Curated OER
Year 5 Unit D1
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.
Curated OER
"Polly"gon Pockets
Explore polygons with your elementary learners. Divide the class in 12 to configure the polygon puzzle before them. They list the attributes of each type of polygon they see, and if there's time, they jump on the interactive website...
Curated OER
Lao Design: Mask making
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...
Curated OER
First Grade Math: 1-3
In this first grade math review worksheet, 1st graders answer multiple choice questions about symmetry, money, measurement, time, and more. Students complete 25 questions.
Curated OER
Halves
Is it half? There are three sections to this introductory fractions learning exercise focusing on halves. First graders begin by coloring half of five basic shapes, each of which already is divided into two parts. Next, they examine four...
Curated OER
Transformations Using the Geometer's Sketchpad
Students discover rules for single transformations, rules for composition of transformations, when a figure has transformation symmetry, and if a transformation is congruent to its preimage.
Curated OER
Reflections in the Plane
Have your class explore the concept of reflections as they use Cabri Jr. to construct a triangle and reflect it over a line. Learners reflect shapes across the coordinate plane and across the lines y = x and y = -x.
Curated OER
Transformations
Several practice exercises suitable for any geometry class working on transformation, symmetry, and tessellation -- especially visual representations of image translation, rotation, and reflection, symmetry, tessellations and tangrams --...
Curated OER
Radial Letters
This art activity seems simple enough. As a way to introduce radial symmetry, spokes, or rays, learners create an artistic representation demonstrating radial symmetry. They stick a variety of letter stickers on their paper starting in...
Curated OER
Symmetry
In this recognizing line of symmetry instructional activity, students observe a half drawing of a car on graph paper and complete the drawing of the symmetrical shape. Students draw 1 object.
Curated OER
Introduction: Complete the Symmetry
In this symmetry worksheet, students observe a model and then complete the shape to make it symmetrical. This one-page worksheet contains two basic problems.
Curated OER
Lines of Symmetry
Fourth graders identify lines of symmetry using reflections and then construct figures that have one or more lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson plan, 4th graders use sets of shapes, pattern blocks, a mirror, and more.
Curated OER
Symmetry
In this symmetry activity, 2nd graders pick which picture out of 3 pictures has symmetry. Students complete 2 problems and draw the line of symmetry on the picture.
Curated OER
Symmetry that is Basic and Beautiful
Students explore lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, students divide and combine shapes along basic lines of symmetry. Students explore symmetry in real life objects.
Curated OER
Fun With Symmetry
Students manipulate shapes to find multiple lines of symmetry. They use color to visualize the lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Exploring Lines of Symmetry
Students investigate the concept of symmetry. They use cut out shapes that are folded in order to practice identifying the lines of symmetry. The lesson is observed by the teacher working with students for the purpose of scaffolding and...
Curated OER
Symmetry
Students make a design with pattern blocks and then pass them on to the rest of the class. They have to make them symmetrical and complete the design.
Curated OER
Everything You Wanted to Know About Symmetry
Second graders, in groups, rotate through four workstations that reinforce the concept of symmetry. They spend about fifteen minutes at each workstation.
Curated OER
Identifying Lines of Symmetry
In this identifying lines of symmetry worksheet, students look at 6 drawings and check "yes" or "no" to identify the lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Finding Lines of Symmetry
In this finding lines of symmetry worksheet, 2nd graders look at six drawings and mark yes or no to answer the question: "Is this a line of symmetry?"
Curated OER
Symmetry in Butterflies
Pupils create a butterfly displaying a mirror image of itself to show that it is symmetrical. In this symmetry lesson plan, students go over symmetry in different shapes and identify patterns in butterflies.
Curated OER
Symmetry Collage
First graders, in groups, studying symmetry, compose collages and bulletin boards.
Curated OER
The Task of the Mask
Students discover historical value and use of different African masks through research and literature. Students also relate different customs and traditions of ethnic groups to the masks.
Curated OER
Comparing and Contrasting
Pupils practice compare and contrast skills. In this science and language development lesson plan, students complete a T chart generating traits of a snail and a clam. Pupils complete a related worksheet.
