Drawing Lines of Symmetry
Third graders explore the concept of symmetry using geometric shapes, capital letters and various other shapes. They fold shapes to show symmetry, draw lines of symmetry and create symmetrical designs.
Curated OER
Cross-Stitching a Frog Bookmark
Students identify symmetry and create their own frog design. Students apply hand-eye coordination in placing their designs of cross-stitch netting. Students identify with new textures. Students present and analyze their design once...
Curated OER
Geometry Practice Exam
In this reflections and rotations instructional activity, students reflect and rotate lines in graphs and draw lines of symmetry through patterns. Students complete 24 problems.
Curated OER
Draw the Other Half
How can you make the two halves symetric? Scholars use the concept of symmetry to complete five images which are only half-drawn. The fun part about this exercise is that they aren't copying geometric shapes. There is a face, sun, kite,...

Geometric Shapes
In this geometric shape instructional activity, students complete a total of 6 questions about geometric shapes, labeling figures, drawing lines of symmetry, finding right angles, faces and sides.
Curated OER
Pattern Block Design
For this using pattern blocks to create a design worksheet, students read and apply criteria to create a design with pattern blocks, trace it, and draw lines of symmetry. Students complete four pattern block activities.
Curated OER
Perfectly Puzzling Pentominoes
Second graders utilize manipulatives (pentominoes) to demonstrate knowledge of: lines of symmetry, slides, reflections (flips), rotations (turns), area, and perimeter. This lesson plan gives students a meaningful way to practice these...

Geometry of Democracy
Students explore the architecture of New England by identifying geometric shapes. In this architectural lesson, students examine photographs of classic building architecture and use a transparency to trace geometric shapes they...
Curated OER
Mondrian, Math, and Amazing Colors
Pupils study geometric shapes, lines, and the primary colors as they create Mondrian-like art prints.
Curated OER
Turn Symmetry
Fourth graders observe geometric patterns to determine if they show rotational or point symmetry. They participate in the a demonstration lesson with a triangle. They create their own designs that show rotational or point symmetry.
Curated OER
Upside Down and All Around
Second graders discuss what a line of symmetry is, then demonstrate how to fold shape cutouts to generate lines of symmetry. They demonstrate slides, flips, and turns with objects, and write explanations of changes they observe in pictures.
Curated OER
Pattern Block Symmetry
In this symmetry worksheet, students fill in the shapes with pattern blocks to create a design so the dotted line is one of symmetry. Students trace and label each pattern and then explain how they know the design has a line of symmetry.
Curated OER
Sneaky Peeky Symmetry Book
Students examine lines of symmetry with different shapes. Then students create their own books of symmetry with different two-dimensional shapes on each page.
Curated OER
Boarding of Symmetrical Shapes
Second graders use geoboards to model polygons and to practice finding lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Symmetry
Students examine the concept of symmetry. They use photographs in front of a mirror to see symmetry. They write an explanation or drawing of how a mirror always produces a line of symmetry.
Curated OER
Properties of 2D Shapes
In this math worksheet, students study 5 basic geometric shapes. Students write a description for each, naming the shape, telling about the edges, the lengths and the corners.
