Building a six-sided number cube has never been so easy. Just cut out the figure on the solid lines, fold on the dotted lines, connect the sides together using glue or tape, and there you have it!

In this online math worksheet, students calculate the surface area of a variety of solid figures. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A terrific...

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,...

Acute angles, nets, and vertices are only a few terms that a set of flash cards includes. Among the 108 cards, two types are available; word cards printed in bold-faced lettering, and corresponding definition cards equipped with an...

When youngsters are first gaining experience with the volume of solid figures, this is a well-suited worksheet. Nine figures, all made of unit cubes, are drawn for your class to estimate volumes with. Two simple test preparation...

In this geometry skills activity, students respond to 4 questions that require them to examine geometric figures and change them to solid figures and plane figures.

Explore finding the surface area of composite figures. Building on the previous lessons in the 29-part series, the 24th installment examines the surface area of three-dimensional solids. The focus is on decomposing composite figures and...

Learners examine three different geometric solid shapes and their nets. They answer multiple choice, spatial awareness questions where they determine which view: front, top or either, the net represents.

Double the dimensions, quadruple the surface area. Pairs build similar prisms and compare the ratios of their surface areas and volumes to the ratio of the heights. Given two similar cones, partners determine the ratios of the lateral...

In this solid figures activity, students read the word problems about the solid figures and find the figure that follows the rule.

Learners investigate solids. In this geometry lesson, students use toothpicks and gum drops to solve problems. They create visuals to help them see what is happening to the shapes.

In this solid figures worksheet, learners learn to identify solid figures by their faces, edges, and vertices. Students solve six word problems about the solid figure characteristics.

Students define a plane and a solid shape. In this geometry lesson, students compare and contrast different geometric shapes as they relate to solids. They name the geometric solids based on their sides and edges.

A dimensional resource teaches viewers to recognize 2-D views of 3-D objects and how to match nets with their 3-D figures. Individuals draw different views of three-dimensional objects including views from the front, side...

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...

Where does the line of rotation need to be to get a cone? Pupils respond to three questions involving rotating a right triangle about different lines. The scholars describe the solid created along with providing details about its...

Young geometers explore relationships between units of measure and objects. Three activities provide varied opportunities to practice. Learners calculate the volume of two cylinders made by rolling a piece of paper vertically and...

A list of instructions for this exciting Geometry Jeopardy game is included on slide 2. There are a total of 25 clues and 5 categories, including: solids, triangles, lines, angles, and grab bag. Tip: Play this Jeopardy game with your...

In this solid figures worksheet, students choose a shape from the box that fits the bar graph totals for the faces, edges, and vertices. Students then complete the last bar graph using the one unused shape.

In this math activity, students study the properties of plane shapes and solid figures. Students fill out a chart after they have calculated the number of flat surfaces, edges and vertices.

Students reinforce geometric concepts by playing "Guess My Solid." Through a process of elimination, they determine the shapes of mystery solids. Finally, students use various materials to construct their own geometric figures.

See all sides of the story with a worksheet on geometric shapes! After studying the example at the top, which matches polygons with solid figures, second graders circle shapes that are named in the directions. Next, they match polygons...

Investigate the volume of irregular figures in an inquiry-based exercise. Presented with an irregularly shaped box filled with water, learners must predict the level of water when it is tipped on its side. The class can divide...

What would a meal be without the taters? The question is, how long does it take to peel those potatoes? Given the rate of peeling one potato, scholars predict the time it takes to peel the bag. The twist is that the first potato was...
