Students identify 3-dimensional geometric shapes and list the characteristics of each. Using modeling clay, they create their own models of specified geometric shapes. Students create and design a box to store their geometric models.

Cut apart 16 cards with 8 congruent pairs of geometric shapes, then have your class match the cards which show congruent shapes. There are no directions or information on the page so use your imagination to create a fun activity. Tip:...

Students compare, classify and calculate the area of geometric figures such as rectangles, squares, circles and triangles.

Students identify two and three dimensional shapes and use appropriate geometric vocabulary to write a description of the figure by taking pictures of geometric figures in their own environment.

In this math worksheet, learners learn to match the name of a geometric figure with the picture. Students examine a drawing of a geometric shape, then circle the word that matches it.

In this math worksheet, students examine a maze of geometric figures. Students help Goofy Glenda find her way home by coloring only the triangles in the maze.

In this math worksheet, students read the name of a geometric figure and analyze the drawings next to it. Students color the image that matches the word.

In this area worksheet, students brainstorm the concept of area and cut out geometric figures on the materials page. Students work in pairs to complete this worksheet.

Young mathematicians investigate the use of symmetry in graphic design. After first learning about reflection, translational, and rotational symmetry, children use this new knowledge to identify symmetry in letters of the...

Is it a line, line segment, ray, or angle? Identifying geometric figures is the focus. In addition to identification, learners recognize right angles or tell if an angle is less than or greater than a right angle. They tell if lines are...

Geometric transformations in algebra ... what? Given four transformations, the narrator explains how each affect the graph of the original function. The transformations involve translations and reflections, both horizontally and...

You can't judge a book by its cover ... or a cube structure by just one face. A creative instructional activity looks at the shape of several cube structures described by level slices. The 20th instructional activity of the 29-part...

Math whizzes work with angle sums and exterior angles to figure out the measure of other angles. This particular publication provides comprehensive support in the form of an anticipatory activity, questions designed to prompt discussion,...

Geometry is full of shapes, figures, and corresponding things here and there. The guide shares all of the key pieces of geometric information in a nicely color-coded and labeled sheet. 

In this 2D figure worksheet, students pick which figure they are given. Students choose from 4 figures in each of the 4 problems they are asked.

In this 3D figure worksheet, students observe the net of a 3D figure where you open up the figure and tell if it is an accurate representation of that figure. Students complete this for 3 figures.

For this calculating area of compound figures worksheet, middle schoolers solve 4 problems that require them to find the area of compound shapes.

In this shapes and figures worksheet, students name shape and figures, then write why they named it as such. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this geometry skills worksheet, students respond to 4 questions that require them to find the area of compound figures.

In this fractions worksheet, students solve 30 problems in which they color fractional parts of geometric figures and also match fractions with pictures.

In this 2D and 3D figure worksheet, learners name different shapes and decide if they are polygons or not. Students complete 8 problems.

In this nets instructional activity, students determine which figures will make given nets, then write the names of 4 given shapes. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

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.

Young scholars explore the basic geometric shapes and geometric shape vocabulary through the use of geoboards and virtual geoboards. They create a variety of shapes with a partner, build ten different rectangles on their geoboards, and...
