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...

Introduce your young adults to the important understanding that the money they receive from their paychecks is a net amount as a result of deductions from taxes. Other topics covered include federal, state, Medicare and social...

Students make three dimensional shapes with nets. In this nets lesson, students receive nets which they fold to make a three dimensional object. They predict what shape each net will make and verify it after making the net. They use the...

Pass along the knowledge of the great Sir Isaac Newton with this learning exercise on the laws of motion. Including three separate problems, each involving multiple parts and calculations, this resource is a great...

Identify the nets for prisms and other geometric shapes. Learners calculate the surface area of the rectangular prism then sketch the shapes of prisms and other polygons. Unfolded cereal boxes are used as a visual aid, great idea!

Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...

Pupils demonstrate their understanding of nets by designing a net of a box that contains 12 bottles. Given the full size top and side views of the bottle, they determine the dimensions needed for the finished box. The directions do...

The sky is the limit when printing custom 3-D shape templates from this site. Not only can you pick your shape and pattern, there is an option to upload an image for the different sides of the geometric shape. Let your learners have fun...

Upper elementary and middle schoolers explore the properties of various polygons. They use video, resource links, and engage in hands-on activities in order to construct geometric nets. This fine plan should lead to increased...

Why are only four colors needed to color webs from regular pentagons, not five? An assessment task requires young mathematicians to first construct regular pentagons using a compass and straightedge, then has them consider a shape...

Individuals draw a net for a hexagonal pyramid — with some stipulations. The net must contain the printed images so they appear correctly on the box, along with tabs to glue the box together. 

Shine some light on nets. Using a creative assessment task, pupils create a net that would fold up into a hexagonal box and include the tabs needed for gluing the box together. Scholars then draw candles on each of the sides and the top...

Make it a tight fit. Given drawings of a smoothie bottle, pupils need to determine the size of a box to hold 12 bottles. Scholars draw a net to show the dimensions needed to create a closed box that would not allow the bottles to move...

Accuracy is key! Using the detailed resource, scholars practice their presicion skills, taking online spelling and typing tests. Next, they demonstrate accuracy by calculating the gross and net pay of five hypothetical employees.

Time to move into the third dimension! Learn the names of the geometric solids and count faces, edges, and vertices. Then learn to recognize nets that create a given solid. 

Don't let your young adults get lost in the alphabet soup of their paychecks and federal income taxes. Using sample pay stubs and reproductions of government forms, your class members will identify the purpose of such forms as a W-4 and...

In this nets and 3 dimensional figures instructional activity, 5th graders look at the 3D figure and the net and mark yes or no if it is an accurate representation.

In this nets learning exercise, students determine which figures will make given nets, then write the names of 4 given shapes. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this 3D figure worksheet, students observe the net of a 3D figure where you open up the figure and tell if it is an accurate representation of that figure. Students complete this for 3 figures.

In this math net instructional activity, students cut out, fold, and assemble a closed cylinder. Students use the net provided to make the three dimensional figure.

Three solid figures are lined up down the left side of the page to be compared to three nets down the right side. Learners simply decide if the corresponding net matches the solid figure. Be aware that the publisher's watermark is...

Investigate the properties of three-dimensional figures with this Arctic-themed math lesson. Beginning with a class discussion about different types of solid figures present in the classroom, young mathematicians are then given a...

In this cube worksheet, students work with nets of a cube and determine which net makes an cube. Students answer 7 questions.

Students differentiate triangular prisms from other prisms using nets. In this geometry activity, students define the properties of a triangular prism and its symmetry. They build a triangular prism moving lines around.
