series of 29 shows young mathematicians they can create polygons out of composite shapes. Once they deconstruct the structures, they find the area of the composite...

Provide parents with the tools they need to bridge the summer learning gap with this collection of fun activities. Whether it's creating an alphabet poster with illustrations for each letter, playing a game of sight word concentration,...

Geometry learners use hinged mirrors to discover that the regular polygons are composed of triangles tessellating around a center point. They sketch triangles on paper models of the regular polygons having 3 to 10 sides and compute the...

In this evaluating expressions worksheet, students solve and complete 50 various types of review problems. First, they complete each sentence and define the listed terms. Then, students evaluate each expression for the given values. They...

Here's how to calculate the areas of polygonal figures. In this measuring area lesson, upper graders use hash marks to create and count square units. They also problem solve a cyberchase activity watching Quicktime videos.

Examine dilation with matrices with your class. Learners write a conjecture for how the scale factor determines the size of an image. They then use their conjecture to write a matrix multiplication problem for the illustrated...

Students measure angles using a plane table kit. In this geometry activity, students use trigonometric identities to find the values of the length of a football field.

For this geometry lesson, math scholars brainstorm examples of rotations.  Using the SMARTboard, learners observe a rotation. They create their own rotation using graph paper. Finally, pupils complete a worksheet and graph rotations.

In this points, lines, planes, and space worksheet, young scholars solve word problems dealing with points, lines, planes, and space. Students complete 20 individual problems and 20 group problems.
