Students explore radial symmetry.  In this 3 dimensional art and geometry instructional activity, students identify examples of radial symmetry in everyday objects. Students create an imprint using radial symmetry on clay tiles.

Learners study facial symmetry. They explore lines of symmetry, and create illustrations with multiple lines of symmetry.

Students practice dance to divide the space or body shape into equal sections to create symmetry in dance. In this symmetry instructional activity, students practice symmetrical and asymmetrical movements in dance. Students participate...

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...

Working on symmetry in your class? If so, this worksheet might be for you. Learners observe different triangles and quadrilaterals, determine which are symmetrical, draw in the lines of symmetry, and color the symmetrical shapes. In...

The quality of the images on this worksheet is poor, but it could be a simple way to review the principle of symmetry with young mathematicians. Students are presented with six images. They must first identify which of these pictures has...

Although the quality of the images on this worksheet is poor, this might be a quick and easy way to review the principle of symmetry with young mathematicians. Students are presented with six images. They must first identify which of...

Develop young mathematicians' knowledge of two- and three-dimensional shapes with this geometry workbook. From learning about the classifications of different shapes and figures to calculating their area, perimeter, and volume, this...

Students investigate the concept of line symmetry and how to recognize it in different contexts. They record the number of symmetries when given problems to work on in class. They review the concept of congruence and how it relates to...

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...

Challenge your class to identify, label, and draw a wide range of symmetries with this worksheet. In addition, learners name symmetrical shapes and compare them to alphabet letters. This worksheet asks class members to work with lines of...

Play around with symmetry with this worksheet! Learners examine an image of half of a bug drawn on grid paper and complete the drawing, making the image symmetrical. The bug contains curved lines as well as patterns to copy over to the...

In this line symmetry reteaching worksheet, 4th graders determine which letters of the alphabet display a line of symmetry. They compare to lines drawn through 4 letters and circle the one that shows symmetry. They draw one or two lines...

How can you tell if shapes are symmetrical? Fourth graders study 12 shapes, and draw lines down the middle of shapes that have symmetry. Once they are finished, they complete shapes that are missing their symmetrical sides. Some shapes...

Fifth graders demonstrate different types of lines using movement. In this line and movement lesson plan, 5th graders demonstrate parallel and perpendicular lines, and lines of symmetry using dance movement. They also demonstrate rhombus...

Have your class explore symmetry, radial balance and fractional parts in natural and man-made objects in their environment. Learners list examples and identify symmetrical and asymmetrical designs. Pupils are given a box of crayons and...

Do your learners know that letters of the alphabet have lines of symmetry? Well, some of them do. Scholars examine nine symmetrical letters and draw in the line of symmetry for each (one of them has two!). They also complete six letters...

This resource offers a series of hands-on activities in which learners sketch and construct symmetrical origami, paper dolls, snowflakes, and polyhedra while adhering to specific requirements. These activities ask class members to...

Challenge your geometry class with this connect-the-dots activity! Scholars use a ruler to complete simple shapes through connecting dots in 6 shape-identification problems, and identify it from 4 choices: triangle, square, rectangle, or...

Flip, turn, and slide about the coordinate plane. Pupils define the rigid motions and experiment with them before determining the relationships of the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. The sixth unit in a nine-part series...

Second graders find the lines of symmetry in pattern blocks and alphabet letters. In this symmetry lesson, 2nd graders discuss what symmetry is, view examples of lines of symmetry and apply what they have learned by finding the line of...

In this math worksheet, students analyze 15 pictures of geometric figures and match them to the names which are provided in a word bank. Students tell how many lines of symmetry each shape has.

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Investigate the attributes of polygons. A thorough set of lessons presents problem scenarios for elementary through high school classes. The first lessons focus on basic characteristics of polygons, including the line of symmetry. As the...
