Students scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...

Students complete a two-week unit involving design and construction concepts. They watch a PowerPoint presentation about geometric shapes, draw the fourteen shapes incorporated in bridge construction, and in small groups design, build,...

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...

Guernsey, Jersey, Holstein. Brangus, Charoloais, Herford. Here’s a truly cross-curricular resource that combines language arts, science, math, and visual arts activities as class members learn to distinguish between beef and dairy...

Learners discuss and study the word symmetry. They examine letters of the alphabet, shapes, and artwork and decide if they are symmetrical or not. Then they create their own symmetry monsters.

Second graders manipulate triangles to discover the concepts of slides, flips and turns of a geometric shape.

Students study geometric shapes, lines, and the primary colors as they create Mondrian-like art prints.

Eighth graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with examining two dimensional figures with different properties that include circles, triangles, queadrilaterals, etc... They identify the types of figures that is identified as polygons.

Students design a collage of pictures for a yearbook that make a shape. They determine the area of the shape and the price of putting the collage in the yearbook.

In this math facts review worksheet, students read the description of each math term and try to guess what the answer is. Students may check their attempts by circling the third letter in the box which gives the answer.

Play a coordinates game to encourage collaborative learning and grid use! Learners plot points on grids and play a game that challenges them to locate a specific point on a coordinate grid by using horizontal and vertical movements.

Solve story problems using fractions or decimals. Then, determine the reasonableness of answers using estimation.The detailed lesson includes essential questions, vocabulary, a materials list, and links to related units.

Students explore perimeter and area of regular and irregular polygons. They experiment with color squares and create different arrangements using the same number squares. Then they compare the area and perimeter measurements of each.

Second graders, through large screen monitor, study geometric design. They participate in a diagnostic assessment in which they use pnecils, scissors and paste.

Second graders gain an understanding of geometric shapes and spatial reasoning. They learn the attributes of solid shapes in everyday activities. Students compare geometric shapes to everday objects, finding things that serve a purpose...

Third graders experiment with, identify, and follow teacher-directed instruction toward understanding two-dimensional geometric shapes found within the environment. Groups of students utilize geoboards to help them explain geometric shapes.

Sixth graders use number cubes to explore volume of two-dimensional shapes. They roll a die and construct a shape using the numbers rolled as measurements of the sides. They estimate the volume of a given object, and then use the...

In this math terms puzzle worksheet, students read the description for each math term. Students try to guess what each term is. Students circle the third letter in the box to check their answers.

Set your pupils up to start on geometry by teaching them some introductory terminology. Pupils learn the terms by reading a short passage and looking at examples. They then respond to five questions related to the text.

Building blocks have more uses than simply entertaining children. Young mathematicians calculate the volume of a given cube, and then calculate the volume and surface area of a prism formed from multiple cubes.

Third graders construct and use vocabulary flipbooks to draw and describe three-dimensional figures. They utilize worksheets and access websites imbedded in this plan which help them construct their books.

Fourth graders discuss and examine examples of the different types of angles. After learning the names of the geometric shapes students identify the types of angles and then complete the Kidspiration activity, Identifying Angles.

Third graders engage in a lesson that focuses on the attributes and forming of a cube. They construct a cube using different combinations while comparing a square with only two-dimensions. Students fold paper while following the...
