Folding Circles
Students investigate properties of circles. In this geometry activity, students differentiate between similarity and congruence as they observe polygons. They investigate properties of two and three dimensional shape.
Curated OER
Volume of Cones
Young scholars identify the volume of cones and pyramids. In this geometry lesson, students derive the formula for cones and pyramids. They calculate the volume of cones and other three dimensional shapes.
Curated OER
Nets And Surface Area
Upper graders investigate how to find the surface area when using two-dimensional shapes. They conduct an investigation in groups while working sample problems given during class discussion with the teacher. They also review how to...
Curated OER
Straws and Shapes
Students investigate the concepts related to observing two dimensional objects. They also build three dimensional objects using the two dimensional objects. The students give an oral or written explanation for how the pieces fit together...
Curated OER
Basic Shapes
In this ESL worksheet, students describe 23 shapes (2-dimensional and 3-dimensional). The shapes include an arrow, star, square, rectangle, and triangle.
Curated OER
Shape It
Fourth graders use math software and geoboard paper to design basic shapes. They write individual definitions for the geometric shapes based on what they see in the shapes. They apply their background knowledge of the shape as they write...
Curated OER
Listen to a Shape
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.
Curated OER
Solid Shapes
In this solid shapes learning exercise, learners learn to identify and solve word problems that use solid shapes. Students solve six word problems about solid shapes.
Curated OER
Perimeter and Area of 2D Shapes
Young scholars find the perimeter and area of circles, triangles, and rectangles. In this perimeter and area activity, the teacher gives students formulas for each shape and measurement and works through examples on the board. While no...

What is a Trapezoid? (Part 2)
This collaborative activity investigates the meaning of a trapezoid and a parallelogram. It begins by presenting two different definitions of a trapezoid. Learners are to reason abstractly the difference between the two definitions and...
Curated OER
Geometry Practice: Classifying Solids #2
In this solids worksheet, students identify the characteristics of solids. They name solids and determine the number of faces. This three-page worksheet contains seventeen problems. Answers are listed on the last page.
Curated OER
Shape & Form
Students analyze the difference between shape and form. They identify, explain and use the basic elements of design and determine that forms are three-dimensional and shapes are two-dimensional. They sketch it on their paper and then...
Curated OER
Identifying Three Dimensional Figures (3)
In this 3 dimensional figures activity, students study the 10 3-dimensional figures. Students identify and label each of the 10 figures.
Curated OER
Identifying Three-Dimensional Figures (4)
In this shape recognition worksheet, students study the 3-dimensional figures and identify each one. Students label the 10 figures.
Curated OER
Three Dimensional Boxes
Students investigate the geometric shape of a box. They apply different construction methods and materials to create a three dimensional box. The uses of a box are covered and the measurements taken to consider its uses. Students...
Curated OER
Shape Walk
Students take a field trip to a local park or beach to collect objects. They practice counting the objects and put them into categories according to type of shape like a cone, cylinder, etc... As an extension to the lesson students could...
Alabama Learning Exchange
Twisted Tangrams
Primary geometers create a picture using tangrams. In this geometry lesson, students read Grandfather Tang: A Tale Told with Tangrams, cut out their own tangrams, and choose a character from the story to make using their tangram pieces.

Truncated Cones
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...
National Gallery of Canada
To Canada with Love
Focus on line and color with a postcard project. Learners view various works of art and discuss line and color before moving on to creating their own work. Using nature as inspiration, pupils decorate postcards and mail them after...
Curated OER
"Polly"gon Pockets
Explore polygons with your elementary learners. Divide the class in 12 to configure the polygon puzzle before them. They list the attributes of each type of polygon they see, and if there's time, they jump on the interactive website...
Utah Education Network (UEN)
Geometry
Shape one's understanding of geometry using the resource. The sixth of seven chapters in 6th Grade Math focuses on geometry principles. Future mathematicians learn to find the area of parallelograms, trapezoids, triangles, and other...
Curated OER
3-D Figures Part 1
Elementary schoolers explore 3-D shapes. They transition from thinking of shapes as only 2-D. Pupils read Cinderella as a launching activity for their upcoming adventure, and explore a new world of 3-D shapes in this introductory lesson.
Curated OER
A Cone and Its Net
Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...
