Students explore geometry by utilizing stackable blocks in class. In this shape identification instructional activity, students discuss the different characteristics of squares, rectangles and circles while creating them with building...

Students, in groups, venture onto the schoolground on a scavenger hunt for shapes. They are given tasks: recorder, team leader, presenter, reporter, and behavior guidelines and a time limit. They search the school for shapes found in...

Second graders examine the attributes of two-dimensional shapes. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders play a game in order to identify two-dimensional shapes and to name them.

Students identify, compare and classify the various shapes. In this shapes instructional activity, students listen to descriptions of shapes with words such as sides, angles, congruent, and parallel. Students then give the teacher...

Second graders explore and analyze plane shapes. In this plane shapes instructional activity, 2nd graders evaluate shape attributes to classify shapes correctly. Students work in groups to create different shapes.

Students identify shapes, create shapes, and make a pyramid, a drum, and a sail using their shapes. In this shapes lesson plan, students also identify plane and space shapes.

In this geometry worksheet, students look at a picture of downtown landmarks and identify different shapes, lines, and more. Students identify 18 items.

First graders combine different shapes to create an image.  In this geometry lesson, 1st graders utilize squares, circles, rectangles, triangles, and arc to draw a picture.  Students share their creation with their class...

Learners calculate the area and circumference of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students solve word problems with circles and create formulas to calculate the area. They find the rate and complex area of a circle.

First graders review the placement of positional words and shapes. In groups, they travel between eight centers throughout the classroom in which they participate in various activities. They focus on concepts that are related to Geometry.

Students create posters about geometric shapes in order to demonstrate their understanding of the different shapes. Students look for pictures in magazines to represent two-dimensional shapes, paste them on a poster, label the shape,...

Third graders identify two and three dimensional shapes used in architectural designs by viewing images on the Internet.  In this geometry lesson, 3rd graders create their own building designs and identify the geometric shapes that...

Sixth graders identify and use area formulas for finding the area of geometric shapes.

Students distinguish between circles, squares, and rectangles and various colors in which they utilize the KidPix program on the computer to create them. They alternate; allowing each student to have a turn constructing and coloring in...
