Students identify lines of symmetry.  In this symmetry instructional activity, students create objects and identify their lines of symmetry.  They answer questions about lines of symmetry.  Students cut shapes out of...

Students investigate the concept of symmetry by using various examples and performing independent practice with scaffolding provided by the teacher. They review reflection symmetry and cover the new rotation symmetry using manipuatives.

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...

Learners build polygons on their geoboards. For this geometry lesson plan, students build and then draw it on paper and label it. Learners then switch with a partner to try an make a symmetrical shape.

Fifth graders define the meaning of similar and congruent using concrete objects. They make similar and congruent figures using geoboards. They draw their figures on dot paper, and color their designs.

Students use Geometers SketchPad to find the area and perimeter of several shapes. In this geometry lesson plan, students determine area of rectangles and progress through irregular polygons. None of the referenced worksheets are...

Young geometers use the interactive website Cyberchase to practice calculating both area and perimeter. Real world problems encourage learners to discover that we use math each and every day.
