What a wonderful resource! Learners create two-dimensional shapes according to the instructions stated, use the squares to make a triangular prism, a cube, and a pyramid, and identify features of plane shapes, among a myriad of other...

Students examine the concepts of geometry used by Paul Goble in his book Adopted By The Eagles. After analyzing Mr. Goble's work they create an original piece featuring symmetry, pattern, repetition, and other principles of geometry....

Logical thinking is at the forefront of this jam-packed lesson, with young mathematicians not only investigating geometric concepts but also how they "know what they know". Through each activity and worksheet, learners wrestle with...

Graphing paper, pencil, ruler, protractor, and compass, all get replaced or supplemented with this dynamic geometry application. Here, you can create, move, and scale many different shapes, as well as, explore and change their properties...

Students analyze symmetries of quadrilateral tilings and discover how various types of symmetries, used alone or in combination, can generate the same pattern in more than one way.

Second graders and teachers identify geometric vocabulary word by searching a geometry website. They create a Quilt Word Wall using the geometry words.

Pupils define properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the relationship between two and three dimensional objects. They use Cabri technology to graph their figures.

Students explore the properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify properties of two and three dimensional shapes. They use Cabri technology to create polygons and solve problems.

Students scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...

Students compare and contrast angles and identify them as acute, obtuse, right, or straight angles. They create rays and angles using uncooked spaghetti, read and discuss key vocabulary terms, and complete a variety of geometry worksheets.

Fifth graders examine the many uses of coordinate grids. In this graphing lesson, 5th graders write data driven equations, discuss the x and y-axis, and determine if using 2 or 3 ordered pairs is better.  Students complete several...

Students identify shapes that will tessellate. They construct a tessellation using transformations. Students identify transformations in tessellations. They identify applications of transformations such as tiling and fabric design.

Third graders slide, turn, and flip their bodies to explain sliding, turning, and flipping geometric shapes.

Third graders are introduced to the meanings of the concepts slides, turns, and flips in how they relate to Geometry. As a class, they use their bodies to demonstrate how each term should look like. To end the lesson, they apply the...

In this geometry skills activity, students graph a triangle using the provided information and then respond to 3 short answer questions regarding it.

In this online interactive math skills worksheet, students solve 10 multiple choice math problems regarding symmetry. Students may view the correct answers.

Geometers investigate patterns and symmetry, and examine the artwork of M.C. Escher on the Internet. They compare his style to the floor and ceiling tiles in the classroom. If you have ImageBlender™ software, you could have your...

Students make calculations in order to construct a kite in the shape of an isosceles right triangle. In this kite lesson students calculate altitude of their flying kites using a formula.

In this symmetry worksheet, students view and draw border patterns and answer short answer questions about it. Students complete 3 activities.

Young scholars discuss how color construct meaning in art. They will demonstrate a technical knowledge and creative use of formal elements and principals of design. Students then discuss the way their selection of color contributed to...

In this spelling list learning exercise, learners practice spelling words that are sight words, r controlled vowels, and vocabulary. Students practice spelling 21 words total.  

NOT A LESSON Students

Fourth graders read Mary's problem and make sure that they examine it. After some discussion, let the class work on the problem in their groups. They then take turns in putting a picture of their arrangement on the board.

In this math worksheet, students look for the words that are related to the math words used in the practice of geometry. They also practice spelling.
