In this stars rise in the east activity, students use geometry to show how the Earth rotates from west to east and why celestial bodies appear to rise in the east and set in the west. Students draw a figure and label given points in...

This PowerPoint addresses fifth grade math concepts, focusing mostly on geometry. The interactive math review game is in a "Jeopardy" style format and enables students to revisit the topics in geometry such as polygons, quadrilaterals...

For this geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve problems that are based on the theorems associated with perpendicular and angle bisectors of a triangle.  An application on the coordinate plane is included.  The one page...

Pupils construct models of various tricubes, tetracubes, and pentacubes that are possible, classify n-cubes into different groupings, and draw these figures on isometric dot paper giving true perspective to what they visualize.

High schoolers are introduced to the topic of congruence and proportions in Geometry. Using technology, they construct and validate the properties of various geometric figures and identify whether it is congruent or proportion to the...

In this three-dimensional shapes geometry lesson plan, learners identify geometric solids and name their properties. They define "face," "edge," and "vertex," and construct geometric solids using marshmallows as vertices and toothpicks...

An outstanding lesson on teaching the basic shapes and polygon names to young geometers is here for you. In it, learners investigate the role of basic polygons in the strength of structures. They use geoboards, rubber bands, streamed...

In this three- and two- dimensional geometry learning exercise, 7th graders solve 12 various problems related to geometric shapes and measurement. They first use paper and a pencil to sketch the front, side, back, top and bottom views of...

Seventh graders explore the characteristics of three-dimensional figures. They compare the nets of figures. Students describe the relationship between the nets draw and the solid. They identify the vertices, edges and faces of the...

Students explore the world of geometric shapes by writing poetry. They use the Diamante Poetry worksheet. They select one geometric shape and, using the template, create their own poem.

Fourth graders find the volume of solids. In groups, 4th graders use spinners to determine the dimensions of solids. They construct the shapes, creating a model of the figure Students count the cubes in the model to determine the...

Transform your lesson plan on transformations. Learners use given congruent triangles and tracing paper to determine the single transformation that carries one to the other. The concept is extended to combinations of transformations...

Encourage your scholars to play with math using this shapes partner game, where players toss a number cube (possibly a die) to determine which geometric shape to draw. The students toss the cube a second time to determine whether they...

Students explore probability by using games based on probable outcomes of events. They name all of the possible outcomes of an event and express the likelihood of such an event occurring.

Students investigate shapes in art. In this visual arts lesson, students examine the ancient Panamanian "Plaque" and identify the geometric shapes in the art piece. Students combine basic shapes to make an artistic picture of their own.

Teach your class to think outside the box. Scholars use the concept of equality to solve a problem in the assessment task. They determine how to use a scale to identify the one box out of a set of nine boxes that is heavier than the others.

Students observe how certain geometric shapes can be used to make some structures rigid and others flexible. The activity involves construction of a 30-60 right triangle, folding while following directions, and identifying polygons.

Learners construct polygons. They identify attributes of three-dimensional shapes. Students name common three-dimensional shapes. They draw three-dimensional shapes, and sort three-dimensional shapes. Learners use K'NEX materials sets to...

Students identity simple geometric shapes. In this early geometry lesson, the teacher introduces students to triangles, squares, and rectangles, then students identify and classify the shapes as they are found in the classroom. To...

For this math worksheet, students examine a pattern of geometric shapes. After looking at the sequence of shapes and deciding what the pattern is, students choose the shape that would come next. There are 4 problems.

Students investigate how to draw and classify two and three dimensional figures (squares, triangles, rectangles.)

Students explore geometric vocabulary through creation of shapes on a geoboard. They present design attributes, transfer of design, and color-coding components mix to create a fun and exciting lesson plan that stretches student thinking.

Students investigate geometric shapes by creating figures on a plane. In this polygon lesson, students complete a worksheet based on the angles in a power polygon. Students identify the different types of polygons and define their...

In this math worksheet, students analyze 6 geometric figures. Students label each polygon with its name and measure each inside angle. Students are instructed to compare their measurements with those of a partner.
