In this shapes worksheet, students identify shapes according to sentences that describe them. Students identify 8 shapes, but have 14 to choose from.

This slide-show is packed with information relating to a variety of mathematical concepts. Intended as an accompaniment to a full unit, this resource provides definitions, explanations, and opportunities for learners to practice their...

Third graders investigate congruent polygons through dance. For this congruency lesson, 3rd graders do the "brain dance" as a warm up. They review polygon names by singing "The Polygon Chant," before mirroring congruent shapes with a...

Help your class identify right triangles using this resource. This series of slides involves pictures of clocks with hands forming right angles. It's an interesting way to introduce this topic.

10 this geometry worksheet, students identify the different angles created by polygons and name the shape created based on the number of sides. There is an answer key.

Young scholars engage in a hands-on experiment to determine how launch angles affect airflow around the wing of an aircraft. They view a series of photographs and read information describing the Wright Brothers' experiences. They...

Students read The Greedy Triangle and discuss geometric solids. In this geometry lesson, students list the geo-solids in the world and create a graphic organizer to show where geo-solids exist.

Even middle schoolers still enjoy experimenting with bubbles! They execute a series of experiments enabling them to distinguish between convex and concave surfaces, explore the properties of buoyancy, surface tension, and density,...

Use the alphabet as a tool for teaching your class about geometric figures. Break apart capital letters into line segments and arcs. Classify angles as right, acute, or obtuse. Identify parallel and perpendicular lines. An excellent...

Learners examine a figure made up of different types of triangles and then determine whether each triangle is right, acute, or obtuse. Next, they color each type of triangle a different color. Finally, pupils answer three fill in the...

Use this lesson for a basic review of angles. While the activities discussed are outlined, there are no materials provided to make implementation possible. When using this resource, it is necessary to create worksheets and other...

Logical thinking is at the forefront of this jam-packed lesson, with young mathematicians not only investigating geometric concepts but also how they "know what they know". Through each activity and worksheet, learners wrestle with...

After reviewing characteristics of seven types of triangles, young geometers discover how to find the missing angle of a triangle. Then, they practice identifying triangles, find missing angles, and find missing side lengths of...

Third graders recognize and identify geometric shapes, work with manipulatives to reinforce understanding, and create polygons with various angles to display their knowledge of the different types of angles.

Students compare and contrast angles and identify them as acute, obtuse, right, or straight angles. They create rays and angles using uncooked spaghetti, read and discuss key vocabulary terms, and complete a variety of geometry worksheets.

Third graders analyze angles and determine if they are acute, right, or obtuse. In this angles instructional activity, 3rd graders study the definition and characteristics of each angle. Students then do a worksheet to identify the name...

First graders explore two-dimensional shapes. Individually, children follow directions to draw shapes. Learners use shaving cream, geoboards, yarn, marshmallows, and toothpicks to create shapes. As a class, 1st graders brainstorm...

First graders find angles in their classroom. In this geometric figures lesson, 1st graders identify, describe and classify angles they see in their world. Students create pictures that contain angles and display them in the room.

First graders analyze characteristics of geometric shapes. They identify, describe, and create simple geometric figures. They analyze characteristics of geometric shapes and determine the defining attributes of a circle,...

Students classify angles. In this angles lesson, students explore the characteristics of angles, triangles, quadrilaterals and circles. They identify polygons and sing a classifying angles song. Students participate in a manipulative...

Second graders explore shapes. After reading books about shapes, 2nd graders describe the properties of various shapes. They identify shapes if they have been rotated, flipped, or slid. Students create shapes using drawings and geoboards.

Eighth graders examine Jewish symbols. In this Holocaust lesson, 8th graders discuss the meanings behind the Swastika and the Star of David. Students also measure the angles and shapes with the symbols.

There are five shapes for scholars to identify: rectangle, circle, square, trapezoid, and triangle. Although there isn't much here, consider projecting this as an all-class warm up. Ask kids to verbalize attributes of each...

In this three- and two- dimensional geometry worksheet, 7th graders solve 12 various problems related to geometric shapes and measurement. They first use paper and a pencil to sketch the front, side, back, top and bottom views of each...
