Students review shapes and numbers orally using a set of flash cards. They trace each shape following the arrows and then write the name and orally identify the shape and its name.

In this properties of geometric shapes worksheet, 4th graders write the words all, some or no to complete twelve statements about the properties of the shapes.

Second graders explore geometric shapes. In this lesson about geometry, 2nd graders create their own vest using geometric shapes. Students work with a partner and fit their partner for the vest they design. Students understand geometric...

For this shape worksheet, students are given sets of shapes, selecting those given in a set of questions: squares, rectangles, circles or triangles. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Fourth graders use pattern blocks to explore areas of polygons. They explain that the answers to the area of the same polygon vary according to the units of measurement used. They visualize how different units of measurement can be used...

Students identify attributes of different geometric shapes. In this geometry lesson, students view a  PowerPoint presentation on shapes and use attribute blocks to examine the corners and edges of each shape. Students work together...

Students create a picture of an actual scene or overlap the called out lines or shapes into a space-breaker. If someone calls out a line or shape a student had not planned to use in the art, they have to figure out some way to use it...

Students investigate basic concepts of chance and probability. They make a number cube to predict which number might be rolled the most often out of 20 consecutive rolls and tally the results. Number cube template included.

Learners use streaming videos, web sites, and hands on activities students to explore matter. They focus on how temperature affects matter and what the particles look like in the states of matter.

Learners demonstrate and understanding of the three types of angles using triangles and quadrilaterals. In this angles lesson plan, students learn about acute, obtuse and right angles. They use cut-outs to find the areas of triangles and...

This engaging presentation would be helpful for your young learners of geometry. Pupils are given clues as to what a shape may be, then they have to use those clues to guess what shape is being described. Shapes used are the circle,...

This is a fun reinforcement activity that will provide the class with practice at recognizing shapes based on their properties. They are given a series of clues which they use to draw a shape on their white boards. This is repeated three...

Approach geometry concepts with youngsters using visual guides like this one to find area. They draw a rectangle, segmenting it into rows and columns. Scholars determine how many square units they see in the partitioned rectangle. They...

After introducing the concept and formula for finding the area of a square, try this lesson. Fifth graders will use their prior knowledge to break apart various shapes in order to determine area. This lesson includes several examples,...

Students review the names of the shapes by holding up each one and place the shapes on the work mat so that all children can see them. They then review attributes by posing different questions.

Your statisticians draw several samplings from the same data set, some randomized and some not, and consider the distribution of the sample means of the two different types of samplings. The exercise demonstrates that non-random samples...

Young explorers review the basic shapes (circle, triangle, square, rectangle) and practice putting them together to make new shapes. Given an outline of a pond, they recreate it by combining other shapes.

Explore the concept of multiplication by using arrays. Classmates use arrays to gain a better understanding of multiplication. They break arrays apart to model the distributive property of multiplication over addition. The relationship...

Students identify basic two-dimensional shapes. They are able to identify the four basic two-dimensional shapes: squares, rectangles, triangles, and circles. Students write/draw in their learning logs a reflection of what they noticed...

Participants who use this resource will apply the Pythagorean Theorem to show whether or not the shaded triangle inscribed in a rectangle is a right triangle. Once all of the sides on the shaded triangle are found, it is important that...

Students discover the story behind Thanksgiving through comparing and contrasting what pilgrims were thankful for, memorizing Thanksgiving poems, and creating a placemat that depicts the poem.

What are polygons? Learners find the perimeter of various geometric figures that the teacher has drawn in chalk on the sidewalk. A worksheet to record their measurements is provided. Get your third graders outside and exploring the world...

Learners investigate the concept of perimeter. They design there own figure and measure the perimeter of it. The lesson is given the context of the shape being a path that is traveled by a ladybug. This provides the shape of the plane...

In this syllables activity, students circle the words with 2 syllables in them. Student have 20 words to read and to choose from.
