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.

Young mathematicians investigate the use of symmetry in graphic design. After first learning about reflection, translational, and rotational symmetry, children use this new knowledge to identify symmetry in letters of the...

Second graders demonstrate understanding of symmetry and identify objects that have symmetry. They use a mirror to get a visual illustration of what symmetry is. They create a collage of symmetrical pictures they find in magazines.

Students identify different geometric shapes, and arrange them artistically in original jewelry designs.

Seventh graders investigate 2-D and 3-D objects. In this geometry lesson, 7th graders begin to understand spatial reasoning. Students look at pictures of the NYC Skyline and discuss what it looks like from different views. Students use...

Students explore how geometry is used on the composition of artworks by artists from different cultures. This lesson plan is equally suited for a Math or Art classroom at the late-elementary or early-middle school level.
