Students explore symmetry. In this geometry lesson, student identify and define bilateral symmetry, radial symmetry, pentagonal symmetry, hexagonal symmetry, and cubic symmetry. Students construct examples of these types of symmetry and...

Students draw symmetrical shapes. In this symmetry lesson, students complete a self assessment worksheet. Students draw shapes that have lines of symmetry. They then check for rotational symmetry and show the relationship between lines...

Fifth graders identify lines of symmetry., similar and congruent shapes. They use construction paper to create their own symmetrical shapes. Students create stained glass frames containing symmetrical, congruent and similar shapes.

Students explore symmetry in architecture.  In this cross curriculum art  and architecture lesson, students fold paper to illustrate symmetry and identify symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes.  Students observe photographs...

Students are introduced to the concept of symmetry by examining different shapes and folding them into equal halves. They work in small groups focusing on finding the lines of symmetry of one specific shape. A symmetry booklet is made by...

Third graders understand what a line of symmetry is and how to draw symmetrically. In this monster symmetry lesson, 3rd graders create an original monster that is symmetrical. Students participate in additional symmetry activities.

In this recognizing symmetrical figures worksheet, students identify objects that are symmetrical and trace the line of symmetry. Students solve five problems.

Students create handcrafted paper Hawaiian quilt squares. They do this to show the concept of symmetry across two lines of reflection.

Second graders demonstrate understanding of symmetry and identify objects that have symmetry. They use a mirror to get a visual illustration of what symmetry is. They create a collage of symmetrical pictures they find in magazines.

Students explore the symmetries of an equilateral triangle. In this lesson on symmetry, students determine the composition of given equilateral triangles using both rotational and reflectional symmetries.

In this symmetry and translation worksheet, students sketch the reflection of the shapes in the mirror lines. There are 6 shapes to sketch.

In this symmetry and translation worksheet, students sketch the reflection of the shapes in the mirror lines. There are 6 shapes to sketch.

For this math worksheet, students cut out 6 shapes. Students fold the shapes to investigate their lines of symmetry and see if the shapes are symmetrical or not.

Fifth graders review the concept of a line of symmetry by using pieces of paper that have pictures such as, letters of the alphabet, polygons, and designs made from polygons in order to determine if they have symmetry. The fine,...

Help your class discover the commutative property of addition with this exploration of the addition table. By folding and coloring the table, a symmetry is found that directs students to an understanding of this crucial mathematical...

Your Spanish students will see what symmetry looks like on a quadrilateral, triangle, and circle  in this presentation. Large, bright shapes are displayed with lines of symmetry, followed by examples that do not show a line of...

This resource provides 5 different worksheets on the topic of polygons and symmetry. These worksheets cover rotational symmetry, lines of symmetry, symmetry of regular polygons, special quadiralaterals, and polygon transformation. The...

Students practice how to draw a line of symmetry inside a shape. In this symmetry lesson plan, students record the sides, lines of symmetry, and order of rotational symmetry for different shapes.

Students take pictures of shapes and faces they see and draw lines of symmetry in them. In this symmetry lesson plan, students also draw one half of another student's face.

When you engage learners in creating symmetrical objects you are also building their vocabulary and math sense. Kids discuss key words such as, asymmetrical, symmetrical, balance, tint, and shade. They use these elements of design to...

This presentation is intended to accompany an entire unit and covers a wide variety of concepts. Counting on, counting back, symmetry, properties of 2-D shapes, completing symmetrical patterns, and measuring angles are all covered.

Reinforce a strong art vocabulary which can also apply to aspects of math and science. Kids read about various types of balance or symmetry found in art. They analyze three paintings based on vocabulary and read a how-to for creating...

For this life science worksheet, learners examine the 4 stages of the butterfly's life cycle and color in the black line pictures. They read the difference between symmetrical and asymmetrical objects before they complete symmetrical...

Students examine the concept of symmetry in Lao art and apply it to their own works. They construct full-face masks by copying the stencils onto colored paper. Students apply creative touches by painting and drawing on their assembled...
