Curated OER
Giant Museum
Scholars make a giant scale model of an object. They will take a regular item and enlarge it to five times its length and width. They attempt this same concepts with a 3D model.
Curated OER
Light and Shadow
Students compare and draw items with shading based on where a light source is in relation to the object.

Finding Polygons in Cubist Art
Fourth graders explore geometric properties and relationships in a two-dimensional work of art. They first search for and identify polygons in a Cubist painting and then use polygons to create their own Cubist portrait of a classmate.
Curated OER
Moving Day!
Eighth graders continue their geometry unit by focusing on volume. Using data, they create a spreadsheet, estimate and calculate volume. They solve real-life problems and round their answers to the hundredths place. They also practice...

Principles of Flight: Flying Paper Airplanes
Students investigate ways to enhance an object's flying ability. In this model construction instructional activity, students construct two paper airplanes, one of which is twice as big as the first. Students compare and...
Curated OER
It's a Wrap!
Learners study two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects by assembling a sculptural piece from something very flat - pieces of newspaper or wallpaper. They see what materials people used to make clothing during the depression.
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
Geometry - Measurement
Students review the procedure for determining appropriate types of measurements for given situations and measurement conversions. They figure perimeter, area, and volume of 2 and 3 dimensional objects.
Curated OER
Sort It Out and Match It Up
Middle schoolers identify objects that are the same shape and size. They compare and contrast attributes of two-and three-dimensional objects using appropriate vocabulary. Pupils justify an extension of a geometric pattern to explain...
Curated OER
Measures of Space I: Lengths and Areas
Pupils discover how to measure in one and two dimensional space and calculate how much space any object of a given dimension occupies. After a discussion about dimensions, students work with Zome System Creator Kits to build one and two...
Curated OER
Cannon Balls
Second graders investigate 2 and 3 dimensional objects. They discuss the characteristics of the triangle. Students create sequential patterns and describe the rule for their pattern.
Curated OER
Polydron Fun
Learners investigate nets as they relate to volume and area. In this geometry lesson plan, students use nets as a visual to deepen their understanding of surface area and volume of objects. They make conjectures about different objects...
Curated OER
Analyzing 3-D Shapes and 2-D Representations
Students can analyze 3-D objects better with actual physical models and by also drawing 2-D representations of them.
Curated OER
Volume and Surface Area of Right Rectangular Prisms
Students identify the formulas for three-dimensional figures. They use manipulatives to model problems. Students create foldables and explain volume and surface area. Students complete worksheets and classify solids. Students sing a...
Curated OER
What a View!
Students examine two- and three-dimensional shapes and figures. Individually, they practice identifying the shape from various viewpoints. By completing this activity, they develop a spatial sense about how figures and shapes are...
Curated OER
Roll or Slide?
Students explore models of three-dimensional shapes. In this geometric shapes instructional activity, students use hands-on manipulatives to explore three-dimensional shapes. Students predict whether each shape will roll or slide.
Curated OER
Shapes Galore!
First graders explore two-dimensional shapes. Individually, children follow directions to draw shapes. Learners use shaving cream, geoboards, yarn, marshmallows, and toothpicks to create shapes. As a class, 1st graders brainstorm...
Curated OER
How Do You Know A Panther Was Here?
Students research the signs that panthers leave. In this panther track lesson, students conduct Internet research into the signs that panthers leave such as tracks, scat, scrapes, and scratches. They make a three-dimensional poster using...
Curated OER
Designing Scientific Models
In this scientific models worksheet, students will use a model to represent matter in its various states. Students can use a computer graphics program, drawing on paper, or three-dimensional creation. Then students will complete 3 short...
Curated OER
Copycats
Third graders describe the features of 2 and 3 dimensional objects and use the language of geometry. They design and make a pattern which involves translation, reflection or rotation.
Curated OER
Dimensional Space: Various Perspectives
Students use their understanding of 3D on 2D to make a representation of a 4D form on paper.
Virginia Department of Education
Geometry and Volume
The history of math is fascinating! Utilize a woodcut primary source image from 1492 and posters from the 1930s to help geometers apply their volume-calculation skills to real-life questions.
