Using Symmetry to Create Corporate Logos
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 alphabet and...
Curated OER
Exploring 2D and 3D Shapes (Word Search)
In this math and language arts worksheet, students examine 15 words in a word bank which pertain to geometric shapes. Students find the words in a word search puzzle.
Curated OER
Shape Puzzle-- Car
In this shape activity, students cut out 12 basic geometric shapes with patterns provided. Using these pieces, students look at a picture of a car and duplicate this design.

More or Less
In this comparison worksheet, students count clip art pictures in 10 boxes. They circle the group that has less in each box. They see pictures of animals, geometric shapes, and birds.
Curated OER
Geometric Patterns
In this geometric patterns worksheet, students learn to solve problems that use geometric patterns and solid figures. Students solve six word problems.
Curated OER
Recognizing Right Angles
In this right angles worksheet, students analyze 9 geometric or irregular shapes. In the box below each picture, students put a "tick" if there is a right angle or a "cross" if there is not.
Curated OER
Tessellation
In this math worksheet, students investigate tessellations. Students analyze geometric figures and indicate if the shapes tessellate. Students draw and color their own tessellating pattern.
Curated OER
Permutations
For this permutations worksheet, 6th graders solve and complete 5 different types of problems. First, they write a simple conceptual art plan with no more than 3 instructions. Then, students use graph paper and a pencil to draw a plan....
