Get learners' minds rotating and reflecting while looking for symmetry. Pupils investigate figures to determine the number of lines of symmetry and if the figure has rotational symmetry. Classmates work together in groups to find out the...

Inscribing a square in a circle brings up a number of interesting geometry topics including triangle congruence and how to prove a quadrilateral is a square. This activity is followed up by finding the area of the square and determining...

In this symmetry worksheet, students analyze a picture of a hexagon folded into sixths with black parts to be cut out. Students draw what the snowflake will look like when it is unfolded.

Second graders investigate the task of making a large hexagonal plate by putting together smaller ones. The activity has detailed example problems for the teacher to use during direct instruction. The manipulative activities strengthen...

Students identify shapes that match specific shape descriptions involving a range of geometric terms and correct polygon names. They utilize a mathematics educational software program to gain practice.

In this mathematics instructional activity, students solve a number of problems by counting each shape and graphing the amount to the right in height. Then they circle the shape that appears the most often on the sheet.

Eighth graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with examining two dimensional figures with different properties that include circles, triangles, queadrilaterals, etc... They identify the types of figures that is identified as polygons.

Learners participate in a hands-on activity that shows the independence of perimeter and area for simple irregular figures.

In this area worksheet pupils read story problems, determine the necessary information to solve the problem. They find the amount of material needed to construct three-dimensional figures. Students determine the greatest and least area...

Sixth graders investigate tessellations and their origins. Students trace triangles to form a tessellation. They measure the angle of equilateral triangles. Students locate the line of symmetry, they create geometric squares,...

Using a word bank, mathematicians fill out a crossword puzzle using 9 clues. Each clue describes a shape, using details such as the number of sides, angle degrees, and the shape category. For example: "A quadrilateral with four equal...

Students review three types of polygons that are triangles, squares, and hexagons. They use a computer program to draw various types of tessellations. The students use the drawing of a honeybee as inspiration.

Second graders use geoboards to model polygons and to practice finding lines of symmetry.

Students measure prisms and determine their volume. In this measurement and reasoning lesson, students estimate the volume and area of prisms. They measure given boxes. Students use paper to create prisms and cylinders. They determine...

Students produce original tessellations, using equilateral triangles where three unique symmetrical faces rotate, use shape, pattern/repetition, and color to create a striking composition, and create "beasties" inspired by bestiaries of...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders solve problems with quadrilaterals. They calculate the sum of the angles, find missing angles and identify properties of quadrilaterals. There are 16 questions with an answer key.

Let imaginations run wild as participants design animal pens. A performance task challenges young mathematicians to determine the perimeter or a missing side length of different animal pens. They then design pens that meet given...

Students explore circles through the use of octagons. They inscribe a circle in a regular octagon and find the area and perimeter of the hexagon with respect to the radius of the circle. Students present their findings to the class.

Fifth graders play Battleshapes which is a variation of Battleship with geometry. In this geometry lesson, 5th graders get a graph paper with four quadrants. They call out coordinate points and attempt to sink their opponents shapes.
