Students study geometric shapes and practice naming them properly. In this geometry lesson, students work in groups to give definitions of the vocabulary to each other in their own words. Students also visit a lower grade and teach...

Students identify both two and three-dimensional shapes. In this geometric shapes activity, students listen to a teacher led activity about the island of Puerto Rico. They look at the symbols and shapes on "Puerto Rico Quarter Reverse"...

First graders locate and identify solids in the schoolyard. In this geometric solids lesson, 1st graders locate two solids on the playground. They work as a group to compare and contrast them according to shape, texture, weight, size,...

In this geometry worksheet, 6th graders study comprehensive facts pertaining to volume and measurement of geometric, three-dimensional figures. Students solve for 59 problems showing their work.

Young scholars explore various polygons and examine how shapes can be manipulated in a variety of ways. In this shape tool instructional activity, students identify geometric shapes in two dimensions. Young scholars identify and...

In this geometric patterns worksheet, students learn to solve problems that use geometric patterns and solid figures. Students solve six word problems.

In this geometric shapes worksheet, learners analyze similar shapes and find the missing length using a proportion. There are no examples.

Students complete activities for geometric shapes and multiplication. In this multiplication lesson, students watch a video about carpets and square foot multiplication problems. Students then work in pairs to solve the main problem in...

In this geometric shapes worksheet, students identify 4 drawings as polygons or not, 1 drawing as regular or not and then write the name of 3 solid figures.

In this geometry worksheet, students analyze 3 figures made of blocks. For each figure, students study a second image and indicate if it is a top view, front view or either.

Students compare and contrast similar two and three dimensional shapes within cooperative groups.

In this math worksheet, students examine the geometric figures assuming the density is uniform throughout. Then they take notice of the rotational motion potential for each. Then they apply this knowledge to answer questions as directed.

In this color and geometric shapes worksheet, students examine a chart with 16 figures with their color words printed underneath each one. Students answer the 6 questions using the information on the chart.

In this geometry skills worksheet, students solve 4 problems that require them to calculate volume and surface area of geometric figures. In 2 problems students work backwards to calculate length.

Learners play a game with shapes. They work in groups to identify the names and characteristics of various shapes. They give each other clues to see if others can identify the shape being described. This is a great hands on activity.

Your learners connect the new concepts of transformations in the coordinate plane to their previous knowledge using the solid vocabulary development in this unit. Like a foreign language, mathematics has its own set of vocabulary terms...

Learners use materials to build, investigate, and draw two-dimensional shapes (polygons). They combine the shapes they have built and draw from the pile to begin a round-robin activity to name and determine the attributes of a selection...

Here is a cute problem that requires visualizing two-dimensional shapes within a three-dimensional object, and using properties of triangles and the Pythagorean theorem to solve a real-world problem. There is a small mistake in this...

The class braids irrational numbers, Pythagoras, and perimeter together. The mini-assessment requires scholars to use irrational numbers and the Pythagorean Theorem to find perimeters of rugs. The rugs are rectangular, triangular,...

Pupils design a fence for a backyard pool. Scholars develop a fence design based on given constraints, determine the amount of material they need, and calculate the cost of the project. 

Model good modeling practices. Young mathematicians first learn about cross sections and solids of revolution. They then turn their attention to special right triangles and to the Laws of Sine and Cosine.

Sew up pupil interest with an engaging, hands-on instructional activity. Learners first design a sports bag given constraints on the dimensions of fabric. They then evaluate provided sample responses to identify strengths and weaknesses...

In the eighth segment of a 33-part unit, learners look at equations that do not appear to be linear at first glance. The equations are proportions where the numerators and denominators may have more than one term. To round out the...

Unfortunately for young mathematicians, the world isn't made entirely of parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids. After first learning the area formulas for these common shapes, students apply this new knowledge to...
