In this Perimeter, Circumference, Volume, and Surface Area activity, students are asked to identify geometric formulas and calculate for volume and surface area for geometric solids.  In addition, students are asked to identify...

In this congruent figures learning exercise, students answer ten true or false questions. A sample question reads: "Two triangles are congruent when their shape and size will be the same."

Discuss different techniques for finding the area of a geometric shape, with a great visual guide. Using a real life example, learners calculate the area of a rectangle and a square. 

In this math review for grade 2 (2.3) worksheet, 2nd graders answer 25 multiple choice questions in standardized test format about measurement and geometric shapes.

Navajo art incorporates many fascinating shapes and designs. In this shapes instructional activity, students explore how shapes may be combined to create art and architecture. They also discover shapes in the world around them.

Study geometry through the concept of quilt design. High schoolers examine the geometric shapes in various quilts and then create their own quilts using geometric shapes that fit together. In the end, they write a paragraph to...

What type of corners does this shape have? Young geometers examine 12 shapes, circling the square corners in each if they have any. There are two examples demonstrating this concept, but be sure scholars understand the difference between...

You and your class will like this lesson on using visual models to relate the volume and surface area of solid shapes. Learners construct three-dimensional forms using nets. They calculate the surface area and volume for each and then...

Name that shape! Your math class identifies cubes and other three-dimensional products. They practice calculating the volume of cubes and identify cubes around them in the classroom. Worksheets and directions are provided.

Learners explore volume and surface area. In this math lesson plan, students fill boxes with cubes to identify the volume of the boxes. Learners discuss area.

In this geometric shapes instructional activity, students analyze similar shapes and find the missing length using a proportion. There are no examples.

In this math worksheet, students 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.

Students explore the concept of polygon properties. In this polygon properties lesson, students draw polygons with different numbers of sides such as pentagons, octagons, hexagons, etc. Students identify different geometric shapes in the...

Scholars use interactive resources to figure out how to mathematically draw a reflection of a geometric shape viewed in a mirror. To conclude the activity, class members are asked to deduce the result of multiple reflections across...

Students comprehend how Landsat satellites orbit teh Earth to produce images. They comprehend the elliptical path of satellites. Students recognize that a different orbital path is needed for different satellites to perform their tasks....

Young geometers investigate and apply properties of quadrilaterals.  After a review and discussion of key terms, learners use a computer applet to explore four-sided figures and classify them according to their attributes. The...

The class braids irrational numbers, Pythagoras, and perimeter together. The mini-assessment requires scholars to use irrational numbers and the Pythagorean Theorem to find perimeters of rugs. The rugs are rectangular, triangular,...

Customers often want ribbon around fancy cakes, but how does a baker know how much ribbon to buy? Scholars view a cake with multiple layers in different geometric shapes. They must figure the perimeter and circumference and add them...

Archaeology digs are much like giant jigsaw puzzles. The artifacts found are often in pieces and scientists must reconstruct them. A hands-on activity lets young archaeologists experience this facet of the job as they create, smash, and...

Students use pattern blocks to create a figure that is described to them and establish a pattern based on the description of the geometric figure. In this pattern blocks lesson plan, students fill out shape and fraction worksheets.

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 shape and figure worksheet, learners name shapes or figures that are described, then draw a picture of each. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this math worksheet, learners investigate reflections of geometric shapes by completing 15 problems. Students analyze a picture of a geometric figure drawn on a dot grid and draw the reflection.
