In this 3-D shapes activity, students practice identifying 8 3-D shapes with their following precise names: cube, cuboid, square based pyramid, cone, cylinder, tetrahedron, octagonal prism and hexagonal prism.

Learners identify three-dimensional forms in various buildings and construct three-dimensional paper forms.

Third graders identify two and three dimensional shapes used in architectural designs by viewing images on the Internet.  For this geometry lesson, 3rd graders create their own building designs and identify the geometric shapes that...

Here is a math lesson that is really a visual arts lesson in disguise! In it, pupils utilize their knowledge of geometric shapes and forms to create a detailed version of a cylinder. The instructions on how to go about the task are very...

Middle schoolers evaluate mathematical problems using the formulas for volume. They recognize "perspective" in different shapes including cubes, pyramids and cylinders. Students practice on brainstorming all the different shapes and how...

Students explore geometry by completing a math worksheet in class. For this shape identification lesson, students identify the characteristics associated with 15 solid geometric shapes. Students identify patterns between vertices, edges...

First graders identify basic shapes (circle, square, rectangle, triangle) and describes the attributes of each. They use magazines to find examples of each shape, and then make a collage.
